Hon CARMEL SEPULONI: In April 2020, Infometrics provided a forecast of the economic impact of COVID-19 on the arts and creative sector. This included a job losses forecast and a sector GDP forecast. This forecast predicted an 11.7 percent reduction in employment and a loss of around 11,000 jobs to March 2021. In February 2021, Infometrics provided a new sector forecast to March 2021 which showed a decline in employment of 1.2 percent, a loss of 1,157 jobs. This forecast decline is significantly lower than the April 2020 forecast and is a positive sign that our Government's interventions are helping to secure our recovery.
