Can you please ask Ruth Harley why Screen Australia gives money for promotion of Australian movies to distributors like (edited by Mumbrella for legal reasons), but have not once audited them to see if the promotional/ marketing money is actually spent. Given the complete lack of visibility for Australian movies, it seems distributors just keep the money for themselves. Major issue.
