Published: May 30, 2023, 8:30 p.m.

Some good news has come for the screen production industry with the Government proposing a tweak to the current Screen Production Grant, starting with a name change to the screen production rebate.

The say the rebate will be made simpler, more competitive and easier to access.

This includes the post-production, digital and visual rebate returning to a flat rate of 20 per cent, and the qualifying expenditure threshold for the post-production, digital and visual effects rebate dropping from $500,000 to $250,000, enabling smaller productions to also benefit.

NZ Screen Producers Guild President Irene Gardiner joined Mike Hosking.
