SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS • Significant challenges over the past 5 yrs incl: - limited capacity and capability (IT, research, project management, industry specific skills & systems) - proliferation of content on various platforms locally and internationally, easily accessible to children of all ages(online & physically) - proliferation of illegal unclassified content - increased platforms of exposure - funding inadequacy – limited allocation by NT and no significant growth in revenue generated from industry. - limited industry buy in of new amendments - absence of an effective performance information management system Greater need to educate parents, teachers and children
