Thank you all so much for your hard work, your commitment and your patriotism. This is a national assignment, and you have availed yourselves creditably. You all deserve a standing ovation.
Based on the feedback that I have received, I have no doubt that the report you have just submitted is a culmination of painstaking efforts by all of you, and will go a long way not just in aiding the recovery of the Creative Industry from the negative effects of the pandemic, but also in putting the industry on the right path to sustainable growth in the years ahead.
The report, which is very rich and detailed, is also very timely, coming at a time that the Federal Government is looking more towards the Creative Industry to help revamp the economy, in the wake of the #Covid19 pandemic.
Let me assure you that we will study the report with the same seriousness that you employed in preparing it, with a view to ensuring its full implementation, within the realms of available resources.
Once again, thank you all for your sacrifice and commitment. I look forward to working with you as we strive to give the Creative
Industry its pride of place
Thank you all
