Component 4 is administered by the Canada Council for the Arts.
Financial assistance is provided through loans and contributions.
More information on this component will be available during the course of summer 2000. Component 6 is designed to support the Government of Canada in its efforts to foster the growth of this important cultural industry. Financial assistance is available to national, non-profit associations that undertake projects supporting federal policy development for the Canadian sound recording industry. An applicant must be recognized as a national, non-profit Canadian association which has been working in the sound recording industry for a period of at least 24 months. The project must comply with the annual priorities for policy research identified by the Department of Canadian Heritage, provide the Department with useful and relevant research reports, and deal with subjects which are national in scope and which have an impact on the development of the Canadian sound recording industry.
