We are calling on all singers, dancers, acrobats, actors, models, musicians, industry representatives, managers, venue organisers and industry hirers to have your say on entertainment industry laws.
We are reviewing the Entertainment Industry Act 2013, the law that sets out protections for more than 49,000 performers and supports the industry in NSW.
This is a standard review to make sure the law is up to date, relevant and reflects the changes to the entertainment sector.
We are seeking feedback on:
- industry representatives (reps) and their obligations
- dispute resolution between performers and industry reps or hirers
- penalty and enforcement arrangements
- a public register
- duty of care and due diligence guidelines.
We want to hear from:
- performers and parents or guardians of child performers
- members of the public interested in entertainment industry law
- industry representatives
- associations, consumers and community groups.
We have prepared a discussion paper, which has more details. You can also refer to the documents and links section and Entertainment Industry Act 2013 for more information.
Tell us what you think
Your comments and suggestions will help us better understand how the current laws are working.

Your privacy
Privacy collection notice
Have your say consultations are run by the NSW Department of Customer Service (McKell Building, 2-4 Rawson Place, Haymarket NSW 2000).
We are interested in hearing from the community and will use the information we collect from you to help develop the programs and services that NSW Government provides.
We are collecting only minimal personal information from you. We may collect basic information like your name and contact details, if you choose to provide them. You may provide some personal information in response to questions that we ask you. For example, we may ask you about your experiences or opinions about a particular topic.
Having your say is voluntary and you are not legally required to provide any personal information to us. For some consultations, though, you will not be able to have your say unless you agree to include your personal information.
If you do provide personal information to us, you have a right to access it, and can ask us to correct it if it is wrong.
We may share personal information you provide with other parts of the Department of Customer Service (for example, with our Data Analytics Centre) so that we can conduct analysis across all consultations and refine our engagement methodology.
Where we conduct a consultation on behalf of a partner agency, we would usually share the information that we collect with that agency. Partner agencies for each consultation are listed on the webpage for that consultation.
For privacy information about your use of the NSW Government website generally, please see the NSW Government’s website privacy statement.
