They've since been removed from the statute books because they were temporary amendment mechanisms.\n- **Schedule 6** (still partially in force): This made permanent changes to three cultural institutions:\n  - **Art Gallery of NSW**: Added a rule that the Gallery's Trust must follow the Minister's directions\n  - **Australian Museum**: Same change—its Trust must follow the Minister's directions  \n  - **State Library of NSW**: Removed an old rule and replaced it with one saying the Library Council must follow the Minister's directions\n\n**Who it affects:**\n- NSW taxpayers (via the repealed revenue changes)\n- The three major cultural institutions and their governing bodies\n- The Arts Minister (who gained formal control over these institutions)\n\n**Why it matters:**\nThe Schedule 6 changes are significant because they brought three of NSW's most important cultural institutions under direct ministerial control. Before this, these bodies had more independence. This shift reflected a government view that major cultural institutions should be more accountable to the elected government of the day, though critics might see it as reducing their arm's-length independence."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006","history":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006/history","analysis":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/state-revenue-and-other-legislation-amendment-budget-measures-act-2006/documents"}}
