New figures show that the Australian Government approved 596 donations under its cultural gifts program in 2006-07. This compares with 615 for the previous financial year. However, the total value of such donations rose from $A28.9m to $A33.4m in 2006-07. The cultural gifts program entitles people who donate artworks to certain public institutions to claim tax breaks.
