About 25 NSW councils were successful in getting a rate variation. At its extraordinary meeting last Thursday to set the rate, Council had to defer the matter until later in the day when the Minister’s advice arrived. Councillors then voted unanimously to set the rate and various other charges such as waste management fees.

This model was expanded upon by musicians in England and Germany during the late-1970s who developed the popular music style called Industrial as a fusion of experimental popular music sounds, performance art theatricality, and avant-garde composition.
