Dear Australia Council for the Arts,

I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 pertaining to unfunded excellence over the last 10 years.
I am specifically interested in the number of applications received by the council for each grant round, those that were not funded, and those that were considered to be unfunded excellence. What was the total requested funds for each round, what was the amount funded, and how much funding would have been needed to fund the unfunded excellence.
In relation to the recent rounds since the major restructure, I am specifically interested in any documents concerning unfunded excellence across all funding categories.

Yours faithfully,
Benjamin
