(1) The Minister for Regional Development; Lands announced the allocation of $45 million for the second round of the Regional Grants Scheme on 20 October 2009, which is administered by the nine Regional Development Commissions.  Each of the nine regions will distribute $5 million through a contestable Regional Grants Scheme and this will close 10 February 2010.
Ribbons of Blue organisations can apply through the Regional Grants Scheme to support their activities if they can demonstrate how the program meets the broad intent of the Royalties for Regions program objectives.

(3) Not applicable
