I refer to the engagement of “not for profit” groups in the delivery of government services in the State and ask: (a) For each of the portfolios under the Minister’s responsibility can the Minister outline the following: (i) List the name of, and funding given to, regional "not for profit" groups in 2019-20 and 2020-21 financial years; (ii) List the total resources paid for "not for profit" groups delivering government services for each of the 2019-20 and 2020-21 years, broken down into regional and metropolitan areas; (iii) List those "not for profit" groups who have been dropped from providing services in the 2019-20 and 2020-21 financial years; and (iv) For each of the "not for profit" groups who have been dropped from providing government funded services, list the basis for the decision to no longer fund them; and (b) Of the “not for profit” groups that have been dropped from government funding for the 2019-20 and 2020-21 financial years, can the Minister outline whether the service has been brought “in house”, is no longer provided, or is provided by another "not for profit" provider?
