888. Hon ALANNA CLOHESY to the
minister representing the Minister for Community Services:
I refer to the Department of Local
Government and Communities' confirmation to The Sunday Times that the department is no longer accepting applications for funding from social
innovation grants, the social enterprise fund or youth activities grants.
(1) For each of
the budgeted amounts allocated to each fund in 2013–14 —
(a) how much has
been spent to date; and
(b) how much of
the budgeted amount is expected to be spent in 2013–14?
(2) Of the
$2.05 million budgeted for the social enterprise fund over 2014–15, how
much does the department expect to spend over the course of that financial
year?
(3) In light
of the forthcoming review of the youth activities grants, will the commitment
for $800 000 over four years for the program be maintained?
