I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) As of 31 March 2022, a total of 40 applications
had been received from 26 organisations. Some organisations have
submitted more than one application in the grant round and therefore this
response is related to application numbers and not provider numbers. Nine
applications have been split to allow grant recipients to be notified of the
outcome of finalised camp assessments where possible. These nine applications
are included in the figure above. It should be noted that applications may be
for multiple camps across all time periods identified. As such, applications
may be included in multiple parts of the response, which will therefore not
total the 40 applications received.
(a) 29;
(b) 25;
(c) 31;
(d) four.
(2) As noted above, organisations may apply for
funding for multiple camps throughout term 1, 2022. Therefore , approval
data cannot be applied to the time periods identified in (1). The department
does not record data in the format requested. Applications are recorded as ''approved
for funding'', if eligible, whether this be fully funded or partially funded, or ''not approved for funding''.
As of 31 March 2022, 20 applications had been fully assessed and
applicants were notified of the outcome. Of these, 19 applications were
approved for funding, one applicant was not approved for funding and 20
applications are still under assessment.
