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 for each of the last 3 financial years; (ii) List the total resources paid to “not for profit” groups delivering
government services for each of the last 3 financial years, broken down
into regional and metropolitan areas; (iii) List those “not for profit” groups who have been dropped from providing
services since coming to government in March 2017, broken down into
regional and metropolitan areas; 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” services that have been dropped from government
funding for each of the last 3 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?
