The Hon. J.W.

J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Minister for Environment and Conservation, Minister for Early Childhood Development, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister Assisting the Premier in Cabinet Business and Public Sector Management): The reduction in the 'Aboriginal Community Essential Services Grants' between 2006-07 and 2007-08 is primarily due to a number of Aboriginal Communities no longer requiring funding for purchasing generator fuel in 2007-08 to operate their own stand-alone Power Stations due to their connection to the new Central Power Station on the APY Lands. The reduction in the 'Anangu Pitjantjatjara Operating Grant' from 2006-07 to 2007-08 is due to the processing of additional 'one-off' payments in 2006-07 for funding towards the APY 25^th Year Celebration, consultation concerning APY Lands Rights legislation and reimbursement of legal costs re APY Land Rights matters.
