(Estimates Committee A) The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Premier Multicultural Affairs Funding The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised of the following 5EBI radio station is a valued organisation giving an important voice to local multicultural communities. I have been advised there has been no funding cut and that 5EBI multicultural radio station has received funding of $22,500 towards their annual radiothon for 2019-20. To ensure funding better reflects the needs and aspirations of our growing multicultural communities, the South Australian government completed a review of multicultural grants programs based on the comparative study of multicultural grants across different jurisdictions in Australia.​ Every eligible multicultural organisation in South Australia is given the same opportunity to present their case for government support and apply for the four different grant programs on a competitive basis.​ 5EBI is an eligible multicultural organisation and therefore can assess the following Multicultural Affairs grants: (1) Celebrate Together, (2) Advance Together, (3) Expand Together and (4) Stronger Together. I have been advised that under new eligibility requirements for the Multicultural Affairs Grants Programs, 5EBI may not be eligible to apply for grants that cater for fundraisers, but the organisation can apply for any of the 4 Multicultural funding streams for future projects.
