South Australian Tourism Commission (SATC)

The following table provides the allocation of grant program/funds for 2018-19 and across the forward estimates (a-f):

Grant program/fund name Purpose of grant program/fund 2018-19 Actual 2019-20 Budget 2020-21 **Estimate $00 2021-22 **Estimate $00 2022-23 **Estimate $00
Regional Tourism Organisation Funding Local Contact Officer Services to support Regional Tourism Initiatives $514 998 $527 868 - - -
Regional Consumer Cooperative Marketing Fund (RCCM) To raise the tourism profile of South Australia and increase visitation to South Australia by delivery of the Cooperative Marketing Campaign as defined in accordance with the Agreement. $220,000 $220,000 - - -
Convention Bid Fund* -$130,909 - - - -


*The Convention Bid Fund bid fund was transferred to the Department of Trade, Tourism and Investment on 1 April 2019. The actuals listed are for grants paid (including refunds) pre transfer and do not include costs associated with hosting the 2019 World Routes. The reason this is negative is due to a refund received for the Australian Geoscience Convention (AGC) 2018 event from the Adelaide Convention Centre.

**It is not possible to forecast future costs across the forward estimates, because budgets are set annually based on operational requirements linked to the strategic plans developed and approved at board level. Therefore, the forward estimates are subject to decisions regarding internal strategic allocation of resources. Any estimate beyond 2019-20 will be unreliable.
