Funding Methods

98 The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (25 October 2018). Can the Attorney-General advise:

Does the additional $1.3 million in funding from the commonwealth, and corresponding reduction in intragovernment transfers, relate to funding for community legal centres, and if so, how and why has the funding method changed?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): The Attorney-General has provided the following advice:

The commonwealth revenue reported against Program 7 Legislative and Policy Services relates to funding for community legal centres. The funding method for community legal centres has not changed. The budget is now correctly classified as commonwealth revenue.
