I.K. HUNTER Legislative Council Bushfire Recovery Support In reply to the Hon. I.K. HUNTER (6 February 2020). The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council Bushfire Recovery Support The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): I have been provided the following advice: I can confirm that no commonwealth disaster relief funding has been provided for the state’s national park assets. Commonwealth funding under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (formerly the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements) for damage to public owned assets is subject to total disaster expenditure exceeding a threshold (2 per cent of state revenue). South Australia has only exceeded this threshold once since 2004-05 with reimbursement of $1,644,771 in expenditure incurred in 2007-08. The funding related to the following events: Mid to Far North floods in January 2007; July 2007 storms; Mid North floods in October 2007; and the Kangaroo Island fire in December 2007. The state has received funding under the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements for other natural disasters for emergency, re-establishment and recovery grants.
