Community and Jobs Support Fund

315 The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (14 October 2020). As at 13 October 2020, how many grants had been paid from the Community and Jobs Support Fund?

(a) To whom were the grants paid?

(b) How much was each grant?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

In March 2020 in response to the impacts of COVID-19, the government announced the establishment of a $250 million Community and Jobs Support Fund. The government has subsequently added a further $15 million to the Fund, bringing the total value of the Community and Jobs Support Fund to $265 million.

The Budget Measures Statement (pages 8 and 9) released as part of the 2020-21 Budget outlined all of the approvals and expected timing of total payments from the Community and Jobs Support Fund.
