Auditor-General's Report

In reply to Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (3 November 2022).

The Hon. G.G. BROCK (Stuart—Minister for Local Government, Minister for Regional Roads, Minister for Veterans Affairs):

1. I am advised by Veterans SA that for the 2021-22 financial year, 21 applications were received under the ANZAC Day Commemoration Fund (the fund). Of those applications, six were unsuccessful due to not meeting the eligibility criteria and one application was withdrawn.

14 applications were approved under the fund and subsequently received grants totalling $81,788. Unspent funds from the allocated budget of $100,000 were not used for any other purpose and were not carried over.

2. South Australia has over 300 ex-service organisations and veteran groups, varying in size, activity and needs. Veterans SA works with these established groups as well as forging relationships with new and emerging groups. These groups include:

the Returned and Services League of Australia SA/NT and its sub-branches (139);

Unit and Ship Associations (118);

Legacy SA (18);

Navy Associations (8);

Partners of Veterans Associations (8);

Vietnam Veterans Associations (5);

Royal Australian Airforce Associations (4); as well as

Soldier On, Northern Veteran Network, Defence Member and Family Support, Defence Kidz, Defence Family Association and other kindred organisations.
