Rural Financial Counselling Service

In reply to Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (25 June 2024). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries): I have been advised:

Within this new budget allocation $360,000 has been set aside for the Rural Financial Counselling Service in 2024-25. This amount is indexed for each year in the forward estimates.

In addition to this, the South Australian government continues to provide $200,000 each year towards the core funding of the Rural Financial Counselling Service.

In total, $560,000 will be provided to this important service in 2024-25.
