WA Government Regional Grants Scheme                                                       

The Regional Grants Scheme is an initiative of Royalties for Regions that aims to improve economic and community infrastructure and services in regional Western Australia.

The latest round of WA Government funding has made $3.5m available to the South West community. The South West Development Commission is administering the program, supported by the WA Department of Regional Development and Lands.

The funding is provided to assist infrastructure, services and community projects, including the provision of headworks, and to assist in the broad development of the community. This includes the establishment of services and programs that will support the development of resilient communities and contribute to regional areas being vibrant and interesting places in which to live.

The current round of funding closes on February 10, 2010.

Contact the South West Development Commission for more information.
