The ASU is alarmed to learn that over $150 million in
regional development grants may not be honoured by the new Federal
Government. This will have a huge negative impact on the delivery of
services and infrastructure to local communities.
The ASU, Australia's largest local government union, expresses our
concern over any cut backs to funding of projects and infrastructure for
local communities. Vital projects around the country rely on the
continuity of grants funding from the Federal Government.
