As part of the refresh, a number of improvements have been introduced to make the process simpler and more accessible:
- Application forms have been streamlined, with extended contact details removed. Only the primary applicant (and auspice partner, if relevant) is now required.
- A consistent assessment framework has been introduced for both Minor and Major applications, clearly outlined on page 1.
- All funding requests are now to be submitted GST exclusive, with GST applied during payment processing for registered applicants.
- Micro Grants (up to $1,000) have been designed for speed and simplicity, featuring fewer questions and faster turnaround times. These will remain open throughout the financial year, or until funds are fully allocated.
