With the second grant I go specifically to the point of the extent to which this is a grant specific to my own electorate. The 56 natural resource management regions cover the entirety of Australia. Australia is divided up into 56 regions. Every one of these regions received a facilitator and that facilitator was funded. There was an advantage to my electorate to the extent that my electorate is contained within Australia, and no more.
