RDA Orana Chair John Walkom said the announcement of the projects going to full application provides an opportunity to further demonstrate how the project will meet the needs of the region.
“The quality of the projects received in our region was very high, making it a difficult choice.”
The ones chosen all took into the account the priorities of our Regional Plan and have the capacity to address the needs of the region,” Mr Walkom said.
“The projects have a strong level of community support and will have a positive long-term impact on our region and neighbouring regions and are ready to proceed.”
The list of projects selected across the RDA network that are proceeding to full application are available at www.regional.gov.au
The closing date for full applications is February 15, 2012. The Department will assess all applications to ensure compliance with the Guidelines.
