MEASURES AFFECTING OUTCOME 1 Backing Australia’s Sporting Ability - Tough on Drugs in Sport Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will provide $7.4m over 4 years to further implement its Tough on Drugs in Sport strategy. The funding will cover aspects of three key elements of the strategy: enhancing drug detection research; implementing international best practice in testing; and fostering international collaboration. Specifically, funding will be available for research to refine the blood-urine EPO test and address the detection of other substances, to incorporate the EPO test approved for use at the Sydney Olympics into Australia’s domestic testing program on an ongoing basis, and to provide continued leadership and support to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). Further Information The blood-urine test for EPO was devised by Australian scientists and approved by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for use at the Sydney Games. Its further refinement will ensure that an effective and robust EPO test can be applied both in and out of competition. The establishment of WADA has been a major initiative in the international fight against doping. Australia has taken a prominent role in supporting WADA. Governments from over 40 countries are expected to make annual contributions totalling up to 50 per cent of WADA's budget. Funding will enable the Australia Government to make a fair and equitable contribution to WADA and demonstrate Australia’s continued participation and leadership. See also the related measures titled A More Active Australia, and Sports Excellence Backing Australian Athletes, in the Australian Sports Commission statement. Assistance for the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will provide $90m to assist in the staging of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne in 2006. The funds will be used for capital works to upgrade Games venues that are to be used. The Government has also provided an in-principle agreement to provide a variety of security and non-security services for the Games. This measure will continue the Government’s tradition of support for Australian sport. Continued support for National Recreation Safety Organisations Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will provide an additional $1.6m over 4 years to national recreation safety organisations. These organisations are Royal Life Saving Society of Australia, Surf Life Saving Australia, Austswim and the Australian National Ski Patrol Association. This increase of funding will mean that Government funding to improve water safety awareness and prevent people, especially children, from drowning will be more than $7.8m over the 4 years. This underlines the Government’s commitment to assist in the development and implementation of strategies and programs to reduce the number of drownings in Australia. Indigenous Communities/Mining Industry Regional Partnerships Program Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will provide funding of $1.2m over 4 years to promote partnerships between the mining industry and Aboriginal Communities. The program aims to deliver long term benefits to stakeholders, exploration and mining companies and Aboriginal Communities through an integrated package of targeted measures. Key elements of the program include a publication of case studies setting out the benefits of a partnership approach; regional on-the-ground workshops to promote awareness of best practice; general promotion of a partnership approach; and promotion of indigenous employment through Department of Industry, Science and Resources programs. The Department of Industry, Science and Resources will absorb the cost of this program. Corporatisation of the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Authority and Environmental Flows into the Snowy and Murray Rivers Expense ($m)
Explanation The Commonwealth will provide $75m over 10 years as part of the program to corporatise the Snowy Mountain Hydro-electric Authority. This funding will be matched by $150m each from Victoria and NSW and will be used to fund the establishment of a joint government agency which will invest in water savings projects as part of a government commitment to increase environmental water flows into the Snowy and Murray Rivers. The agency will oversight nominated water savings works in specified tributaries of, and distribution systems from, the Murray River in a way which ensures that there is no adverse impact on: the water entitlements of irrigators in NSW and Victoria; environmental flows in the Murray Darling System; and the water quality and security of South Australia. Australian Industry Participation - Supplier Access to Major Projects Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will provide funding of $0.4m in 2001-02 for this program to facilitate access by competitive Australian suppliers at the pre-tender stage to major private and public sector projects. This measure recognises that managers of major projects have difficulties in identifying Australian firms, especially small and medium sized enterprises that are capable of fulfilling project requirements. The Department of Industry, Science and Resources will absorb the cost of this program. Business Advice on the Regulatory Environment Expense ($m)
Explanation The Government will develop an integrated suite of business advice tools and education options to assist innovative firms to understand and operate without constraint by the regulatory environment. Further Information This assistance will be provided at no additional cost to the Budget. Funding will come from within existing resources provided to the Department of Industry, Science and Resources. This measure forms part of Innovation Action Plan for Australia - Backing Australia’s Ability. Yüklə 3,53 Mb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
