REGIONAL organisations are being urged to take part in the Gallop Government’s four-year $80 million Regional Investment Fund.
The fund aims to provide a boost to infrastructure, strengthen business investment and create new jobs through a wide range of economic, social, cultural and environmental projects.
The Government’s first fund, of $75 million, funded more than 670 projects including the Bunbury Dolphin Centre, the Busselton Jetty Underwater Observatory, Collie Motorplex and the Geraldton CBD and Foreshore Redevelopment.
Regional Development Minister Ljiljanna Ravlich said priority would be given to projects that created jobs and stimulated economic growth.
More information about the fund can be found online at http://rif.wa.gov.au, or at the Department of Local Government and Regional Development or from regional development commissions.
