Landcare

 Tom McINTOSH (Eastern Victoria) (18:50): (2058) I am delighted to be able to get up and talk about Landcare grants, and I think everyone here knows how much I love Landcare. It was great to be out on the lakes recently thanks to the catchment authority and catch up with the Romawi Landcare Group, and we had some great conversations about how we get kids more involved in Landcare groups. But anyway, off the back of that, my adjournment matter is for the Minister for Environment Steve Dimopoulos. This year $3.6 million in Landcare grants will help fund Landcare and environment volunteer groups to restore and protect vital habitats and waterways. The action I seek is for the minister to specify what grants have been made to groups in Eastern Victoria and for what purposes.
