Abc learning to close 55 centres is ‘a bad idea’, says Abbott Labor and crossbench MPs will call for an end to new funding
More than half of the centres were closed for security reasons, and some were also shut down by federal agencies, the parliamentary budget officer says.
A $45m allocation has been earmarked for improving security and “enhancing community engagement to keep our community safe”, the budget officer, Simon Crean, told parliament on Wednesday.
The Coalition says the funding should go to areas that are “critical” for national security, but Labor and crossbench더킹카지노 MPs are asking the government to reverse its plan to cut hundreds of other public sector jobs and reduce the size of the workforce.
The budget includes $42.9m for the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, which controls the interest rates paid on Commonwealth loan-backed securities, and $8.8m to upgrade information technology at Commonwealth branches.
The additional spending includes $3m to establish a “digital literacy fund”, which will provide a range of resources to the general public as they get to grips with digital technology.
The additional spending in the budget includes $31m for the Federal Education Minister, Christopher Pyne, who in the last financial year received a further $31m.
The budget has also proposed a change in the Commonwealth’s health funding, which has been criticised by independent backbenchers, including Nationals minister Barnaby Joyce.
The federal government announced plans last month to increase the contribution of 1.3% in Medicare fee-for-service payments and reduce Medicare charges to Medicare by $25 for each extra month patients spend on their Medicare cards.
The $8.2m allocation announced Wednesday includes $1.5m for two-year health care investment trusts, including a new $1.4m in grants to new health providers to help them set up a hospital network.
It also includes $1.9m for $500,000 for local service provider grants to promote access to mental health services and support for primary care nurses.
“We know from the experience of many communities around this country that there’s s바카라o much more they can achieve by building relationships with a range of government agencies, particularly the health sector,” the budget 우리카지노officer said.
Labor shadow health minister Professor Fiona Nash has called for the federal government to fund the existing mental health funding through a private donation, rather than cut it, adding: “It has to be an incentive to investment that actually addresses the needs.
