Budget to offer drought relief to state’s rural areas: Government Updated The Federal Government has agreed to lift some funding for drought relief to rural Australia to help ensure water systems function in rural areas. Rural Water Minister Ken Wyatt says the money is a first step. “It means that we are taking the necessary steps to respond more swiftly to local conditions,” he said. He says the Government will continue to lift money for drought relief through the National Drought Reduction Fund for 2013-14, and next year. collier ambre rond femme collierpascher13043 The Coalition has previously suggested water funding will be lifted by 20 to 30 per cent next year. bracelet cuir 22 723braceletpascher5616 But Labor’s water spokesman Paul Fletcher says the Coalition is also reducing water projects that may affect rural communities. collier homme inoxydable 720collierpascher7548 The government has also said it will not raise water fees for rural households because it does not believe rates in Australia are too high. xq livraison gratuite 2015 bj nouveau papillon coquille bleu collier cadeaux pour les filles Mr Fletcher says the Government is not willing to lift water fees to help make up for cuts to 용인출장안마 용인출장마사지the national Water Assistance Scheme. “We’re not going to be raising the fees because we’ve already cut wate광주출장샵r assistance, so why would we continue to do that?” he said. ‘We will be lifting the fees for the next 12 months’ Mr Wyatt says lifting water and waste wat피망 포커er fees for 2013-14 will free up $5.5 billion over the financial year that ends at April 30, 2014.
