Department of Local Government - Queensland Local Government Grant Commission

Methodology

The Queensland Local Government Grants Commission has completed a review of the methodology used for the allocation of the General Purpose Grant component of the Commonwealth's Financial Assistance Grant.

The completion of this review satisfies a recommendation of the Local Government Reform Commission from 2007. The Commission is confident this new methodology will provide a greater balance and equity of grant outcomes across the different types of councils in Queensland, now and into the future.

The Commission's Methodology review, General Purpose Grant, Financial Assistance Grant Information paper (PDF icon 140 KB) details the final decisions made regarding the methodology.
