"Local communities throughout regional Western Australia will share in $40million of State Government funding this financial year through the new Regional Grants Scheme, an initiative of Royalties for Regions ... The scheme was targeted at providing financial assistance to regionally based organisations such as volunteer and business groups, educational institutions, philanthropic foundations and community organisations. The grants would be administered through the State’s nine Regional Development Commissions."
