Urban Rivers and Catchments Program - additional funding

The Government will provide additional funding of $118.5 million over 6 years from waterways, fund activities that restore the natural habitats of aquatic species and create recreational spaces for local communities. The additional funding will deliver the next phase of the program. This measure will be partially offset by reprofiling funding from the 2022-23 October Budget measure titled Next Phase of Natural Heritage Trust Funding. This measure builds on the 2022-23 October Budget measure titled Urban Rivers and Catchments Program.
