Operation of scheme
9 Operation of scheme
The scheme opens on the day stated on the authority’s website as the day on or after which an application for assistance under the scheme may be made.
The scheme closes on the earlier of the following days—
the day on which the authority’s assistance funds for the scheme become insufficient to pay further assistance under the scheme;
31 March 2024 (the closing day).
However, the Minister may, by notice published on the authority’s website (an extension notice), extend the closing day, once only, to a stated day that is not later than 24 December 2024.
The Minister may publish an extension notice only if the Minister is satisfied applicants need more time in which to apply for assistance under the scheme.
The Minister must table a copy of the extension notice in the Legislative Assembly within 14 days after the day the extension notice is published.
