4. Information about the broad range of grants outside the competitive grants programs, including grants delivered in response to COVID-19, is reported in CSD Annual Report available at:

Community Services Directorate Annual Report 2016-17

Community Services Directorate Annual Report 2017-18

Community Services Directorate Annual Report 2018-19

Community Services Directorate Annual Report 2019-20

Community Services Directorate Annual Report 2020-21

6. See responses above. Any conditions on grant recipients are included in the individualised Letter of Offer provided to successful applicants, which are not published. However, conditions that apply to grants generally are outlined in the Grant Guidelines for each program.
