CHIEF MINISTER FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

Question No 417

Youth Organisations Research and Development Program

MRS CARNELL - Asked the Chief Minister upon notice on 17 November 1992:

(1) How many conferences were funded through the Youth Organisations Research and Development Grant during 1991-92.

(2) What were the themes of these conferences.

(3) Which organisations hosted these conferences.

(4) How many people attended each conference.

MS FOLLETT- The answer to the members question is as follows:

In 1991-92 funding was made available through the Youth Organisations Research and Development (YORAD) Program to the ACT Branch of the Australian Association of Adolescent Health (ACT AAAH) to host an ACT AAAH Conference.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the Conference did not go ahead and it was agreed that the funds be redirected to cover cancellation costs and to contribute towards sending four (4) young people to the 1992 National AAAH Conference in Melbourne.

No other conferences were funded through the YORAD Program during 1991-92.

Funding was, however, made available to individuals and youth organisations to attend local and/or national conferences and training workshops. Those groups who received such funding were:

. ACT Youth Accommodation Group (YAG) - contribution to the cost of sending twelve (12) people to the 1991 National Youth Housing Conference in Melbourne.

. Narrabundah College

- contribution to the cost of sending

twelve (12) students to the 1991

International Drama Festival in Vienna.
