About
Department of State Development awarded a contract to COWELL SEAFOOD PTY LTD for the Algal Bloom Fisheries and Aquaculture Assistance Grant to provide up to $225,000 to eligible fisheries and aquaculture licence holders who had been unable to catch or harvest their usual volume, had to stop operations due to extended harvest closures, or had their licence fees waived.
The grants were permitted to be used to meet fixed costs and overheads, including utilities, rent, and finance and interest payments.
Successful grant recipients were required to enter into a grant agreement with the Minister for Small and Family Business, administered by DSD, to receive the approved grant.
The Chief Executive, Department of State Development approved an exemption from disclosure/redaction of insurance details and licence numbers in grant agreements under Section 22.4 and 22.5 of Premier and Cabinet Circular 027 on the grounds of public interest and legal risk.
The award represented a targeted financial relief measure for fisheries and aquaculture licence holders affected by algal blooms; the stated exemption from disclosure highlighted legal and privacy sensitivities around insurance details and licence numbers in grant agreements.
