Dear ,
I recently had a meeting with Sam Spina and Ross
Henry from QRIDA to discuss the Recovery Grants of up to $25,000.
The disaster assistance has been activated for Tropical Cyclone
Niran and Associated Low Pressure System, 25 February - 3 March
2021. The Hinchinbrook Regional Council area has been defined as
a disaster area and is eligible for assistance.
Producers need to show they are an eligible primary
producer, within the declared disaster area and demonstrate they
have suffered direct impact from the disaster. The grants are
available for affected producers to hire or purchase equipment
and materials, clean up, remove debris, replace fencing,
repairing or restoring fields and other costs associated with the
recovery process. Producers should take photographs of the direct
damage to accompany their application.
The maximum grant amount is $25,000 and is available
through two applications:
An initial amount of up to $5,000 is available to
support an initial claim. Evidence of the direct damage such as
photographs, quotations, tax invoices and official receipts is
required.
A subsequent amount of up to $20,000 is available to
support subsequent claims for which full evidence of payment is
required.
