Council feedback on Disaster Ready Fund

The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) is seeking feedback from local governments for the next round of Australia’s Disaster Ready Fund (DRF).

The Disaster Ready Fund survey has recently been extended by the Government to enable councils to have their say.

The Government has invested $200 million a year over five years in disaster resilience and risk reduction initiatives through the Disaster Ready Fund | National Emergency Management Agency (nema.gov.au).

NEMA is currently seeking community input and feedback on round one and to inform future funding rounds.

Funding for round two will be available in 2024-25.
