Grant payments

Learn how we administer Caravan Parks Grants payments and progress reporting.

Status: Closed

Caravan Parks Grants were between $10,000 and $100,000. Total funding was $10 million.  

The program provided successful applicants with funding for capital expenditure projects, which must be matched on a dollar-for-dollar (or more) basis.

Applicants who own or operate multiple parks could apply for multiple grants at different sites up to a total value of $300,000.

Grant agreements

The grant agreement for successful applicants states:

  • the maximum grant amount we will pay
  • timing of milestones and grant payments
  • any financial contributions you must make
  • proportion of eligible expenditure covered by the grant (grant percentage).

Making payments

Payments are in line with an agreed schedule set out in the grant agreement. They are subject to satisfactory progress on the project.

Progress reports

You must submit reports in line with the grant agreement. We will remind you of your reporting obligations before a report is due.

Reports must include information on:

  • progress against agreed project milestones
  • project expenditure, including expenditure of grant funds
  • contributions of participants directly related to the project.

Your grant agreement will have details about what we require in the progress reports.

We:

  • will monitor the progress of your project
  • will assess reports and may conduct site visits where necessary
  • will confirm details of your reports where necessary
  • will re-examine claims or seek further information where necessary
  • may request an independent audit of claims and payments.
