Very poor decision from the Abbott Government and a blow to syndicates had already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars preparing submissions for the next funding round!!!

Quote:
As part of the 2014-15 Federal Budget, the Government has decided to reduce funding for the CRC Programme by $80 million over the forward estimates. As a result of this decision, the 17th selection round did not proceed for new applicants.

Applications for the current selection process closed on 3 July 2014.

This decision does not impact on existing CRC contracts.
