In response to the impact of recent natural disasters in the state, the Queensland Home and Community Care (HACC) program has reviewed capital funding processes for 2010-11.
Organisations are being offered the opportunity to review surplus requests made through the 2009-10 HACC Annual Financial Return (AFR) process and re-prioritise according to the new guidelines outlined in the Re-prioritisation of surplus Home and Community Care fact sheet. These guidelines reflect a significant change to the existing processes which allowed requests for only a limited range of purposes. Requests can be made to the Home and Community Care branch using the Request to re-prioritise surplus funds form.
Meals on Wheels
A separate process will be run for Meals on Wheels organisations to reflect different contracting arrangements.
Meals on Wheels organisations that have unspent funds from 2009-10 (identified through the reconciliation process) will receive a letter from the Home and Community Care branch outlining how to request retention of these unspent funds.
