These payments are part of 'National Partnership' agreements—deals between the federal and state governments where Canberra provides money to help states deliver specific projects, implement reforms, or reward them for achieving national policy goals. The money is distributed unevenly: Queensland gets the largest share ($686 million), followed by New South Wales ($533 million), while Tasmania and the ACT receive the smallest amounts (around $17 million each). The determination itself doesn't create new policy; it simply triggers the actual transfer of funds that were already agreed upon in separate National Partnership agreements."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019","history":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019/history","analysis":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/federal-financial-relations-national-partnership-payments-determination-no-150-28-june-2019/documents"}}
