Commonwealth legislation
This instrument authorises the Commonwealth to pay specified sums to named States on 7 November 2018. The payments, listed in Table 1 and described further in Schedule 1, are grants to help States deliver particular projects or outputs, to facilitate specified reforms, or to reward nationally significant reforms (s3, Table 1, Schedule 1). It matters because it moves federal money to State programs and reforms on a defined date and ties each payment to the purposes set out in the schedule.
