Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This is a ministerial determination that adds two specific scholarships to the official 'approved scholarships' list under the Social Security Act. When a scholarship is 'approved', recipients can generally receive their Centrelink payments (such as Youth Allowance or Austudy) without the scholarship money being counted as income that reduces their benefits.

The two scholarships approved are:

Cambridge Commonwealth Trust Fees Scholarship – for course fees at Cambridge University
Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists Scholarship (Lichtenstein) – specifically excluding scholarships that cover living expenses

This ensures students receiving these particular awards aren't financially penalized when claiming social security support.
