The Government will provide additional funding of $0.1 million in 2004-05 and $0.2 million in 2005-06 to the Department of the House of Representatives and the Department of the Senate for the Citizenship Visits Programme.
This additional allocation will help meet recent increases in demand for the programme, which subsidises final-year primary and secondary school students to visit Parliament House and participate in a range of educational programmes.
