A minimum of $19 million has been allocated to each constituency under the Government’s Constituency Mitigation Programme.
Previously referred to as the Christmas Work Programme, the funds are being made available early this year.
Minister with responsibility for Works, Robert Morgan, made the announcement during Tuesday’s sitting of the House of Representatives. He said the money will be spent for road repairs, de-bushing, drain cleaning, beautification and sanitation. A minimum of $10 million must be spent on road repairs, which includes patching. A minimum of 50 per cent of that amount must be spent on main roads.
