To support your #righttoknow I'm building a project so the public can search & analyse who receives govt grants ausgov.info/index.php?Topi…
Commonwealth grants are interesting- think about grants to farmers or grants to the GBR Foundation. Think about grants to religious charities who do not have to report finances. Think about job networks. This data is not searchable pre 2018 anywhere else.
Some organisations get both government grants and tenders. I've made Tenders searchable at ausgov.info/tenders/index.… #righttoknow
Are there even 100 people in Australia who care enough about #righttoknow enough to pay for it? #auspol patreon.com/littlebirdnetw…
