Challenges • Demand exceeds available resources • Applications based funding model • Lack of impact measurement • Expectation of recurrent and ‘permanent’ funding potentially crowding out new entrants • High rate of declines (due to non-compliance) • Fraudulent applications / fund use • Provincial allocation / spread inequities • Turnaround times
Concluding Remarks • Appreciate the opportunity to account and engage with the Committee as the elected representatives of the communities we are appointed to serve • The implementation of amendments to the Lotteries Act will address most of the fundamental structural impediments for the more effective & efficient distribution of funds from the NLDTF • In the meantime the NLB and Distributing Agencies continuously endeavor to improve the operational efficiencies related to the NLDTF activities.
