Last week The Stirrer’s Doug Pollard revealed that the national peak body for our communities health and well-being, LGBTI Health Alliance was being defunded by the Federal Government.
In a letter dated 2 February 2016, the Alliance received notification from the Federal Department of Health that the appeal they had lodged following on the Governments original decision had failed – the only option left was to ask the Commonwealth Ombudsman to intervene. An unlikely action considering the mounting evidence of importance and failure to meet the basic requirements in the original grant application.
Doug Pollard joins Dean for a full update while the future of the organisation remains doubtful. Read more about Doug’s investigation here.
