Funding Contract Between the RSPCA South Australia and the SA Government for 2020-23

The RSPCA is a contractor paid by State and Territory Governments around Australia to enforce state animal cruelty laws. 

In previous decades in South Australia, details of the formal funding deed/contract agreed to by both parties have not been released to the public.

A copy of the funding deed in place for 2020-23 was obtained by this publication earlier this year through a Freedom of Information application made to the Government of South Australia’s Department of Environment and Water.

For anyone that might find the Deed useful, it is published in full below.

If you wish to verify the accuracy of the documents published here, you can also obtain a copy of the documents released in response to my Freedom of Information application by contacting the FOI Team at the SA Department of Environment and Water at: DEW.FOI@sa.gov.au

The application is listed on the Department of Environment and Water’s FOI Disclosure Log page, under agency reference code DEW21/017, dated 23 June 2021.
