Program objective
The objective of the Program is to deliver funding to Local Control Authorities for weeds to enable them to undertake activities that:
- prevent the establishment of new State and regional priority weeds;

The Program is designed to implement strategies of the NSW Invasive Species Plan 2023-2028 that provides the best return of investment. This will be achieved through activities that align to the NSW State Weed Strategic Plans, and prevention, eradication, and containment priorities described in Regional Strategic Weed Management Plans and/or support the NSW Weeds Capacity Building and Engagement Priorities 2020-2025.
