Senator Conroy: The Minister for Foreign Affairs has provided the following answer to the honourable senator's question: (1) No, although South Sudan could access assistance for natural resource management through the Mining for Development Initiative (2) See Answer to question 1. (3) As part of $11.36 million (over two years) provided to Australian non-government organisations for early recovery assistance in South Sudan, $2,566,851 has been provided to Oxfam to support improved food security and livelihood opportunities for vulnerable households in Lakes and Western Bahr El Ghazal States. A small component of Oxfam's funding under this activity will also support a pilot program of engagement with Australia's South Sudanese diaspora. Oxfam will support organisational capacity building (for example, financial management and governance) of targeted Australian South Sudanese community groups to better equip them to support rebuilding in South Sudan. As part of this, Oxfam may facilitate return visits of selected community members to South Sudan to engage in 'mentoring'-type training in program implementation. (4) Approximately $75,000 of Oxfam's funded activity will support Australian South Sudanese diaspora engagement. A small component of this funding may help support some members of Australia's South Sudanese community to return to South Sudan to contribute to building the new country.
