MEDIA RELEASE – NATSILS Funding Secured

Natsils Logo

The Federal Attorney-General’s Department yesterday announced it will reverse its decision and restored funding to NATSILS. As a member organisation we welcome the responsible step by the Government to restore funding to our national peak body. Given the country faces a national crisis with the rate of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander‬ people going to jail, it is crucial that NATSILS is in place and can operate with certainty in providing strategic advice to all levels of government.

NATSILS is a vital organisation in the legal assistance sector and brings together over forty years of expertise in providing quality frontline legal services to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
