Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements
The joint Australian, state and territory governments' Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements (DRFA) provide a range of financial assistance to the natural disaster-declared areas in each state or territory.
For the flooding that affected parts of the Northern Territory in November 2021, the available assistance measures include:
- Demolition or rebuilding
- Removal of debris
- Personal financial counselling
- Counter disaster operations
- Reconstruction of essential public assets.
For information on available recovery assistance, visit the Northern Territory Government's website at securent.nt.gov.au.

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade will replace passports that have been lost or damaged in declared natural disasters free of charge, visit the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade website.
