I believe there are two different forms of Government funding. The first is from the defence budget which deals with critical projects for defence, and repatriating the procurement (of which boron fits that brief). Smaller scale funding 50-80 million, shorter timeframe. Then there is the larger decarbonisation pool of money (in the billions) which is a much longer process (applications approx. 12 months), but for much larger sums of money (hundreds of millions), is my understanding.
One would suspect we are pushing pretty hard for the defence funding, whilst at the same time starting the longer (decarbonisation) process.
I'm no expert but from the reading I've done and following the webinars etc. this is my best guess as to how the Government funding may play out.
