ACTIVESMART PROGRAM
1103. Hon COLIN HOLT to the Leader of the House representing
the Minister for Sport and Recreation:
I refer to the Department of Local
Government, Sport and Cultural Industries' ActiveSmart program that
seeks to increase physical activity within the community.
(1) Can the minister provide an
update on where the ActiveSmart program is currently being delivered?
(2) Can the
minister advise whether the regional component of this program has changed
since March 2017?
(3) If yes to (2), what has changed
and in what regions?
(4) How much
funding is being provided for the 2018–19 financial year and over the
forward estimates?
(5) What is the status of
negotiations with Healthway to directly fund the program?
(6) Can the minister please table a report
of the outcomes of the ActiveSmart program?
