Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 626 asked in the Legislative Council on 12 June 2019 by Hon Colin Holt

Parliament: 40 Session: 1

COLLIE MOTORPLEX

626. Hon COLIN HOLT to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Sport and Recreation:

I refer to the Collie Motorplex.

(1) What funding has been allocated to the Collie Motorplex by the McGowan government? Please provide a yearly breakdown of the amount, source and purpose of the funds.

(2) Is the minister aware that a national racing event will be held in the motorplex in September and that urgent funding is required to complete the upgrades in time for the event?

(3) If these funds are not provided, is the minister concerned that the event could be at risk of being lost?

(4) Given the motorplex is a large economic driver for Collie and the south west, will the McGowan government commit to providing funds for the continual improvement of the complex; and, if not, why not?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.

We had a conversation behind the Chair about this. The honourable member is aware that the minister is not available to provide an answer today, but I give an undertaking that we will provide an answer as soon as possible.
