1286. Hon PETER COLLIER to the Leader of the House representing the Premier:

I refer the Leader of the House to her response to question without notice 1158, asked on 22 October, and question without notice 1263, asked on 11 November.

(1) Did any of the organisations listed, as referred to in question 1263, have their grant application rejected because of ''their attitude to gay and lesbian issues and marriage equality'' or similar reasons, as with Margaret Court Community Outreach?

(2) If yes to (1), which organisation or organisations?

(3) Over the past three years, has any organisation had their grant application approved despite their attitude to ''gay and lesbian issues and on marriage equality'' being similar to Margaret Court Community Outreach?

(4) If yes to (3), which organisations?

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

I thank the Leader of the Opposition for some notice of the question.

(1) I refer the Leader of the Opposition to my answers to his question without notice 1263 on Wednesday, 11 November 2020, and question without notice 1158 asked on Thursday, 22 October 2020.

(2) Not applicable.

(3) Lotterywest takes a community development approach and there are often multiple reasons why a grant is supported.

(4) Not applicable.
