729. Mr V.A. CATANIA to the Minister for Sport and
Recreation:
I
have a supplementary question. Can the minister assure this house and the
cricket community in Western Australia that the fifth Ashes test will be
held in Perth on 14 January and the forthcoming Big Bash League will be
delivered and not under threat of being poached by Tasmania?

AnswerView source ↗

That
really was a dead ball! I repeat my answer: we are confident and we will never
put the safety of Western Australians at risk.
