COUNTRY LOCAL GOVERNMENT FUND — SKATE PARK,
AUSTRALIND
670. Hon SALLY TALBOT to the minister representing the
Minister for Regional Development:
(1) Is the
minister aware of media reports that funding for the new skate park in
Australind is conditional on the state government continuing with the country
local government fund and allowing the Shire of Harvey to use a portion of its
annual grant from the fund?
(2) Will the
minister give the local community an assurance that the state government will
provide its share of the funding required for the skate park?
(3) Given that
community fundraising and applications for other grants are contingent on the
state government's contribution being confirmed, when will the approval
be confirmed?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the
question.
(1)–(3)
The Shire of Harvey has received its funding from the country local government
fund for projects that it is eligible for. I am advised that there has been no
request for funding of a skate park in Australind.
