(c - e) As per the written advice I provided to the Chief Executive Officer of the Subiaco Football Club on May 26, $425,000 is allocated to the West Australian Football Commission (WAFC) for the development of football in WA, including regional areas. This funding supports the delivery of inclusive and multicultural programs. Subiaco Football Club should work with the WAFC to address their funding requirement. There may be other funding available through the Department of Sport and Recreation that Subiaco Football Club are eligible for and they are encouraged to contact the department to discuss their options.
