COLLIE MOTORPLEX — DRAG STRIP
I ask this question on behalf of Hon Ken Travers. I refer to the Liberal government’s election commitment to contribute $1.67 million to the development of a drag strip for the Collie Motorplex. (1) Will funding for this project be allocated from the community sporting and recreation facilities fund? (2) If so, has the Shire of Collie or any other body made an application under the CSRFF program; and, if yes, who? (3) As the CSRFF usually provides one-third of the capital costs of sporting facilities, can it be assumed that the government’s contribution represents one-third of the cost of the project? (4) If yes to (3), from where will the other two-thirds come? (5) If no to (3), what proportion of the total cost is represented by the government’s contribution? (6) Has the government held discussions with the Shire of Collie on this project, and has the council expressed its support for and financial commitment to the project? Hon NORMAN MOORE

I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. (1) The Minister for Sport and Recreation wrote to the manager of the Collie Motorplex in February 2009 confirming that the commitment will be made available primarily through the community sporting and recreation facilities fund, following an assessment by the Department of Sport and Recreation. (2) No. (3) The state’s contribution from CSRFF will equal one-third of the total eligible cost. (4) The CSRFF program provides for a maximum contribution of one-third of the total project cost from the state. Applicants fund the difference between the grant amount and the total cost. (5) Not applicable. (6) The minister has asked that the manager of the Collie Motorplex provide all necessary information to the Department of Sport and Recreation to enable it to make an assessment under the CSRFF program.
