COMMUNITY-BASED THEATRE ORGANISATIONS

AnswerView source ↗
I am glad there is interest from the opposition on this issue. One of the great pleasures of having responsibility for the culture and arts portfolio is gaining a greater understanding of the wonderful diversity and quantity of activities and endeavour within the arts community right throughout Western Australia. That particularly includes, of course, the performing arts. I am sure all members would agree that such organisations, ranging from the major companies in ballet, music, opera and drama, for example, right through to the much smaller community-based organisations from one end of Western Australia to another, do play a very important role in a cultural sense, and also socially and economically. I am pleased to say that decisions have been made about the allocation of $420 000 of funding from the independent theatre initiative out of the arts capital fund from the cultural arts budget. The $420 000 has been distributed to a range of community-based theatre groups, including one in the member for Darling Range’s electorate, the Roleystone Theatre Inc., which will receive $29 910. The largest single grant of $48 000 has been awarded to the Narrogin Repertory Club. That will be used to increase seating capacity, to install air conditioning and to otherwise upgrade the theatre. Several members interjected. Mr J.H.D. DAY : I think opposition members might be concerned that there has been some sort of selective process involved, or some sort of political approach to making the decisions about these grants. Several members interjected. Mr J.H.D. DAY : I assure everyone that the decisions have been made on a peer-assessed basis by members of the independent community-run theatre sector in Western Australia. They have certainly not been determined on a political basis. Several members interjected. Mr J.H.D. DAY : I will not go through every organisation because there is not time, but I will mention the locations of where the grants are being made. They are to Kwinana, Darlington, Northam, Gosnells, Roleystone—as I mentioned—Pinjarra, Kalamunda, Kalgoorlie, Fremantle, Floreat, Melville, Hamilton Hill, Nedlands, Esperance, Narrogin, Bunbury, Guildford and Innaloo; so it is a broad spread across the state. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr J.H.D. DAY : I am happy to table the further details of how much is being allocated to particular groups. These grants are important in enriching the community by supporting these organisations, which play a very important role in the community on a cultural, social and economic basis. I table the relevant information. [See paper 450.]

They have certainly not been determined on a political basis. Several members interjected. Mr J.H.D. DAY : I will not go through every organisation because there is not time, but I will mention the locations of where the grants are being made. They are to Kwinana, Darlington, Northam, Gosnells, Roleystone—as I mentioned—Pinjarra, Kalamunda, Kalgoorlie, Fremantle, Floreat, Melville, Hamilton Hill, Nedlands, Esperance, Narrogin, Bunbury, Guildford and Innaloo; so it is a broad spread across the state. Several members interjected. The SPEAKER : Members! Mr J.H.D. DAY : I am happy to table the further details of how much is being allocated to particular groups. These grants are important in enriching the community by supporting these organisations, which play a very important role in the community on a cultural, social and economic basis. I table the relevant information. [See paper 450.]
