QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the Minster’s decision to cut the Owners Incentive Payment for non-stakes winners, and ask:
(a) can the Minister advise if there is a new plan for Country Racing and Pacing Incentive Schemes in Western Australia; and
(b) if so, when will this be introduced so that regional racing clubs will not have to continue to suffer from cost-cutting measures to their industry?
