I refer to the Government’s decision to name the new motorsport precinct at Burswood “Perth Park.”, and I ask : (a) Will the Minister confirm the Government will apply the same logic to Optus Stadium and revert it to “Perth Stadium,” thereby removing Optus’ naming rights?

Perth Park will be Western Australia's premier entertainment and sporting precinct.
Sitting alongside the Belmont Park Racecourse and Crown Perth, Perth Park will bring Optus Stadium and the State Tennis Centre together with exciting new facilities to create something truly iconic for our State long into the future.
Not only will the project continue the reinvigoration of the Burswood Peninsula, but it will also help diversify our economy, creating new local jobs in tourism, sport, and the arts.
