KidSport—Access
456. Hon Tjorn Sibma to
the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister
for Sport and Recreation:
I refer to the
following quote from the minister's media statement of 24 June:
For the first time, eligible families
with kids participating in Girl Guides and Scouts will be able to access the
KidSport program. This is an important way of expanding the scheme to support
more families and ensure more kids can participate in community sport and
recreation.
(1) Was there previously a time in the last decade
when girl guides and scouts could access the KidSport program?
(2) When was this time?
(3) When were girl guides and scouts made
ineligible for KidSport?
(4) Under which government was access to the KidSport
program denied to children who wished to participate in girl guides and scouts?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question and provide the following
answer on behalf of the Minister for Sport and Recreation.
(1)–(4) We are proud to be enabling scouts
and guides to access KidSport. This is the first time under a Cook Labor
government that this is happening.

The President: Order!
