LOTTERYWEST GRANTS —
VICTORY LIFE CENTRE
1241. Hon PETER COLLIER to the Leader of the House
representing the Premier:
I refer to the minister's
response to question without notice 1158, asked on Thursday, 22 October 2020,
and to the comments of Lotterywest CEO Susan Hunt on ABC radio on 8 October
2020, in which she stated, in part —
� it's around our commitment
to diversity and inclusion, so that stands. It's in our grants
framework. Our grants framework has been more explicit around these issues �
about the last three years we've had a very clear Lotterywest grants
framework, with five pillars.
(1) Over the past
three years, have any organisations, other than Margaret Court Community
Outreach, had their Lotterywest grant applications rejected due to the fact
that they did not meet the criteria within the grants framework?
(2) If yes, which organisation or
organisations, and why was the application rejected?
