In relation to Eventscorp’s sponsorship of the Margaret River Surf, Music and Arts Festival, and the 2009 sponsorship agreement, I ask:
(a) on what grounds did Tourism Western Australia verify the claim under “deliverables” that the event is 100 per cent owned and run by Western Australian-based organisations, ensuring all wages and spending will be retained in the State;
(b) what audit has the department undertaken to ensure that all wages and spending were retained within Western Australia; and
(c) will the Minister table any and all audit documents; and
(i) if not, why not?
