Tourism Western Australia has provided corporate hospitality at events sponsored by Eventscorp, a division of Tourism WA. It has been a long standing practice to extend invitations to attend events to some employees located in the offices of the Premier, Minister for Tourism, Minister for Sport and Recreation and the Minister for Culture and the Arts. However, it is not possible to provide a confirmed list of all employees who actually attended these events.
