Since this inquiry was advertised last November the committee has received over 280 submissions and has visited New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia for public hearings and inspections. At its public hearings, the committee has had before it state and local government, sporting organisations and providers of facilities. Today the committee will hear from similar groups in Western Australia about their views on the provision of sporting and recreational facilities. The witnesses today represent the government of Western Australia, the Western Australian Municipal Association, the Western Australian Sports Federation, the Calisthenics Association of Western Australia and the Carine Calisthenics Club. Committee hearings are recognised as proceedings of the parliament and warrant the same respect as proceedings of the House of Representatives. Evidence given before the committee is protected by parliamentary privilege. Witnesses will not be asked to take an oath or make an affirmation. However, they are reminded that false evidence given to a parliamentary committee may be regarded as a contempt of the parliament. The committee prefers that all evidence be given in public but, should witnesses at any stage wish to give evidence in private, they may ask to do so and the committee will consider such a request. I now call the representatives of the government of Western Australia. We have received submissions from you and authorised their publication. Do you propose any changes to the submissions? Mr Busch—No changes but I would like to add some comments to put matters into context. CHAIR—If there are no changes, I now invite you to make an opening comment. Mr Busch—Thank you for the opportunity to attend today. In Western Australia we have had a sustained history of more than 20 years of providing funding to community facilities. During that time the funding program has been known as the community sporting and recreation facilities fund. It has been approached on the basis that local community needs are identified and they drive the project development. The state government has provided funding of up to one-third of the cost of a project with the remaining funding coming from local government, community groups and other sources. What it does mean, of course, is that there is a multiplier effect in terms of the value of the projects that are generated as a result of those state government fundings. Tuesday, 22 July 1997 REPS ERA 577 Whilst there has always been an emphasis on the importance of planning and design for community facilities that has been given greater priority over the past four years and there has also been a particular emphasis on management of those facilities. That approach has, from our point of view, been based very much through publications, seminars, advisory services—I mention here that we have regional offices throughout the state so we provide those advisory services on a state wide basis—and then also the expectations and requirements that we have associated with our community sporting and recreation facilities funding applications. Graham Brimage will briefly discuss and make available some examples of publications that have been used as part of that campaign. An important part has been the degree of confidence that there will be future funding, so that we work on a rolling triennium funding. That means, for example, that funding will be made available for 1998-99 and for the two years thereafter. People are already aware that funding will be made available so they can plan and look ahead to the fact that there will be funding. Part of the

  • BEATTY PARK LEISURE CENTRE CONSERVATION PLAN Vincent
    BEATTY PARK LEISURE CENTRE CONSERVATION PLAN Vincent Street, North Perth September 2007 for the Town of Vincent Job No. 04183 With Robin Chinnery, Historian Cover Image: Original entrance to the Beatty Park Leisure Centre. Image courtesy Town of Vincent. Page i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Town of Vincent commissioned this Conservation Plan to assist them in conserving and developing the Beatty Park Leisure Centre to assure its future. Apart from being a very important part of the Town and State’s heritage, it is the Town of Vincent’s most significant trading enterprise. A separate conservation plan will be commissioned for the remainder of the park. The pool and spectator stands were developed in 1962 for the VII th British Empire and Commonwealth Games and substantial additions were made in 1993-4, changing the focus of the venue towards leisure rather than a venue for training elite athletes. The whole of the place is a busy working facility and there is a need to upgrade the 1962 facilities in particular. The Town is considering a major refurbishment and upgrade of the stands and pool area to meet with contemporary standards and expectations, and this prospect precipitated the need for a conservation plan. The 1962 structure is under- utilised with, for example, only a fraction of the stand seating being used, and there are some re-planning possibilities to consider to make the operation as a whole perform better, which may give rise to the consideration of alternative uses for some of the spaces under the 1962 stands. As the place is included in the Register of Heritage Places and registered as Beatty Park and Beatty Park Leisure Centre , the Conservation Plan is intended to assist the Town of Vincent and the Heritage Council of Western Australia to assess the impact of proposed change on cultural heritage values and the conservation of the place.

    THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STANDING COMMITTEE ON FINANCE AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION MARCH 1989 Australian Government Publishing Service Canberra © Commonwealth of Australia 1989 ISBN 0 644 09596 2 Primed in Australia by Better Printing Service, 1 Foster Street, Quean bey an N.S.VV. 2620 Sport today is at the crossroads. The funding under the foreword estimates does little more than allow Australia's elite athletes to attend residential camps and compete against each other. It implies a withdrawal from international competition. Australians could still be represented at such competitions but it is doubtful if they would be competitive. Such a proposal is not acceptable to those, indeed the majority of Australians, who encourage other Australians in their pursuit of excellence in sport. This report has been produced after several months of inquiry and hearings which have been held in all states. We met with Australian Olympic medalists and those who might have been medalists as well as those who will probably be medalists. I would pay tribute to the members of the sub-committee, Dr Charlesworth, Mr Gear, Mr McArthur and Mr Shipton, not only for the time they have given but the interest and commitment to the topic. This report is a challenge to those who support sport in Australia and a government commitment to it. If Australia is to continue to pursue excellence on the international sporting arena then there must be increased funding at the same time. There must also be accountability for the efficiency and effectiveness of those funds.
