Wednesday, 27 August 1997]5549 [Wednesday, 27 August 1997]5549 QUESTIONS ON NOTICE Answers to questions are as supplied by the relevant Minister's office. TOURISM - EVENTSCORP Funding - Terms and Conditions 632. Mr BROWN to the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Tourism: (1) In the period from January 1993 to March 1997 which organisations and what events received funding from EventsCorp and for each event, how much was provided and to whom? (2) What are the terms and conditions that apply to those receiving funds? (3) Are there standard terms and conditions applicable to all groups receiving funding? (4) What procedures are there to - (a) assess the financial and other credentials of those organisations receiving funds; (b) monitor the compliance of the recipients with the terms and conditions of funding? (5) Are guarantees sought from the directors and committee members of any organisations receiving funds to indemnify EventsCorp if it suffers any loss due to failure of the organisation to fulfil any of the terms and conditions of funding? Mr BRADSHAW replied: The Minister for Tourism has provided the following response: (1) EventsCorp was established some ten years ago and in that time has attracted some seventy one events to Western Australia. EventsCorp WA is well recognised Australia wide as one of the most successful event tourism organisations, with a track record of attracting valuable events to our State. Between 1993 and now, EventsCorp has secured, managed or supported 41 events. These events have brought an estimated $87 million in economic impact and many millions of dollars more in publicity exposure for the state in our tourism markets. Event organisers have confirmed the significant role EventsCorp plays in the securing and retaining of events in Western Australia. Paul McNamee Event Director Hopman Cup "It is certainly unlikely the Hopman Cup would have got off the ground in Western Australia without EventsCorp's initial support, and its ongoing support is a key factor in the tournament being able to remain in WA The Hopman Cup helps put WA on the world map through its extensive international television coverage, which highlights WA’s natural assets through tourism postcards. It is difficult for WA to attract genuine world class events, especially when other states are making increasingly larger investments in event tourism with its demonstrated flow-on effects to the local economy. On a personal note, I have always found EventsCorp to be a professional and responsible organisation to deal with". Tim Wilson National Executive Director Triathlon Australia "There is no doubt that if Western Australia did not have EventsCorp, it would not have the 1997 Triathlon World Championship. Western Australia won the right to host the Championships ahead of three Australian states and five countries because EventsCorp was able to prepare a very professional bid in a very short time. I have seen many bid presentations and very few were as professional as EventsCorp’s bid". 5550 [ASSEMBLY] Peter Bready President Confederation of Australian Motor Sport "If the Western Australian Government did not have an agency like EventsCorp, it is doubtful that Rally Australia would have remained in Western Australia as other states have woken up to the value of major events. Every year, the international media and competitors go to Western Australia confident that Rally Australia will be well run, well promoted and well supported by the local population. Rally Australia's success was due to its structure which combines management expertise and support from EventsCorp and motor sport expertise from a core group of volunteer officials. Rally Australia’s success on the world stage includes winning the international Rally Press Association’s "Best World Rally" award ahead of eight other rounds of the 1996 FIA World Rally Championship. This is the second international award that Rally Australia has won in two years which confirms the Rally's status as an event of which everyone in Western Australia can be proud". The delay in responding to this question is that the Crown Solicitor's Office advised EventsCorp it should seek in writing approval to disclose the information requested. This has been extremely time consuming. The following table reflects information on those events in which EventsCorp has been able to confirm approval from the event management for the release of information pertaining to the event, at this point in time. It should be noted that as requested, the funding amount relates to the period 1 January 1993 to 31 March, 1997. If an event has additional funding outside this period, its total funding has been listed as a footnote.

In general, the terms and conditions are designed to ensure the event delivers the anticipated benefits related to the initial proposal, including economic impact, national and international media exposure and private sector investment and where relevant, an ongoing event. (3) EventsCorp has developed, over the past three years, a standard set of terms and conditions in consultation with the Crown Solicitor’s Office which forms the basis of a standard contract. These terms include: * Maximisation of participants and supporters; * Jeopardy of the event clause; * Establishment of an event account through which all transactions must be passed; * The expenses are to be in accordance with the event budget * Presentation of quarterly management reports incorporating the financial position of the event, and key matters associated with: 1.

    2020 INTERNATIONAL SPORTS FEDERATIONS SOCIAL MEDIA RANKING #IFRANKING SOCIAL MEDIA FROM SIDE STAGE TO MAIN STAGE Burson Cohn & Wolfe Sports (BCW Sports) is pleased to publish the 2020 International Sports Federations Social Media Ranking. Published for the fourth year in a row, this ranking aims to capture the social media footprint of international sports federations and provide insightful takeaways of how different content leads to different outcomes. 2020 has been a year unlike any other for sports federations. Despite setback after setback, with cancellations and postponements of sporting events around the world, the year has been revolutionary for the whole sports industry. Since matches and tournaments were not taking place, sports fans had to look for other channels of engagement. They found what they were looking for on social media. This year’s ranking, as per previous years, includes international sports federations (IFs) from both the Winter and Summer Olympic programmes. In addition, for the first time, non-Olympic IFs have also been included. This should serve to increase the comparative and informative value of the IF Ranking. On behalf of BCW Sports, I truly hope that you enjoy our findings. Share your thoughts by engaging with us at @bcwsport and use our hashtag #IFranking.

    FIA JUNIOR WRC CHAMPIONSHIP 2020 ANNOUNCEMENT 2 FOREWORD M-SPORT MANAGING DIRECTOR, MALCOLM WILSON OBE The FIA Junior WRC Championship is the most cost-effective way for any budding young driver to get onto the world stage. It’s a completely level playing field as every driver uses identical machinery, so it is very easy to measure yourself and FOREWORD your performance against other competitors. And it’s also a great way for young drivers to gain vital experience of WRC events. So many of the best rally drivers in the world have graduated from the Junior WRC, and many also have strong connections with M-Sport. We take great pride in working with young drivers and getting them where they need to be, and I think that’s a key reason why M-Sport Poland and Junior WRC are such a good match. CHAMPIONSHIP | FIA JUNIOR WRC We’ve worked hard with Ford to ensure that there is a clear ‘Ladder of Opportunity’ through which the most promising drvers can progress and having the all-new Ford Fiesta R2 as the car of choice for this year’s Junior WRC only strengthens that commitment. We are very proud of this car and also very proud of this championship; and I’m looking forward to seeing what the class of 2020 has to offer. 3 THE CHAMPIONSHIP The FIA Junior WRC Championship is the sport’s ultra-com- petitive entry-level series, giving rally stars of the future an opportunity to climb WRC’s ladder of opportunity. The Junior WRC is organised and promoted by M-Sport Poland and works with its key partners Pirelli and Wolf Lubricants to CHAMPIONSHIP CHAMPIONSHIP deliver the highest qualty equipment for affordable and accessible competition.
