BETTISON (Ramsay—Minister for Tourism, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (16:40):</by>  I recently had a meeting with Hockey South Australia and Hockey Australia about some potential opportunities. I would have to take it on notice to get the dates that we were talking about.</text>
        <text id="2024061943a34c8e6e2c4ff0a0000666">Previously, we have held quite significant international hockey events, playing India; I think it was in 2022 we had that here. Obviously, the location was a great location. Hockey, of course, is one of those growing sports, particularly because of the increasing levels of Indian migrants who have made South Australia their home. It is a very popular sport also with Malaysians. Those of us from country South Australia know that some country areas are really big in hockey.</text>
        <text id="2024061943a34c8e6e2c4ff0a0000667">We know it is a competitive landscape as well. Obviously, we have lots of different sports and we have talked many times after the FIFA Women's World Cup about our focus on women and girls in sport, not just in soccer but other areas as well. I will take it on notice and remind myself exactly of the dates and opportunities that were discussed.</text>
