BOURKE (Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services, Minister for Autism, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:44):</by>  I always love the diversity in our chamber. As I said before, we are looking at options. We have seen before that there are opportunities available. I am not sure about you, but I remember in the 2000 Olympics there was soccer played here. There are opportunities to spread the opportunities across the country when we do host the Olympics, so there are opportunities to be looking at here, not only with regard to the Brisbane Olympics but also with other sporting events like I have mentioned.</text>
