BASEBALL FACILITIES

In reply to the Hon. T.J. STEPHENS (12 November 2008).

The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning, Minister for Small Business): The Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing has provided the following information:

Baseball SA, with the assistance of government, has developed a feasibility study and business case to address their future major facility requirements.

The government has provided a significant level of financial assistance to the sport including a grant provided to the Glenelg Baseball Club. The grant was received through the Community Recreation and Sport Facilities Program and was for the re-development of Anderson Reserve.

While the government, through the Office for Recreation and Sport, will continue to promote the provision of infrastructure for sport at all levels, it also has a responsibility to consider the allocation of funds in the context of all the priorities that exist in the community.
