Recreation, Sport and Racing Department

362 The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) ().28 August 2024). Can the Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing advise:

1. How much will the move for all department staff to the new SASI headquarter cost the department?

2. Did the government provide a grant to Forestville Hockey Club to assist them in constructing their new facility at Unley High School?

3. Can the minister confirm if any money is allocated in 2024-25 for the department to work with state sporting organisations on business cases to assist with seeking future government funding?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries): I am advised by the Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing:

1. $200,000 was allocated from the agency's existing budget for the relocation, however it is anticipated significantly less will be required. The majority of the expenditure against this allocation relates to preparing the Kidman Park site for ownership transfer, a decision made by the former Liberal government.

2. Forestville Hockey Club received the following funding from the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing (ORSR) for the Unley High School project:

2018 Sport Surfaces Program (round 1)—$995,000 to investigate, design and construct a new multi-purpose synthetic pitch at Unley High School.

2022 election commitment—$2 million to construct a synthetic pitch, club room, change rooms and lighting at Unley High School.

3. At this stage no funding has been allocated for this purpose. However, ORSR has developed a number of resources including a business case template that state sporting organisations can use to scope out projects in preparation for government and other partner funding consideration. Organisations are encouraged to contact the ORSR for more information.
