Constituency questions

Carrum electorate


Carrum electorate

Ms KILKENNY (Carrum) (14:46): (6211) My question is for the Minister for Community Sport. Can the minister please outline what the Andrews Labor government is doing to support and encourage women in my electorate to participate in community sport and to promote gender equity in leadership roles in local sporting clubs? I recently met with an incredible group of women from the Carrum Bowling Club, including bowls director Trish Church. We spoke about the important role that women play in our community and in our sporting clubs. I know the Carrum Bowling Club and many women and girls throughout my electorate are keen to hear from the minister about what support and programs are being delivered by the Andrews Labor government to increase women’s participation in sport, both on the field and on the committees.
