Barkly Square, Kyneton, upgrade

Ms THOMAS: In more Kyneton news I was thrilled to announce that this government has committed $500 000 to fix the chronic drainage issues at Barkly Square, home of the Kyneton Rangers soccer club. Now, this story is well known to many in this house. The Barkly Square upgrade was rated 87 out of 100 by Sport Australia, but it did not make it onto Bridget McKenzie’s colour-coded spreadsheets. The sports rort saw my constituents miss out on the much-needed funding. I am delighted that this government gets on with the job and delivers funding fairly to our sporting groups.
