Lara electorate
Ella GEORGE (Lara) (14:46): (569) My question is for the Minister for Community Sport. Can the minister inform me how many Get Active Kids vouchers have been approved in the Lara electorate over the seven rounds of this program? In an effort to alleviate the financial burden associated with participating in sport, this program was started back in November 2020. The program aims to provide eligible children with vouchers of up to $200, which can be used to cover expenses like equipment, uniforms and registrations. When I am out and about in the community I hear from many families who tell me that they would not have been able to afford the costs of their children playing sports were it not for this program. So again, my question to the minister is: how many vouchers have been approved in the electorate of Lara through the Allan Labor government’s Get Active Kids voucher program?
