Buchan Caves swimming pool
Mr T BULL (Gippsland East) (13:22): Locals in Buchan were very concerned last week and a little bit bemused when the Premier turned up and gave $2 million basically to his own department. What they were hoping for was something for the business community and something for the wider community, not the $2 million the Premier gave Parks Victoria to do up the Buchan Caves. The other issue that is impacting on the community at Buchan is that the pool is not open. They wanted some news about the pool being re-opened; it is an important tourist attraction up there. I am hoping that with the $2 million that the Premier has given to himself to do up the Buchan Caves he can find some money to get that pool re-opened at Buchan, which is one project the community wants.
