Growing Suburbs Fund

Ms WARD (Eltham) (2318)

My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Local Government in the other place, and the action I seek is a briefing on the status of Growing Suburbs Fund projects in the Shire of Nillumbik.

Minister, the member for Yan Yean and I had the delight of recently attending the sod turn for the new netball pavilion in Diamond Creek, important infrastructure needed by this community that was funded by the Growing Suburbs Fund in 2017.

Nillumbik has been extremely lucky to have received over $22 million in growing suburbs funding towards much-needed community infrastructure—the most recent funding announcement in Nillumbik is for additional tennis courts, for which I thank the minister very much.

Minister, can you please provide me with a briefing regarding the status of Growing Suburbs Fund projects in the Shire of Nillumbik?
