Adjournment

Ingrid STITT (Western Metropolitan – Minister for Mental Health, Minister for Ageing, Minister for Multicultural Affairs) (18:31): I move:

That the house do now adjourn.

Tourism and major events

Jacinta ERMACORA (Western Victoria) (18:31): (1750) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events, and the action I seek is for him to update the house on the Allan Labor government’s support for Victoria’s major events calendar in order to grow our visitor economy. As a brand new grandmother of two, I am intrigued by the ‘May the 4th’ Lego Star Wars event – I know this is my future very soon – and the huge number of people that are visiting for that. This is another example of the blockbuster events strategy, and I am looking forward to a report from the minister.
