Southern Metropolitan Region
Katherine COPSEY (Southern Metropolitan) (12:51): (1845) My constituency question is to the Minister for Community Sport. Parents in my electorate are very concerned to hear of the imminent closure of the gym that St Kilda PCYC runs. This facility runs programs for people across the age spectrum, from children to elderly people in our community. Parents and the school community and wider community are concerned that they are going to lose access to programs and lose access to this vital resource in an area where up to 60 per cent of the community lives in apartments and suffers a profound lack of outdoor space. Minister, what are your plans to ensure the local community continues to have access to vital community sports in this neighbourhood?
