Ms THEOPHANOUS (Northcote): My constituency question is to the Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events, and I ask: what is the latest information on the eight new netball courts set to be built at Yarra Bend Park in Fairfield?

Eight brand-new, competition-grade courts are planned for the park as part of the Andrews government’s inner-city netball program, a program championed by my Labor predecessor, Fiona Richardson. The Andrews government has committed $8 million to the project, which will see not only the courts built but also a new pavilion with female-friendly facilities that can be used for local netball, cricket, fishing and soccer clubs. Alphington Netball Club is due to make the site their home, and I know they are keen to hear an update on how the project is tracking.
