WA Labor commits $4 million to Halls Creek water park project

Roger Cook has pledged to contribute $4 million towards a new water park in Halls Creek if re-elected at this March’s State election.

The funding is part of a $186m election commitment that could benefit almost 50 community sporting facilities as part of WA Labor’s sport and recreation infrastructure package.

Premier Roger Cook said he wants every West Australian to have opportunities to participate in sport and recreation that they enjoy.

“Sporting clubs are the lifeblood of our local and regional communities, bringing people together and providing opportunities to stay active and engaged,” he said.

“Local clubs are the key to getting more people involved, which is why we are committing $186m to sport and recreation infrastructure projects right across the State.

“No other government in WA history has provided more support for community-level sporting infrastructure, and if re-elected, I look forward to working with local clubs and organisations to deliver the infrastructure their communities need.”
