Gungahlin—swimming pool
Ms Berry (in reply to a supplementary question by Mr Coe on Wednesday, 10 February 2021):
Since June 2020 the ACT Government has engaged experts to consider a range of issues in relation to the future works required. Experts were also engaged to assist the ACT Government in commercial negotiations and considered the structural elements of the 50-metre pool and its surrounds, as well as the tiles themselves to understand the best way to repair the pool to minimise the risk of this happening again.
Gungahlin—multipurpose centre
Mr Barr (in reply to a supplementary question by Mr Braddock on Wednesday, 10 February 2021):
The Government is currently undertaking a Community and Recreational Facilities Assessment for the Gungahlin District, which includes investigations relating to the multipurpose centre. This will include conversations with key Gungahlin stakeholders over the next two months, including the Police Community Youth Club, Communities @ Work, Barnardos Australia and Belconnen Arts.
This assessment will be used as the basis to engage with the Gungahlin community to have their say on community facilities in the district, including the multipurpose centre proposed for the town centre.
Community engagement is planned to be a mix of online and face-to-face events and is anticipated to begin in mid-April 2021.
