THE Victorian Liberals recently secured unanimous crossbench support in the Parliament to establish a new Select Committee Inquiry into the cancellation of the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
“With the Committee now established, I write to invite and encourage community members who would like to make a submission to the inquiry to do so,” said Wendy Lovell MP.
The inquiry will investigate a range of matters related to Victoria’s cancellation of the 2026 Commonwealth Games including:
failures in governance, probity and procurement processes in the Victorian Government’s bid, contract, and termination of the 2026 Commonwealth Games
the impacts of the contract termination of the Commonwealth Games on Victoria’s reputation, business community, tourism, and major events
the timeline, progress and budget of the Victorian Government’s regional infrastructure and housing build
the impact on community, social, amateur, and professional sport in Victoria.
The Select Committee is interested in receiving submissions from a wide range of organisations, clubs, groups, businesses, and individuals who have been involved with preparations for the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Regional Victoria.
Submissions must be made to Submissions (parliament.vic.gov.au) by 23 October 2023.
