LNP Shadow Minister for Sport John-Paul Langbroek said Labor had failed women’s sport again and again.
"Annastacia Palaszczuk and her arrogant Sport’s Minister Mick de Brenni kept Queensland sporting clubs in the dark for months about the future of funding for building female facilities," Mr Langbroek said.
"It is only on the eve of the budget and after months of uncertainty that clubs are now being drip feed information about if they will receive funding to build these much needed facilities.
"The Government’s own factsheet for the Female Facilities Program state that applications for the program closed in December 2017 and by February the successful projects should be announced.
"In fact, by their own measure, the projects should have commenced in April 2018, but Labor are four months late to even telling clubs about if they were successful in applying for the program.
"While our clubs were kept in the dark about the funding for four months, women’s sport across the State was suffering.
"We shouldn't be surprised by this latest blunder because Mick de Brenni has failed to back women's sport time and time again."
"Women’s sport should be a priority for Labor, not an after-thought."
