Federal Opposition Leader Bill Shorten notes that women’s sports events account for just seven per cent of Australian TV networks’ overall sports coverage. Shorten aims to address this imbalance by committing an extra $A21m in funding for the ABC to provide greater coverage of women’s sports. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has indicated that the Government will provide an additional $A60m in funding for the Sporting Schools program.
