Frank Stewart was the first Federal Government Minister of Recreation. As a member of the then Whitlam Government, he demonstrated an excellent understanding of the importance of community recreation as a lifestyle experience. The values and principles of community recreation that he introduced have been adopted and supported by both State and Local Government leading to its existence today. |
