IMPLEMENTING THE STRATEGIC PLANThe strategic plan does not have a timeframe. Its rate of implementation will be influenced primarily by two factors, funding and human resources. These two factors are linked to some extent. The issue of funding is most relevant to the development of Equestrian Park. As discussed in Chapter 4, the strategy includes measures for increasing ACTEA income to assist in funding the development and management of this facility. One source of this funding is through clubs staging more and larger events. This has obvious implications for the workload of volunteer club members. As discussed in Section 4.1, there are several other factors which are likely to influence indirectly the implementation of the strategy for improving competition facilities. These include:
In addition to assisting indirectly in facilities development, addressing these factors effectively could also open the way for increased financial support from both the ACT Government and sponsors. The strategic plan places increased emphasis on developing close working relationships with ACT Government authorities and owners or managers of various commercial facilities. The development of these relationships is likely to place increased demands on some ACTEA volunteers. While some types of external funding may not necessarily support facilities development directly, it may help to reduce the workload of these volunteers and enable their efforts to be focused more effectively on facilities issues. It is the intention of the ACTEA to complement this strategic plan for equestrian facilities with other elements of a strategy for addressing the development of equestrian sport in the ACT on a comprehensive basis [confirm]. This comprehensive strategy is expected to assist the implementation of the facilities component. |
