Redfern 'will welcome' development centre

The Indigenous Land Corporation says Sydney's Redfern community will welcome the announcement of a new sports, education and community centre reports ABC news on Tuesday October 9th 2007.

The New South Wales Government has approved plans for the $30 million Indigenous Development Centre.

The centre will be run by the corporation and offer child care, literacy training for school students and a range of sporting facilities.

The corporation's general manager, David Galvin, says there has been widespread support for the centre.

"There's been full consultation with the community," he said.

"It's a very big project with the movement of the PCYC from the old site to here, the development of the sporting ovals [and] the education facility run by the Exodus foundation.
