D. E. Nicholson, Murrumba) took the chair at 11 a.m. QUESTIONS INCREASES IN BRISBANE MEAT PRICES Mr. LLOYD (Kedron) asked the Minister for Agriculture and Forestry- "(!) Has his attention been drawn to what is apparently a deliberately misleading opinion in the 'Telegraph' of Tuesday, November 8, which attempts to place the responsibility for the seven pence increase in meat prices in Brisbane on the control over the supply of meat in the metropolitan area by the Brisbane Abattoir?" "(2) Is it not a fact that the Cannon Hill Saleyards are merely a facility placed at the disposal of the buyers and sellers of cattle and the Queensland Meat Industry Board has nothing to do with the prices paid for the cattle sold at the Saleyards?" "(3) Would it not be true to state that the only affect that the operations of the Brisbane Abattoir have on the price of meat to the Brisbane housewife is the charge per head imposed on the slaugh­ tering of cattle owned by meat companies and individual buyers?" "(4) For the correct information of the Brisbane public, will he outline the charges made for the slaughtering of cattle at the Brisbane Abattoir?"

  • Prospects for Aquaculture and Amendments to the Fisheries Act Under the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld)
    Queensland Parliamentary Library Prospects for Aquaculture and amendments to the Fisheries Act under the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld) At least two recent developments have put the spotlight on aquaculture in Queensland. The first is the proposal for the development of a fish farm in Moreton Bay. Secondly, there has been an escalation in regulatory controls on recreational and commercial wild fish catches to guard against overexploitation. Aquaculture is a developing and promising Queensland industry that may have the potential to fill the gap between the public’s demand for fish and shellfish and the emerging shortage in wild fish supplies. However, there are a number of factors that impact upon the development of the aquaculture industry with environmental impacts of projects being a primary issue for producers. A number of regulatory controls on aquaculture developments are aimed at minimising environmental harm, including a development assessment process under the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (Qld). In recognition of the problems created for producers by duplication of planning and assessment processes, the Primary Industries and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 (Qld) has been introduced to amend the Fisheries Act 1994 (Qld) to require that certain fisheries development proposals are assessed under the Integrated Planning Act 1997.

  • Desired Environmental Outcomes
    CairnsPlan – March 2009 Chapter 2 Desired Environmental Outcomes 2.1 Overview The Desired Environmental Outcomes (DEOs) are the foundation of the CairnsPlan. The DEOs are the link between the purpose of the Integrated Planning Act of seeking to achieve ecological sustainability and the measures of the CairnsPlan. The DEOs: • Represent what is sought to be achieved through the CairnsPlan; • Relate to the environment that is defined broadly in the Integrated Planning Act to cover matters and conditions relating to the natural, built and human environments; and • Are expressions of the end states rather than means to ends. The DEOs relate to the whole of the City. Each DEO is sought to be achieved to the extent practicable having regard to each of the other DEOs. The DEOs are grouped under the topics reflecting the three strands of ecological sustainability identified by the Integrated Planning Act: • Ecological processes and natural systems; • Economic development; and • Cultural, economic, physical and social wellbeing of people and communities. However, there are close interrelationships between the DEOs. In a number of cases, elements of the subject of a DEO are mapped to illustrate the overarching planning strategies associated with the DEO. In these cases, the identified elements of the mapping are part of the DEO. Important issues associated with the DEOs are identified in the short discussion which follows each DEO. 2-1 CairnsPlan – March 2009 2-2 CairnsPlan – March 2009 2.2. Ecological Processes and Natural Systems 2.2.1 Ecological Processes and Biodiversity The biodiversity and nature conservation values of the marine, terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems within the City are conserved and enhanced.

The material in this publication is intended for government and institutional use only, and is not to be used in any court of law. 11 FOREWORD A detailed knowledge and understanding of the environment and the pressures its many facets may exert are fundamental to those who work to improve agriculture, or to conserve or develop the rural environment. A vast amount of information is accumulating concerning the physical resources and the farming and social systems as they exist in the state of Queensland. This information is coming from a number of sources and references and is scattered through numerous publications and unpublished reports. Shire Handbooks, the first of which was published in February 1969, are an attempt to collate under one cover relevant information and references which will be helpful to the extension officer, the research and survey officer or those who are interested in industry or regional planning or in reconstruction. A copy of each shire handbook is held for reference in each Division and in each Branch of the Department of Primary Industries in Brisbane. In addition Agriculture Branch holds at its Head Office and in each of its country centres, Shire Handbooks, Regional Technical Handbooks (notes on technical matters relevant to certain agricultural industries in the Shire) and monthly and annual reports which are a continuing record of the progress and problems in agriculture.
