  • Ap2 Final 16.2.17
    PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation.

  • 24 November 2020 Hon Cameron Dick MP Treasurer and Minister for Investment Queensland Government PO Box 15009 City East QLD
    24 November 2020 Hon Cameron Dick MP Treasurer and Minister for Investment Queensland Government PO Box 15009 City East QLD 4001 BY POST/EMAIL – [email protected] Dear Treasurer, Re: Urgent recommendation to extend time period for the HomeBuilder grant in Queensland As you are aware, the Australian Government’s HomeBuilder grant shows clear signs of being a very successful stimulus measure in Queensland. Across large segments of the residential housing industry, in both metropolitan and regional areas, industry is running at peak capacity, jobs have been saved and a generation of Queensland families have taken the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure private homeownership and all the benefits that will come with that in the decades to come. Critically, due to the average value of Queensland properties falling within the scheme’s “sweet spot”, the program has also drawn new investment to Queensland. Clearly, the scheme has been good for Queensland and we strongly recommend taking urgent action to ensure all those who are hoping to take up the grant are given the maximum opportunity to do so. A key opportunity to achieve the above is by amendment to the scheme’s eligibility criteria as administered by the Office of State Revenue. Specifically, we recommend that you urgently commit to extending the commencement period to six months from the date of contract for all HomeBuilder applications. As you are no doubt aware, the current mechanism of a discretionary three month extension is not working in practice because of the lack of certainty it provides at the front end of the process when significant decisions to proceed or not are being made.
