    20 May 2004 Legislative Assembly 1291 THURSDAY, 20 MAY 2004 Legislative Assembly Mr SPEAKER (Hon. R.K. Hollis, Redcliffe) read prayers and took the chair at 9.30 a.m. PRIVILEGE Member for Darling Downs Hon. R.E. SCHWARTEN (Rockhampton—ALP) (Minister for Public Works, Housing and Racing) (9.31 a.m.): I rise on a matter of privilege. The shadow spokesperson for public works, housing and racing, Mr Hopper, has recently penned letters to a variety of regional newspapers. I table a copy of one of these from the Sunshine Coast Daily on Monday, 17 May. The honourable member states that I have decided that 'we cannot afford to keep the Beattie Labor government's election promises despite them having been made just a few months ago'. This is a deliberate falsehood. It has no semblance of truth whatsoever and represents an attempt by the inadequate shadow minister to make himself relevant. I have already indicated in this House and outside that all building promises made at the last election have been costed and will be delivered. That was the case at the election and it is the case now. Queenslanders deserve proper policy debate from the opposition, not this sort of puerile and grubby performance. PRIVILEGE Attorney-General Mr SPRINGBORG (Southern Downs—NPA) (Leader of the Opposition) (9.32 a.m.): Mr Speaker— Mr Hopper interjected. Mr SPEAKER: Order! I point out to the member for Darling Downs that his leader is on his feet. Mr SPRINGBORG: I rise on a matter of privilege. We are not prepared to sit back and let the Premier mislead the people of Queensland.

  • 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.

Jobs and management of the economy were dominant themes in the election campaign. New electoral boundaries and three tropical cyclones also framed the context for the election. • Under the banner of ‘Keep Queensland strong’, Labor primarily campaigned on creating 100 000 new jobs, maintaining its record spending on infrastructure and developing a football stadium on the Gold Coast. • The LNP campaigned on ‘Change for a better Queensland’ and proposed to apply a three per cent funding cut to public sector spending, maintain two children’s hospitals in Brisbane, and implement a $726.9 million infrastructure investment program. • Pre-election polling indicated a tight finish with the LNP ahead 51–49 on a two-party preferred basis. However, despite a 4.7 per cent (first preference) swing against Labor, the Government was returned with 51 of the 89 seats. Bligh became the first female to be elected Premier in Australia.

  • Queensland January to June 2005 PAUL D
    Political Chronicles 595 Queensland January to June 2005 PAUL D. WILLIAMS Griffith University The Economy — Mixed News The year began satisfactorily for the government when a mid-year review forecast a revised budget surplus of $1.1 billion, or $450 million higher than expected (Courier- Mail, 13 January 2005). Equally pleasing was a Queensland unemployment rate of 4.3 per cent, which allowed Queensland, for the first time in twenty-five years, to boast Australia's lowest level (Courier-Mail, 8 April 2005). But some regions grew faster than others, with the Darling Downs becoming Queensland's "powerhouse" with an unemployment rate of just 2.3 per cent (Courier-Mail, 1 February 2005). The state's inflation rate of 0.5 per cent for the June quarter — or 2.5 per cent annually — remained comparable with the national average (www.abs.gov.au/ausstats) . Such robust growth encouraged the Beattie Government to resist Commonwealth proposals to further reform industrial relations. In 2003-04, exports valued at $26.2 billion showed a real decline of 3 per cent, while imports rose 10 per cent. Coal and beef were among the hardest hit, despite generating overall revenue of $8 billion (Courier-Mail, 2 February 2005). Other crises included the closure of a Bundaberg sugar processing plant with the loss of 100 jobs, and Queensland Rail's loss of contract with its largest freight customer, Toll Holdings, a loss attributed to cost increases of up to 48 per cent (Courier-Mail, 11, 22 February 2005). SEQ Infrastructure and the Budget — Counterbalance to Crises The Beattie Government pre-empted its own budget with the announcement in late April of its long-awaited Southeast Queensland Regional Plan, a bold $55 billion capital works vision covering some 230 separate projects designed to accommodate the one million additional residents expected to settle in the state's southeast over the next 596 Political Chronicles twenty years.

  • The 2009 Queensland Election: the Beginning of the End?
    The 2009 Queensland Election: The Beginning of The End? Scott Prasser* Introduction There was a lot riding on the recent March 2009 Queensland state election for both sides of politics. For Labor, seeking its fifth consecutive term in office, Queensland has been home to one of its most successful state governments that has delivered much to federal Labor in personnel, experience and votes. For Labor’s new leader, Premier Anna Bligh who replaced the charismatic Peter Beattie as premier some 17 months earlier, the challenge was to not just win a fifth term, but to win well. Otherwise her tenure as premier would be limited and she would not have had the authority to reform her government or to take the tough decisions the Queensland needs. Also, Labor had been in power for 11 years and was beginning to be weighed down by scandals and mismanagement. A key issue at the 2009 election was whether Labor had run out of steam. For the Opposition and its reinstated leader Lawrence Springborg the stakes were higher. This was crunch time for the non-Labor cause in Queensland. After years of rivalry and intermittent half-hearted truces between the dominant National Party and the junior Liberals, the two parties finally amalgamated to form the new Liberal National Party (LNP) in August 2008 just seven months before the March 2009 election. It was the realisation of long time ambition in non-Labor circles (Costar and Prasser 1990). In Queensland discussions about amalgamation can be traced back to the 1960s and even during the mid-1970s formal meetings between the parties were held to discuss the issue (Trundle 1975).
