The coast is characterised by a diverse range of natural features including sandy beaches, rocky headlands, rainforests, woodlands and grasslands, extensive intertidal flats, and substantial areas of coastal wetlands (Environmental Protection Agency, 2004). Population growth and other development in the Mackay region is placing increased pressures on coastal resources, and limiting the resilience of the system to respond to fluctuations in the natural environment.

  • Federal Budget 2020-2021
    Federal Budget 2020-2021 The Federal Budget was handed down by Treasurer Josh Frydenberg on 6 October 2020, after it was postponed from May due to the coronavirus pandemic. Overview The deficit is projected to reach $213.7 billion in the 2020-21 financial year, or around 11 per cent of GDP. Deficits are forecast for the next decade. Net debt will increase to $703 billion, around 36 per cent of GDP, and is expected to peak at $966 billion, or 44 per cent of GDP, in 2024. Gross debt will peak at over $1.1 trillion in 2023-24. Treasury expects unemployment will reach 8 per cent before the end of the year, and the Budget forecasts the economy will grow by 4.25 per cent next calendar year. The economy contracted 7 per cent in the June quarter. Macroeconomic figures in the Budget are based on the assumption that a “population wide” vaccine will be “fully in place” by late 2021. Infrastructure • The Budget includes an extra $14 billion in new infrastructure funding, bringing the 10- year infrastructure pipeline to $110 billion. The funding will be provided on a ‘use it or lose it’ basis, where the state must start work quickly or the Federal Government will give it to another state • $2 billion in road safety upgrades, such as road widening, centre lines and barriers, which will be identified and delivered in three six-month tranches • $1 billion to support local councils to immediately upgrade local roads, footpaths and street lighting, as an extension of the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure program • $36.9 million over 4 years from
