Legislative Assembly Hansard 1959 Queensland Parliamentary Debates [Hansard] Legislative Assembly THURSDAY, 12 NOVEMBER 1959 Electronic reproduction of original hardcopy 1288 City of Rockhampton, &c., Bill [ASSEMBLY] Questions THURSDAY, 12 NOVEMBER, 1959 Mr. SPEAKER (Hon. A. R. Fletcher, Cunningham) took the chair at 11 a.m. QUESTIONS SUPPLY OF DOG-SPIKES TO RAILWAY DEPARTMENT Mr. MANN (Brisbane) asked the Minister for Transport- "(1) In connection with the contract for the supply of dog-spikes by McPhersons Ltd. at £59,818 15s. Od. to the Railway Department, what was the price tendered by the Queensland manufacturer?" "(2) What was the difference in price between McPhersons Ltd. and the Queensland tenderer?" Hon. G. W. W. CHALK (Lockyer) replied- "(1) £63,625." "(2) £3,806 Ss." "After deduction of the value of the steel content involved from each tender­ such steel not being of Queensland origin­ the Queensland manufacturers' price on which they were entitled to preference for Queensland manufacture was approxi­ mately 12 per cent. in excess of that of the lowest tenderer." SUPPLY OF OFFAL MEATS, TOWNSVILLE Mr. AIKENS (Mundingburra) asked the Minister for Agriculture and Stock- "As the supply of brains, tails, kidneys, tongues and other offal meats from the Townsville abattoir is insufficient to meet public demand, is it permissible for people to arrange for these and meat cuts in short supply to be purchased from meatworks? If not, why not?" Hon. 0. 0. MADSEN (Warwick) replied- "Tt is known that the Townsville District Abattoir Board is at times unable to meet the full demand for the supply of brains, tails, kidneys, tongues and other offal meats in the Townsville district abattoir area. Under these circumstances, permission is given for fixed quantities of such offal meats to be supplied to butchers from other sources as is done at times in other abattoir areas. The district abattoir is able to kill sufficient animals to supply all carcass and meat cuts and as is the case in other district abattoir areas, these classes of meat must be obtained from the district abat­ toir."

  • 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.

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?" "(5) How do these charges compare with those imposed by other abattoirs?" Questions [10 NOVEMBER] Questions 1345 "(6) Has there been any recent increase Cannon Hill have had no influence on in the slaughtering charges levied at the recent rises in meat prices.

  • Lower Fitzroy River Infrastructure Project Draft Environmental Impact
    Appendix R Social impact assessment report Gladstone Area Water Board and SunWater Lower Fitzroy River Infrastructure Project Social Impact Assessment Report September 2014 Executive summary Project background The Lower Fitzroy River Infrastructure Project (Project) is the construction and operation of a raised Eden Bann Weir and construction and operation of Rookwood Weir on the Fitzroy River, Central Queensland to facilitate capture and storage of all high priority unallocated water (nominally 76,000 ML/a) in the Fitzroy system. The development of weir infrastructure (and associated works), the resultant storage of water (inundation of the river bed and banks) and the transfer of water between storages through ‘run of river’ methods on the Fitzroy River comprise the scope of the Project. Eden Bann Weir is an existing structure located at AMTD 141.2 km on the Fitzroy River, approximately 80 km upstream of Rockhampton. The current weir has a Full Supply Level (FSL) of 14.5 m (Stage 1). The Project proposes to raise the weir to a FSL of 18.2 m (Stage 2), with a subsequent addition of gates (Stage 3) which would raise the structure to FSL 20.2 m. The Rookwood Weir site is located at AMTD 265.3 km on the Fitzroy River, approximately 85 km south-west of Rockhampton. The Project proposes to construct a weir to a FSL 47 m (Stage 1). Addition of gates (Stage 2) would raise the structure to FSL 49.0 m. The order in which the proposed infrastructure would be developed is dependent on the demand and the consequent storage capacity and yield resulting from a particular build / stage.

  • Part 3. Strategic Framework 3.1
    LIVINGSTONE PLANNING SCHEME 2018 Part 3. Strategic framework 3.1. Preliminary (1) The strategic framework sets the policy direction for the planning scheme and forms the basis for ensuring appropriate development occurs within the planning scheme area for the life of the planning scheme. (2) Mapping for the strategic framework is included in Schedule 2. (3) For the purpose of describing the policy direction for the planning scheme, the strategic framework is structured in the following way: (a) the strategic intent, and statements of preferred dominant land uses in the form of describing the places that form part of the planning scheme area; (b) the following six (6) themes that collectively represent the policy intent of the planning scheme: (i) Settlement pattern; (ii) Natural environment and hazards; (iii) Community identity and diversity; (iv) Access and mobility; (v) Infrastructure and services; and (vi) Natural resources and economic development; (c) the strategic outcomes proposed for development in the planning scheme area for each theme; (d) the specific outcomes for each, or a number of, elements of each theme; and (e) the land use strategies for achieving these outcomes. (4) Although each theme has its own section, the strategic framework is read in its entirety as the policy intent for the planning scheme. Editor’s note: The planning scheme has adopted a twenty-five (25) year planning horizon. However, the planning scheme itself (as a statutory document) is likely to have an operational life of up to ten (10) years before it is substantively reviewed. 3.2. Strategic intent The Livingstone Shire Council planning scheme area is situated in the Central Queensland Region on the Tropic of Capricorn.

Richardson 3 SUBMISSION TO THE FEDERAL REDISTRIBUTION OF ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES IN QUEENSLAND BY BOB RICHARDSON COMMENTS ON SUGGESTIONS General:- • All of the ‘suggestions’ except mine left the existing 30 Divisions with the same names. • Most made only minor changes, especially in regional and rural areas. • While giving ‘lip service’ to the need to follow Local Government boundaries, as a means of ‘Community interest’ most did not address the problems of splitting cities, such as Mackay, Rockhampton, and the Fraser Coast. I believe that this, without having fit another Division in, is the opportunity for the Redistribution Committee to bring Divisions like Dawson back to where they traditionally belong. 4 DIVISION OF LEICHHARDT In my ‘suggestions’ I discussed the disadvantage to the residents on Cape York Peninsula (referred to hereupon throughout this submission as ‘the Cape’) and the Torres Strait Islands (referred to throughout this submission as ‘the Islands’), however I did not mention a matter closer to Cairns, the population growth of the Cairns area, from Palm Cave to Gordonvale.
