    His Month to Have the Hon Mark Furner, Minister for Agriculture, Industry Development and Fisheries (DAF) Visit with Council on Tuesday 27/8/2019

    Bulloo Buzz 4 September 2019 MAYORS MESSAGE ……………..………….………………………. We were fortunate this month to have the Hon Mark Furner, Minister for Agriculture, Industry Development and Fisheries (DAF) visit with Council on Tuesday 27/8/2019. He had been to Charleville and Quilpie and came out here to meet with Council as well as Mr Anthony Glasson to discuss Mr Glasson’s work with Merino Sheep and current trends in the sheep industry. The Minister was impressed with the work that was happening in Thargo and he was very interested in the Warri Gate road project and the development of the Low Care Independent Living Centre. I informed him that we couldn’t ever remember an Agricultural Minister coming to Bulloo and the last State Minister was Minister Crisafulli who opened the VIC when the National Party was in Government. At Council’s last Ordinary and Special meetings, we approved the purchase of three utilities, a Prado, 1 Landcruiser, 2 Caterpillar Multi Tyred Rollers and 1 Caterpillar 12m Grader. All up this was a total spend of $1.1 million. This is part of Council’s commitment to ensure that we have a modern fleet of vehicles and plant that reduces our Maintenance and gives us a better resale value when we come to trade them in. It also gives local people the opportunity to buy vehicles at a reduced cost that they know have been serviced regularly. We have more plant to purchase but these are our major items for this year. The CEO attended a SWRED meeting in Cunnamulla last week.

The Lake Eyre ZAC was established by the QFMA to provide: a forum for discussion on regional fisheries and fisheries habitat issues; a vital two-way information flow between fisheries mangers and the community. ZAC membership is diverse, representing fisher groups and associations, conservation groups, tourism, fish stocking groups, local government, other government agencies, and other bodies with an interest in fisheries management and fish habitat issues. © Department of Primary Industries, Queensland, and Queensland Fisheries Management Authority 2000 Disclaimer This document has been prepared by the authors on behalf of the Queensland Fisheries Lake Eyre Zonal Advisory Committee.
