    Palaszczuk Government makes history with nation leading subbies payment reforms - The Queensland Cabinet and Ministerial Directory 13/7/20, 1:20 pm I Media release Minister for Housing and Public Works and Minister for Sport Queensland Government The Honourable Mick de Brenni Thursday, October 26, 2017 Palaszczuk Government makes history with nation leading subbies payment reforms Today marks a new era for the state’s building and construction industry, with the Palaszczuk Government’s historic subcontractors payment legislation passed through the Parliament. Minister for Housing and Public Works Mick de Brenni said the Building Industry Fairness (Security of Payment) Bill 2017 would bring security and confidence to the Queensland’s $45 billion construction industry. “For far too long, subcontractors have had to shoulder most of the financial risk on building projects, but that changes today,” Mr de Brenni said. “These reforms help ensure that subcontractors in the building and construction industry are paid in full and on time, every time. With these reforms, Queensland will have the strongest protections for subcontractors anywhere in Australia.” Mr de Brenni paid tribute to the extraordinary contribution of the Speaker Peter Wellington. “It’s almost unheard of for the Speaker to vacate the chair in order to speak on a bill, and entirely unprecedented for an independent Speaker give such passionate support for a policy of the Premier and her government,” Mr de Brenni said. “We are where we are today because of the dedication the Speaker Wellignton has shown in standing up for his constituents after the 2014 Walton’s collapse, which sent so many subcontractors to the wall.

  • Hon. Cameron Dick
    Speech by Hon. Cameron Dick MEMBER FOR GREENSLOPES Hansard Wednesday, 22 April 2009 MAIDEN SPEECH Hon. CR DICK (Greenslopes—ALP) (Attorney-General and Minister for Industrial Relations) (7.30 pm): I start tonight by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land where this parliament stands who have served and nurtured this land for centuries. I pay tribute to them and their great role in our history. It is in this reflection of history that I begin tonight. In December 1862, three short years after the birth of our great state, whose 150th anniversary we celebrate this year, the sailing ship Conway arrived in the small Queensland settlement then known as Moreton Bay. History little records the fate of the Conway, its passengers and its crew, but one thing is known about that day in December 1862: that is the day my family arrived in Queensland and began its Queensland journey. Almost 150 years later, that journey has taken me to this place, the Queensland parliament. I stand tonight as a representative of the people in our state’s legislature, not only as a fifth-generation Queenslander but also with great humility and honour as a son of the state seat of Greenslopes, the electorate I now serve as a member of parliament. My first thanks this evening go to those people who make up the community of Greenslopes. It is a wonderful and diverse community and I look forward to serving them to the best of my ability. This electorate is very dear to my heart. It was at Holland Park, in the Greenslopes electorate, that I was raised as a boy.

  • 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.

As discussed with Tanya the following dot points sum up the issue: • The Premier as Transport Minister signed Queensland up, not only to participate in, but also to be the host state for the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). • The NHVR is set up to deliver red tape reduction, business growth, jobs for industry and lowered freight costs and better road safety for the community. • At the upcoming Transport and Infrastructure Council meeting the NHVR is asking jurisdictions for some cash to build a regulatory platform. • This regulatory platform is essential to the regulator delivering business and safetyReleased benefits to Queenslanders under and nationally. RTI Act - TMR • Queensland, which in essence was being asked to contribute about $15 million over three years has said no via cabinet. • If the NHVR, employing 200 odd people in Queensland is rendered ineffective because its host state can't stump up spare change, it will be embarrassing for the Premier as Minister who signed onto the reform.

  • Maiden Speech
    Speech By Meaghan Scanlon MEMBER FOR GAVEN Record of Proceedings, 20 March 2018 MAIDEN SPEECH Ms SCANLON (Gaven—ALP) (3.31 pm): Thank you, Mr Speaker, and can I add my congratulations on your election to the important role of Speaker of this House. I rise for the first time today honoured to represent the people and community that I grew up in and love, and conscious of the incredible responsibility that has been bestowed upon me. I know that my presence here is rather unlikely so I thank the constituents of Gaven for their trust in me. My first acknowledgement is to the traditional owners of the land on which we gather here today, the Jagera and Turrbal peoples. I also acknowledge the traditional owners of the land that I represent, the Kombumerria and Wangerriburra people, and pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging. One of my earliest memories of becoming interested in politics was in primary school where I learnt about our country’s cruel treatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. I distinctly remember watching the Rabbit-Proof Fence in my year 7 social studies class and feeling a deep sense of shame. That shame heightened when I found out that our Prime Minister at the time, John Howard, was refusing to simply say sorry for the well-known and well-documented atrocities carried out against our First Australians. To sit in this House for the first time in the week of the 10th anniversary of Kevin Rudd’s National Apology to the Stolen Generations was a timely reminder of how much more we need to achieve along the path to reconciliation.
