  • Regional Priorities: Expanding the Australian Defence Force Presence in TNQ
    Regional Priorities: Expanding the Australian Defence Force presence in TNQ Date: 06 March 2012 Advance Cairns Position Advance Cairns is seeking government commitment and action to increase the presence of the Australian Defence Force in Far North Queensland (FNQ). We believe that there is a strong strategic 'business case' for Defence to continue to invest in this region both in the short and long-term, particularly with regard to: Expanding HMAS Cairns to maximise the number of proposed Offshore Combatant Vessels (OCV's) and replacement Landing Craft Heavy (LCH) vessels based in this region; Increasing 51st Battalion presence and capabilities; Developing the region as a Centre of Excellence in specialist defence activities; and Becoming a future base for Landing Helicopter Deck (LHD) vessels. The strategic benefits of this region are outlined in detailed submissions that were provided to the ADF Posture review team in September 2011 and January 2012, which are included as appendices to this paper. The interim ADF Posture Review Progress report, which was publically released on 30 January 2012, noted that, “Defence to plan to expand the capacity of bases at Darwin and Cairns to accommodate the OCV and replacement LCH vessels. The scale and cost of any expansion at Darwin and Cairns would depend on the final size of the OCV”. This region is seeking to maximise the number of these vessels based out of HMAS Cairns. We also understand that there is a strong likelihood the new Landing Helicopter Deck (LHD) vessels will be initially based in Sydney when these vessels enter service in 2014-15.
