Legislative Assembly Hansard 1960
Queensland Parliamentary Debates [Hansard] Legislative Assembly THURSDAY, 10 NOVEMBER 1960 Electronic reproduction of original hardcopy 1344 Auctioneers, Real Estate, &c., Bill [ASSEMBLY] Questions THURSDAY, 10 NOVEMBER, 1960 Mr. SPEAKER (Hon. 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. -

Heavy Vehicle Management Strategy for the Atherton Tablelands Area in Far North Queensland
MEDIA STATEMENT 12 March 2019 Study to support Far North heavy vehicle management The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) is conducting a $480,000 study to develop a Heavy Vehicle Management Strategy for the Atherton Tablelands area in Far North Queensland. TMR District Director (Far North Queensland) Ross Hodgman said TMR were aware of the importance of the transport industry and the growing demand on the road network for transporting mining, agricultural and horticultural products. “With a focus on investment in northern Australia and strong population growth in Far North Queensland, we want to improve the current heavy vehicle management for the Tablelands to meet the growing demands of the transport industry,” Mr Hodgman said. “Extensive community consultation was carried out during the options analysis phase and several potential preferred upgrades and new facilities were identified. “Road is the only viable mode for transportation of freight in the study area and critical to the viability of industry and population centres. “Ensuring efficiency, safety and security of road-based freight supply chains is the backbone of the region.” Further consultation will be undertaken focusing on the following preferred upgrades: • a proposed Heavy Vehicle Rest Area (HVRA) on the Mulligan Highway, north of Mareeba • a proposed HRVA on the Kennedy Highway, west of Speewah • a proposed Heavy Vehicle Stopping Place at the top of the Rex Range (Mossman – Mt Molloy Road). For the study, the Tablelands freight network mainly encompasses the Tablelands Regional Council and the eastern most part of the Shire of Mareeba areas. The study is expected to be completed by late 2019. -

Deforestation and Sugar Cane Growing in Eastern Australia, 1860–1995 PETER GRIGGS School of Earth and Environmental Sciences James Cook University – Cairns Campus PO Box 6811 Cairns Queensland, Australia 4870 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Deforestation associated with the cultivation of sugar cane in the coastal lands of Eastern Australia commenced in the 1860s. Beyond the initial large-scale clearing of the native vegetation to create arable land, the growing of sugar cane placed other demands upon the native forests. The vegetation was cleared to provide timber for buildings, railway sleepers, to supply the firewood for the sugar mill boilers and in some instances to supply the timber used in at least half a dozen Australian sugar mills that were adapted to manufacture lumber in the non-crushing season. Newspapers descriptions, archival records and scientific reports are used to reconstruct the methods adopted to clear the forests and the speed and extent of the loss of forests in the sugar cane growing lands of Eastern Australia. -
