Owner and renowned singer, songwriter and producer Andrea Kirwin couldn’t resist setting up shop in the quaint Queen Street location. “I love Nambour. I’m always out there promoting Nambour,” she said. “I think it has such potential to be like the Melbourne of Queensland. It’s got all this culture and art scene vibe. “I got into music through jamming at cafes in Canberra at uni.

  • 22Nd March 2019
    This booklet has been prepared to commemorate the historic 200th General Meeting of the Mary River Catchment Coordinating Committee on Friday 22nd of March 2019 at Garapine; the location of the inaugural meeting in November 1993. It adds to a previous booklet prepared for the 100th meeting which was held at the Gympie Civic Centre on Wednesday 16th February 2005. For almost 25 years, the MRCCC has forged productive partnerships with thousands of stakeholders throughout the Mary River catchment and beyond; government at all three levels, industry, farmers, large and small rural and urban landholders, landcare and environment groups, recreational and commercial fishing interests, forestry, irrigators, Waterwatch volunteers, researchers, school students, and particularly the long-running working partnership with the Gympie District Beef Liaison Group. These partnerships have triggered a phenomenal groundswell of interest and activities in natural resource management across the Mary River catchment. The wider community is beginning to understand many of the causes of environmental degradation. The farming community is embracing sustainable production as a means of increasing productivity whilst protecting natural assets. Governments at all levels now recognise that community engagement is critical to environmental repair and ecological protection. Triple bottom line objectives are now commonplace in strategic planning documents. So what were the factors that led to the need for an “across the board” shift in philosophy? In the 1990’s, the Mary River was described as one of the most degraded catchments in Queensland. European settlement resulted in extensive clearing of the riverbanks. In recent times, massive land use change due to subdivision, population pressure and other factors together with increasing demand for water resources led to deteriorating catchment condition.

  • 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.

  • Andrew Powell
    Speech By Andrew Powell MEMBER FOR GLASS HOUSE Record of Proceedings, 11 March 2021 ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Mr POWELL (Glass House—LNP) (12.08 pm): I acknowledge the Governor of Queensland and I am privileged to again rise to reply to his address, the fifth time I have had the opportunity to do so. At the outset I acknowledge the people of Glass House. To those of you who voted for me and for the LNP, I say thank you. To those of you who did not, I also say thank you. It is because of you I remain humble. Let me be honest: while I accept the outcome of the 2020 election, I am bitterly disappointed. I am disappointed that Deb Frecklington, the member for Nanango, is not the Premier of this great state. The member for Nanango has to be the hardest working, most personable, friendly and genuine leader I have had the privilege of working alongside. I commend her for all of the effort she put in not only during the election campaign but across the three years of her leadership. Queenslanders will only know in the future what they have missed out on with the member for Nanango not becoming the Premier. I am equally disappointed that the member for Nanango’s vision for Queensland will not come to fruition—a vision that, as the then shadow minister for infrastructure, manufacturing, planning and a range of other things, would have seen an economy booming through investment in infrastructure, roads, dams, the New Bradfield Scheme and, more importantly, in frontline services to ensure all Queenslanders get their health needs met, their education needs provided for and their child protection and youth justice needs delivered.
