Member for Gregory Lachlan Millar has expressed concern at the Palaszczuk Government’s response to a question he raised regarding the separation payment to be made to the Emerald Local Management Area Board when it assumes responsibility for the management of the Emerald Irrigation Area channels.

Low business confidence and high unemployment in central and western Queensland must be urgently addressed, according to the Member for Gregory, Lachlan Millar.

Mr Millar told Parliament yesterday that while January saw record coal exports and a substantial rise in the exports of beef and crops, CQ was struggling.

Queensland Health Minister Cameron Dick has given the Member for Gregory assurances that he will investigate the concerns raised by the Alpha Fire and Emergency Services captain John Mahon that the new fire station will be unfit for use.

Member for Gregory Lachlan Millar this week voted to protect Queensland’s existing vegetation management framework and maintain the hard-won property and development opportunities of landholders.

Mr Millar said despite the Palaszczuk Labor Government’s opposition to the motion, common sense had prevailed.
