The State Government will be bringing its Community Cabinet to Kingaroy on June 7.
Premier David Crisafulli said on Friday that Ministers and senior government officials would travel to the South Burnett to meet residents, business owners and community organisations.
It would provide an opportunity for the State Government to hear directly from the community about local priorities, as well as allow residents to learn more about government progress.
Premier Crisafulli said it was important that the Cabinet visit communities like Kingaroy “to listen, learn and work together”.
“We’re backing regional Queensland and delivering safety where you live, health services when you need them, a stronger economy and a plan for the future,” the Premier said.
“Community Cabinet gives residents the chance to speak directly with our team and share what matters to them.”
Member for Nanango, Attorney-General Deb Frecklington said she was proud to fight every day for the South Burnett and ensure local voices were heard at the highest levels of government.
“Community Cabinet is a fantastic opportunity to showcase everything that makes the South Burnett such a strong and vibrant region, while also giving residents the chance to speak directly with the Premier and Ministers about the issues that matter most to them,” Mrs Frecklington said.
“I’ll continue working hard to deliver for our communities and make sure the priorities of South Burnett families, businesses and community groups are front and centre.”
A State Government spokesperson said the South Burnett was already benefitting from recent investments, including:
- Permanent funding for the Youth Crime Taskforce and Early intervention youth programs, including the Kickstarter program delivered through South Burnett CTC
- New education facilities at Cherbourg State School
- Funding to deliver improved services and patient care at Murgon Hospital
- Planning and development funding for the Barlil Weir near Murgon
- Honouring our Veterans program support for the Kingaroy-Memerambi RSL Sub-Branch
Expressions of interest are now open for community members wishing to attend an afternoon tea with the Cabinet or request a meeting with a Minister to raise local issues or discuss specific priorities.
- Registration requests can be made online
