We promised Queenslanders we’d take real action to protect victims of domestic, family and sexual violence - and that’s exactly what we’re delivering.

We’re taking real action by ⏬️

πŸ”ΉEstablishing Queensland’s first Sexual Violence peak body through the Queensland Sexual Assault Network, a key recommendation the former Government refused to act on.

πŸ”ΉFast-tracking the Domestic & Family Violence peak body four years earlier than Labor to protect more victims sooner

πŸ”ΉThis comes in addition to our new laws including Police Protection Directions and GPS monitoring for high-risk DFV perpetrators.

After a decade of decline under Labor, we’re restoring safety to Queenslanders and holding perpetrators to account.

Secure Communities Partnership Program | Business Queensland

Queenslanders working in small and family businesses deserve to feel safe.

That's why we’re making small business precincts safer and delivering upgrades like CCTV and alarm systems to drive down crime.

He's already been working tirelessly to implement some new community safety initiatives and build strong local relationships - and this is just the beginning.

Wishing you all the best in this next chapter, Cameron. You're a great asset to Maleny and surrounds.

πŸ’§Protecting the environment after a pollution event is one of our highest priorities 

Today, I met with some of the Cairns team involved in the clean-up of local waterways following yesterday’s spill in Smiths Creek and Trinity Inlet.

My Department is working closely with the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority, Maritime Safety Queensland and other government partners, as well as with Boral, to contain material and restore the environment.  

⚠️Queensland’s Environment Department regulates industries and where appropriate holds polluters to account to make sure they meet their environmental obligations and community expectations.

πŸ”₯Note: the fire at the paint store is completely unrelated but is also being monitored.

SparkLab brings out the inner child in us all.

This amazing program invites young Queenslanders to ignite their imaginations through science, technology, engineering and maths.

It’s places like these where our future innovators and scientists are born.

After nearly two years of darkness due to repeated copper theft in various hotspots around SEQ, I’m pleased to share that our streetlights are finally working again here in Beerwah, and on the D'Aguilar Highway.

Thank you for your patience and persistence - it’s been a long time coming!

Best. Whisky. Ever!

Did you know Queensland has their own Whisky maker?

Privileged to get a sneak peek inside Stillmaker And Sons Distillery in Montville ahead of their official opening. Owners Mike and Sandra are so passionate about their craft.
