Functions of the Committee
The information on this page relates to the committee of the 51st Parliament, which was discharged after the tabling of its report.
On 19 April 2005 the Legislative Assembly, on the motion of the Premier and Minister for Trade, resolved:
- That a select committee, to be known as the Palm Island Select Committee be appointed to examine a range of issues currently facing the Palm Island community. Noting the unique social structure and recent history of Palm Island, the challenge of delivering appropriate services in remote communities and the concept of partnerships between governments and Indigenous communities, the Committee will investigate and report on in particular:
- The effectiveness of local government arrangements and barriers to the provision of municipal services and propose options for improvement,
- Legal measures to ensure infrastructure development, can proceed particularly the stock of housing and Government facilities and residential accommodation,
- With a focus on youth, options to improve the coordination of government services specifically addressing skills development, sport, recreation and cultural needs.
The Palm Island Select Committee reported to the Queensland Parliament on Thursday, 25 August.
