To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of
Queensland.

The petition of the residents and electors of the Shire of Esk draws to
the attention of the House that residents in many parts of Esk Shire are
inadequately represented due to the abolition of electoral divisions,
which was brought about by the arbitrary decision of the Council and
without the democratic process of community consultation.

Your petitioners, the undersigned electors and residents of the Shire of
Esk, hereby state that it is our will that the House reintroduce
electoral divisions so as to facilitate and improve a fairer system of
representation.
