TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland

The petition of citizens of Queensland draws to the attention of the
House the inequality of funding of our State Orchestra and note
enthusiastically the Hon Anna Bligh’s statement – Hansard 23 March 2005.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to continue the resolve of
the Queensland Government to support the Queensland Orchestra and by
Agreement with the Federal Government provide resources to ensure
Queensland has a world-class orchestra, capable of performing the full
orchestral repertoire and ensuring access to all Queenslanders.
