Join us at Qld Parliament House with our friends at Lock The Gate to speak up against the State Development Bill.
This new far-reaching Bill would allow the Queensland Government to skip critical assessments within Planning and environmental approvals processes to fast track developments including coal and gas as well as override community consultation processes.
We desperately need stronger laws to protect Qld's incredible landscapes and threatened plants and wildlife, but instead our current state government is further eroding those protections.
Speak up to protect Queensland
A close look at this Bill shows it would grant extensive new powers to the Coordinator-General.
Companies will be given more rights to seize private land for their mining or other developments. Landholders and regional communities can be locked out of consultation and appeal rights, riding roughshod over their legitimate concerns.
Thousands of Queensland farmers, Traditional Owners, conservation groups, nature-lovers, and concerned citizens have made submissions against this Bill. Now we need to make our voices heard outside Parliament.
