Direct support will be provided to schools in communities experiencing high cost of living pressures and food insecurity.

The health and wellbeing of students is important, as we know a student with a healthy diet and a full stomach performs not only better in the classroom but will develop healthy habits that can last a lifetime.

Plus, $500,000 to deliver healthy food options at 253 Queensland state schools

$1,000 will be slashed up front thanks to the Queensland Government and an extra $300 from the Federal Government. 

That means most Bayside households won’t pay a cent on their energy bill until March 2025.

Plus, Bayside small businesses will also receive $650 off their bill.

It’s only possible because we’re making the multinational mining companies pay their fair share and because we kept our energy assets in public hands.

From 5 August, the cost of all Translink public transport services will be slashed to 50 cents, no matter where you live or how far you travel.

New Premier Steven Miles’ number one priority is taking pressure off Queenslanders’ household
budgets. The upcoming budget will deliver the biggest cost of living relief in Queensland’s history.

As part of this unprecedented budget, the Premier has announced from 5 August 2024 the Miles Labor Government will lower all public transport fares to 50 cents a trip for 6 months.

By lowering fares to 50 cents we’re taking pressure off household bills and easing congestion. 

It’s important that Caucus demonstrate how the Miles Government is putting more money back in the
pockets of Queenslanders and taking cars off the road.

A Mobile Police Beat is a ‘police station on wheels’ where Baysiders can visit and seek advice and support from local police. 

They can be strategically deployed at short notice where needed most, responding to changes in crime, trends and community concerns. 

Community members can request a mobile police beat to be deployed to a preferred location as needed, providing greater access and support from policing resources as well as a high-visibility presence in hotspots. 

Officers attached to the ‘police station on wheels’ will be able to discuss local crime issues and provide crime prevention and general advice to local residents and business owners.

It’s a great initiative that gives our Bayside greater and more efficient access to police.
