Peter Slipper Calls for Cooperation
As time is running out for public consultation on the Transport
and Main Roads proposed Bruce Highway closure of on/off ramps,
Member for Fisher Peter Slipper has asked for political games to
end and for cooperation to begin.
“I am disappointed the Member for Kawana did not respond to my
invitation to our Aussie World community forum issued the day
prior to his community gathering, and instead is now using this
to create conflict instead of cooperation” said Mr Slipper. “This
is an important issue which will affect everyone on the Sunshine
Coast and in particular those businesses and residents along the
7km strip with the proposed closure of six on/off ramps.
This needs to be our focus not political grandstanding.”
Mr Slipper issued invitations on the morning of Friday 13 January
for his 29 January public forum (taking place at Aussie World at
6pm) to Queensland Premier Anna Bligh, Federal Minister for
Infrastructure and Transport Anthony Albanese, Queensland
Minister for Main Roads Craig Thompson, Queensland Minister for
Transport Annastacia Palszczuk, all Sunshine Coast State members,
Sunshine Coast Council Mayor, Councillors and candidates, as well
as businesses and organisations actively working to address this
issues at hand.
“We should all be mindful that I am not in election mode so it’s
a shame Mr Bleijie is on a headline grabbing rampage in his
attempts for re‐election in the next few months instead of
working together for a positive outcome on this important
issue.”
