The Queensland Parliament’s Education, Arts and Communities Committee will host a public hearing at Bribie Island RSL Club on February 28 from 9-11am.

Committee Chair and State Member for Keppel Nigel Hutton says:

“Our seniors are the foundation of our community, and it is our duty to protect and respect them. This inquiry is a crucial step toward understanding the challenges they face and enhancing the measures in place to safeguard their well-being”.
