The petition of residents of the State of Queensland draws to the attention of the House the blatant disregard shown by the new Labor State Government's decision to scrap the Childers community by scrapping a fully costed and approved heated hydrotherapy pool. The hydrotherapy pool would meet the needs of not only the elderly, but paediatrics and people with disabilities and injuries.

 

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to ensure Childers has access to vital health facilities they deserve, including an undercover heated hydrotherapy pool.  We ask that funding for this vital resource be reinstated.
