Queensland residents draws the attention of the House to the serious concerns that many Brisbane residents have about proposals to allow for jet boat joy rides to be commercially operated on the Brisbane River. Particular concerns include fears of excessive noise from these boats, problems caused by wash including bank erosion as well as fears for the safety of other river users. Your petitioners therefore request the House to ensure that these proposals to allow for commercial jet boat joy rides on the Brisbane River are rejected.
