TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland
Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House that in Australia the push is on for more uranium mines, a new nuclear reactor and radioactive waste dumps. Despite enormous community opposition to the nuclear industry in Australia, Europe and the US, weapons stockpiles continue to grow, nuclear waste dumps are overflowing, mines are still scarring the landscape, and casualties of radioactivity are on the rise. Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to maintain Queensland's existing ban on uranium mining.
