Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House the impact that crocodile populations along the Fitzroy River have in and around Rockhampton, especially in regards to the safety of the people of Rockhampton and their ability to safely engage in water recreation activities on the river.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to do all within its power to make Rockhampton an Active Removal Zone for crocodiles, in the same way that Cairns and Townsville are classified.
