TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland

The petition of electors of the division of Mulgrave draws to the attention of the House the Innisfail Community has been subjected to loss of power on a frequent basis over recent years affecting both the lives of domestic consumers and the commercial viability of many businesses and Ergon Energy has failed to maintain secure supply in breach of its contract with consumers.

Your petitioners therefore request the House to direct Ergon Energy to take whatever steps are required through maintenance and upgrading of infrastructure in order to guarantee secure supply of electricity to consumers.
