Electors of Gympie draws to the attention of the House to an emergency helicopter being unable to land at the Gympie Hospital helipad site due to foggy conditions and the resulting poor visibility making it unsafe to land. Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to: allocate funding to have the helipad upgraded to an all weather facility.
