Queensland Citizens draws to the attention of the House: the lack of a multicultural community hub in the south west corridor of Brisbane.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to: transfer the former Pallara State School site and all existing infrastructure at 282 Ritchie Road, Pallara in Trust to the Brisbane City Council at no cost, so it can be activated as a community facility for the purpose of a Multicultural Community Hub. This facility will support local multicultural groups to continue traditions of language, art, music, dance, food, and culture, along with training, awareness and wellbeing programs for the multicultural and wider community.
