    Public submissions are now open for the Women’s Public submissions are now open for the Women’s Safety and Justice Taskforce. We’re inviting women, including victims and survivors of domestic and family violence, to come forward and talk about their experiences dealing with the criminal justice system. Women face barriers when they seek help and report on violence, and we know it can draw out the legal process and add to their trauma. The Taskforce, chaired by the Honourable Margaret McMurdo AC, is investigating these barriers and wants to hear directly from Queensland women to inform this vital work. Submissions can be made in confidence through the secure portal: www.womenstaskforce.qld.gov.au.
    I’m very concerned about the recent announcement I’m very concerned about the recent announcement of NAB to permanently close the branch in Texas. I have spoken to business owners about their challenges to secure a place to do face-to-face business banking.

    Private Edward Benjamin Waldron Harvey enlisted in Private Edward Benjamin Waldron Harvey enlisted into the Army on 24 September 1914. He was assigned to the 5th Light Horse Regiment, C Squadron. He embarked on HMAT Persic at Sydney bound for Egypt. Edward remained in Egypt for six months before being dispatched to Anzac Cove, Gallipoli to provide reinforcements to the soldiers who had sustained heavy losses. Edward was one of the lucky Australians who returned home after the war. He returned to his family and to farming. He was one of thousands of Western Queenslanders to give service during WWI and one of many less to return. Tomorrow is the 106th Anzac Day and like all those before we pause to remember those who have fought to keep us safe and we honour those who never made it back. Lest we forget
