Mr LAWLOR (Southport-ALP) (10.12 am): I lay upon the table of the House the report of the Palm Island Select Committee. I also table submissions to the committee's inquiry that the committee has authorised for publication and tabling.
The select committee has investigated a range of issues concerning Palm Island and in its report makes 65 recommendations about matters, including ways to improve governance and the provision of municipal services on the island; reform to land tenure and housing delivery arrangements; and a range of issues that particularly relate to young people on the island, such as education and training, employment, leadership development, sport and recreational activities, community and cultural enhancement, health, law and order, child safety and alcohol and drug abuse. I commend the report to the House and give notice that I intend to move that the House take note of the report.
