It is Budget day for the Queensland State Government Today we find out how the State Government is going to spend around $65 billion over the next year.

We are fighting for for a new health precinct for the North Gold Coast to take the pressure off an over burdened health system. We need to fast track a new Hospital with an emergency department with over night beds for the Northern Gold Coast

A couple highlights of the weekend. Today Helensvale Lions celebrated 40 years of dedicated service to our local community. Stewart Proud is the last of the founding members in the club and over the years he has seen many changes to our district.
