The largest land acquisition for conservation in QLD in a decade. 🌱 Today I announced the @AnnastaciaMP Gov has purchased 131,900h of land in the state on Cape York Peninsula. This acquisition will unite more than a million hectares of protected areas and Aboriginal land.

Modular homes take a fraction of the time it would take to build a home from the ground up, especially in regional communities.   That’s why we’ve delivered more modular homes to Gladstone.   They’re part of our Big Build, delivering thousands of homes across the state. 🏠
