This is an issue which I have been following, as has Mr Andrew Cripps, the local state member. Mr Cripps made very strong submissions to the Queensland state government regarding the closure by the Queensland government of this particular facility. I am pleased to see a report in a newspaper which indicates that the closure of the centre will now not happen and that the Queensland government has, in fact, provided the $50,000 injection required to retain the Garners Beach cassowary rehabilitation centre in Mission Beach.
Question agreed to.
