50 NEW HOMES FOR CAPE YORK
Politics plagues housing funding By MATT NICHOLLS MORE than 50 new homes will be built in Cape York communities to address major overcrowding issues, but the state government has taken all the credit, despite using federal funding. Not for the first time, the health and wellbeing of Queensland’s most remote and vulnerable residents has been politicised. State Member for Cook Cynthia Lui made the announcement last Friday, just eight days before the federal election. Housing has been a hot topic in Cape York and there has been mud thrown at Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch after the Morrison
government stopped a decade-long program for Indigenous housing. However, $105 million was given to the state government last year and it was this funding that would be used to build the new homes in seven Cape York and one Torres Strait council area. “This is a purely political announcement,” Mr Entsch said. “They have had this money since last year and it gets announced just before the election, without giving any credit to the federal government which provided the funding.” The veteran MP, who is in the midst of a major fight to retain his seat, also teed off at Ms Lui.

The Newcastle Bay II is 99.98 metres long, has an 18-metre beam and a 7.5-metre depth, according to Sea Swift.
This is the vessel that will fix wet season woes By MATT NICHOLLS
A PURPOSE-built cargo ship for Weipa and Horn Island should dramatically improve wet season services, Sea Swift says. The shipping company hopes to take delivery of Newcastle Bay II in October and have it in operation by Christmas. For the past two wet seasons, Sea Swift has been unable to keep up with the demand for freight in the Cape and Torres Strait after it de-commissioned Newcastle Bay in late 2019. Chairman and acting CEO Steve Boulton said the company was meant to have the new vessel in service in March last year, but delays had prolonged the delivery from China. “We expect construction to be complete in October and then for sea trials to be undertaken,” he told Cape York Weekly. “The big sea trial will be bringing it back (to Cairns). “We’ll do a series of equipment tests on board and hope to have it in service late this year or early next year.” Mr Boulton said Sea Swift stood by its decision to decommission its flagship vessel before its replacement was ready. “I don’t think we made the wrong call,” he said.

The Newcastle Bay II will transport food, fuel, medical supplies, mining equipment and other freight to Weipa.
“These are the scenarios you face in a dynamic business.” The acting CEO said COVID had put a strain on construction, including the availability of materials, such as steel. You make decisions with the information you have at the time,” he said. Newcastle Bay II is just a few centimetres shy of being 100 metres long. When up and running, it will have a maximum speed of 14 knots, propelled by a massive MAK Caterpillar engine, which operates on diesel oil. As well as being able to offer an increased cargo capacity, the
Newcastle Bay II will also have room for passengers, allowing Sea Swift to revive its cruises. SEARCH FOR CEO EXPECT a decision to be made soon on the new Sea Swift CEO. Mr Boulton said the company had narrowed down the candidates to four people and that final interviews should be conducted this week. “We’ve had some impressive candidates,” he said. Former CEO Rochelle Macdonald was in the chair for less than a year before resigning. WOOLWORTHS WOES WEIPA residents have been left furious after a number of
late barge arrivals left grocery shelves empty. The vessel that is meant to arrive in Weipa on Friday has often docked a day late, leaving little time for shelves to be stocked. Woolworths in Weipa is closed on Sunday due to state laws. Sea Swift’s Queensland operations manager Peter Domenighini said the punctuality issues were regrettable. “If we hit weather on the east coast we can’t catch up,” he said. “That vessel is slower in speed but once Newcastle Bay II arrives those problems will disappear.”

Teenager eyes 5000k club Helicopter saves day by conquering major trail for family By MATT NICHOLLS
FEWER than 50 people have made it all the way from Cooktown to Healesville since the Bicentennial National Trail opened in 1988. Rob Wylie managed to make it from Cooktown to Tamworth when he attempted it 25 years ago, but daughter Libby is aiming to make it all the way to Victoria – likely sometime next year. The father and daughter duo left Cooktown on Sunday and camped at the Lion’s Den Hotel. Speaking to Cape York Weekly from the iconic pub on Monday morning, Libby said it had all gone to plan thus far. “We trucked up three horses and then bought another one in Cooktown,” the 18-year-old said. “We’ll have a couple of riding horses and a couple of pack horses but will rotate them a little bit.” Her dad will ride with her for the first couple of months and Libby expects to be joined by other family and friends along the way. Tamworth was home for Rob in 1997 but the Wylies now live at Tea Gardens in NSW, just north of Newcastle. Libby said hearing stories about her dad’s trip had made her eager to do the iconic 5330km trail from Cooktown to Healesville.
Libby and Rob Wylie at the Lion’s Den Hotel on Monday morning, ready to tackle the Bicentennial National Trail.
“For as long as I can remember, anyway,” she said. “Mum and dad wanted me to wait until I was 18.” You don’t need to be an expert horse rider to do the National Trail, but you need to be a great horse manager, something Libby has got covered. She left school after Year 10 and has been working in the horse industry for the last two years. “She’s been on a horse since she was a little kid,” said her father. “There isn’t much she doesn’t know about horses.” Officially opened in 1988, the Bicentennial National Trail travels
along a mixture of roads and paddocks, as well as national parks. It follows the foothills of the Great Dividing Range and the eastern escarpment. The trail was originally conceived as a route for the long distance horse trekker but is now enjoyed by cyclists and hikers. Most people conquer sections of the trail but very few join the 5000k club. Two official bicentennial events were held to mark the opening. One was at Healesville, where RM Williams, then aged 80, led the procession, while the other was at Kilkivan a week later where
Premier, Mike Ahern opened the Queensland section. Libby said she was most looking forward to the Guy Fawkes National Park section of the trail around Ebor in northern NSW. “I’m not sure how long it’s going to take to do the whole trail but it will be next year,” she said. Her main transport will be a chestnut mare by the name of Tess. “We think she’s an Arab-cross stock horse,” Libby said. “She’s very fit and will go all day. She’s the horse I’ve done all my horse sports on.” You can follow Libby’s trail ride on Instagram at hoofbyhoof.
A FAMILY of four had to be rescued by helicopter on Sunday after submerging their vehicle on the Old Telegraph Track. Details were still unclear on Monday morning but acting Cape Inspector Peter Williamson said the couple and two young children made a distress call from a location on the iconic off-road track. “It seems their car got bogged or washed away in a creek and they were stuck there,” he said. “I think they’ve had a satellite phone and called for help.” A helicopter was sent from Horn Island and collected the family, taking them to Thursday Island. Inspector Williamson said travellers heading to the Cape should be wary of conditions before venturing off the main roads. “It’s been a good wet season and there’s been late rain, so the creeks are still up and the water levels are shifting whenever there is rain,” he said. “It was great that this family had a satellite phone but it could have been a different outcome if they didn’t. “As we always say, if it’s flooded, forget it. You don’t want to ruin your holiday.”

Council leaders from Cape York, the Torres Strait and Gulf gathered in Cooktown last week for the Torres and Cape Indigenous Councils Alliance meeting.
Councils vote to keep road open By MATT NICHOLLS
THE Torres and Cape Indigenous Councils Alliance has stood firm against the Irwin family, which is lobbying to have a key loop road closed in Cape York. At last week’s TCICA meeting in Cooktown, mayors and senior staff from the councils in the Cape, Torres Strait and Gulf gathered over two days to discuss regional matters of importance. Cook Shire Council briefed leaders on a move by Australia Zoo and Terri Irwin to seek the closure of the gazetted Bertiehaugh Road which traverses through part of the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve. The Irwin family and the zoo want to close the road to prevent people trespassing on the reserve. Weipa residents have lobbied for years to open the road and last year a group of residents pushed a track through using GPS. It has already been a hit with four-wheel drivers and provided tourism opportunities for the Cape. The move had the backing of the Western Cape Chamber of Commerce, which had worked closely with Cook Shire Council to get signs erected about the “do’s and don’ts” while traversing on the Bertiehaugh Road. Those signs are expected to be put up soon. “This has been an ongoing matter for TCICA, with the alliance resolving in 2018 and 2020 to keep the road reserve open,” a TCICA spokesperson said.
A draft version of the sign being erected at both ends of Bertiehaugh Road.
“The road is an important historical link between Mapoon and New Mapoon and cuts around 360 kilometres off the return journey for people travelling between these two communities. “Leaders noted concerns about the lack of Australia Zoo’s engagement with Traditional Owners and that not one local Indigenous person was employed on the wildlife reserve. “Further, when mayors met with Australia Zoo in Mapoon in 2020 they indicated their strong willingness to work with Australia Zoo to ensure that responsibility for the appropriate protection, interpretation and maintenance aspects of Bertiehaugh Road would be shared. “This was to address Australia Zoo’s concerns about people trespassing on the wildlife reserve, fires and habitat loss, and increased management costs, yet Australia Zoo has failed to engage in any constructive discussion.” The council representatives
had a busy agenda in Cooktown. Mayor Peter Scott said the TCICA gatherings were a highlight on the calendar. “There’s a real collegiate-type feeling at the TCICA gatherings and a lot of the councils are sharing the same issues,” he said. “There is a lot of respect around that table.” TCICA is working on a range of key projects to deliver on its strategic intent of enabling cooperation and coordination, supporting regional growth, and advocating on regionally significant issues. One focus is regional resilience. “TCICA continues to focus on regional resilience building and will soon submit a final application to the Queensland Reconstruction Authority to fund coordinated regional resilience activities for the next two years, aligned to the soon-to-be-completed Regional Resilience Strategy,” the TCICA spokesperson said. Alex Ung of UNGANCO presented to leaders the $4.4 million
federally-funded Cape Resilience Project which will see world-leading cloud-based asset management systems implemented in nine member councils to address asset risk management and renewal. Aligned with TCICA’s regional resilience objectives, the project will support councils better prepare for disaster events through planned maintenance scheduling and help councils drive business efficiencies by giving them the tools to optimise asset performance. Up to eight part time staff will be embedded in councils for on-theground project support throughout the life of the project. Connor Clarke and Greg McLean of Plastics Pirate and Kenny Reid of Cooktown’s Auswaste Environmental Services, spoke to TCICA about their plastics waste to energy project which will be piloted in Cape York. “Together they are working to establish a hub at the Lakeland Transfer Station to process waste plastic from the agricultural sector and from the Cape and Torres Strait, to generate usable fuels including diesel, and eventually produce products such as lumber or materials from certain types of plastic waste,” the TCICA spokesperson said. Using the power of pyrolysis to turn plastic into treasure, Plastics Pirate is first to market in Australia with mobile plastic pyrolysis plants. “Their point of difference is they produce usable fuels on-site

and straight from the plant,” TCICA’s spokesperson said. Mayors spoke of the need to reinvigorate Community Justice Groups, which play an important role in communities to address justice-related issues using cultural leadership. Leaders felt that the role of CJGs had diminished over time and that group representatives were not provided with a clear understanding of the activities and services of CJGs, especially as foundational group members and community Elders have passed on. Andrew Clarkson and Cameron Woolla from Glencore briefed TCICA on the progress of the Aurukun bauxite project, which is expected to generate hundreds of jobs in the region. Glencore is currently advancing the development of a partnership agreement with Traditional Owners, informed by family consultation. The company is awaiting the review of its draft Environmental Impact Statement by the coordinator-general, with other key approval and agreement requirements in focus throughout 2022. More than 250 parties have expressed interest in participating in building and construction works and Glencore has commenced preemployment training for the development of a strong local workforce. TCICA’s next meeting is scheduled for July 12 and 13 in Cairns.
Politics plagues housing announcement for Cape By MATT NICHOLLS
IT’S great news for Cape York communities, but last week’s multi-million dollar housing announcement has a bitter taste to it after politics came into play. Both the state and federal governments have been playing games with the lives of remote Queensland residents when it comes to housing and Friday’s announcement was no different. Member for Cook Cynthia Lui was happy to take the credit for the state government’s announcement to build more than 60 homes, plus extensions and subdivisions, in Cape York and Torres Strait communities. But the release did not give credit to where the funding came from. It mentioned $105 million from a Forward Capital Program but did not say that it was a Commonwealth initiative. Understandably, federal MP Warren Entsch, who also wants the credit ahead of an election contest, was peeved. “That money was released to the state government last year,” he said. “Why is that announcement being made now?” Both the federal LNP and state Labor governments have had a headstrong approach to the housing situation, refusing to work side-by-side to address overcrowding problems. It’s in complete contrast to the Peninsula Developmental Road upgrades, which have been a joint project between the state and federal governments. The Commonwealth funds most of the works, while the state chips in and manages the sealing of the road. Ms Lui’s office did not respond when asked about the origins of the housing, but in a media release she said all the funds would go to local councils. “What is pleasing is that the councils will project manage these works,” she said.

Cooktown gets its university hub By MATT NICHOLLS
COOK Shire mayor Peter Scott has praised the decision to fund a university hub in Cooktown, saying it was something he had been lobbying to get for more than a decade. Yesterday, just days out from the federal election, Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch made the announcement that Cooktown would be one of eight communities to share in $14.8 million to create a university centre. The Cooktown centre would complement one of 26 existing centres operating in Australia. “This is huge for us,” Cr Scott said when hearing the news. “I have been trying the whole time I have been here – ever since I sent my kids away to school – to get some kind of university presence in Cooktown.” The centres provide a direct link to all universities in Australia and Cr Scott hoped James Cook University and CQU would start to ramp up their interest in Cape York students. “I saw last week that the federal government was supporting the creation of a CQU city campus in Cairns, which is going to be fantastic for the Far North,” Cr Scott said. “We need our next generation chasing university degrees and bringing that knowledge back home.”
Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch with Barnaby Joyce at last week’s LNP announcement to fund a new campus for CQU in Cairns.
It should be noted that Labor had already announced its support for the CQU campus, meaning it will go ahead regardless of the election result. Cr Scott said Cook Shire Council had already identified a vacant building on Charlotte Street that would be suitable for the university centre. Cape York Weekly understands the former TAB building will be used, located next to the Cooktown newsagent. “We want it to be an innovation
hub as well as a study hub. We’ve got a great robotics school at Endeavour Christian College and three great schools in Cooktown,” Cr Scott said. Mr Entsch welcomed the announcement and said the centre was a key component of the government’s commitment to improving higher education participation and attainment in regional and remote Australia. “Our local rural and regional students deserve the very best when it comes to their education,
and it’s initiatives like this one that will ensure that students can study close to home without having to leave their communities,” he said. Regional Education Minister Bridget McKenzie said the new centre was an exciting development for Cooktown “This centre will significantly boost higher education outcomes for current and future students in Cooktown and the surrounding region,” Senator McKenzie said. “People in regional Australia are less than half as likely to complete
a university degree compared with people in cities. It is wonderful that once this centre is up and running, local students won’t need to leave home and relocate to study. “They will be able to enrol in a university course and complete a degree or another tertiary qualification and their skills could stay in the region and help the community. The Cooktown centre is expected to be open in October this year. It will be operated by Country Universities Centre in partnership with Cook Shire Council.

Close race predicted by experts
By MATT NICHOLLS Cape York Weekly editor
SCOTT Morrison, Barnaby Joyce and Anthony Albanese have made a number of appearances in Cairns since the election was called, which signals that Leichhardt is clearly in play this election. Will veteran MP Warren Entsch continue his unbeaten record at the polls? Or will it be second time lucky for Elida Faith? Who will be the plucky underdog that surprises with more votes than expected? While Cape York has missed out on high-profile leader or minister visits, the electorate has not. It’s somewhat understanding, considering Cairns holds the majority of the votes, but also frustrating for those living in communities that desperately need attention. Much has changed since we last voted in 2019. There was a little thing called COVID-19, which closed borders,
Labor candidate Elida Faith with Anthony Albanese and his partner Jodie Haydon on Fitzroy Island, off Cairns, on Friday.
forced us to stay at home for periods and generally stuffed around with our way of life. Cairns was one of the biggest losers from COVID in terms of the tourism industry, which suffered
as a result of international border closures, as well as the constant changing of state border rules. Some businesses managed to stay afloat or pivot into new markets, but many did not.
The federal government has been hanging its hat on the JobKeeper program it rolled out, which no doubt benefited many businesses and employees. Despite the best hopes of the
minor parties, it’s clear that Leichhardt will be won by either the LNP’s Entsch or Labor’s Faith. On a national scale, the polls are suggesting we are in for a change of government. However, those same polls also said the Morrison government couldn’t win in 2019, either. If I were a betting man, I’d say Leichhardt is going to be won or lost by fewer than 1000 votes. I’m happy to sit on the fence when it comes to declaring the winner. However, I think Labor is shaping to form the next government. Whether its outright or with the help of other parties and independents remains to be seen. The good news for those of us living in Leichhardt is that we shouldn’t be taken for granted going forward. Being in a marginal seat is the best way to be in Australia. It’s now time for Cape York to start thinking big in preparation for the 2025 election.

Wattle Hills Station is hard to access in the dry season, let alone the wet season. Directors of the company that leases the property say that fuel from the generator that services the Wattle Hills radio tower has never been stolen, despite claims from Warren Entsch.
Wattle Hills hurt by Entsch claims
IT seems that the Member for Leichhardt Warren Entsch, in the shadow of a looming election, will now say anything to deflect attention away from his long standing failure in providing the Lockhart River community with the safety of essential telecommunication services. Not only has he blamed the Lockhart River mayor Wayne Butcher for his own inability to provide the community with reliable phone/internet services over the course of the last 10 years, but he is now also slandering private Cape York landholders for his failures in telecommunication provision on Cape York more broadly (Cape York Weekly, May 9). Mr Entsch is quoted as saying in a recent interview with ABC Brisbane journalist Steve Austin, “we are trying to by-pass Wattle Hills because we have had problems with fuel disappearing from the generators, there are people helping themselves”. Mr Entsch has deliberately mislead the people of Cape York in this statement. No theft of fuel from the radio tower generator has occurred. To quote Telstra correspondence to Wattle Hills on May 10: “I am not aware of any
fuel theft from Pascoe River Radio Tower in the last 10 years that I have been Manager of NQ Remote for Telstra Global Business Services”. Mr Entsch would know the truth of this matter but has decided to abandon truth for the sake of self-serving political scapegoating. Wattle Hills has disappointedly been used as an unsuspecting target in Mr Entsch’s desperate attempt to distract from his responsibilities. Rather than attempting to divide the Cape York community by spreading falsehoods, he would better serve Cape York residents by representing them honestly, and working constructively and cooperatively with all to provide the services that the rest of Australia takes for granted. State Minister Mark Bailey may have expressed it best in last week’s article, describing Mr Entsch’s outrageous slurs and lies as “a dog act ... and he should be ashamed of himself”. The leaseholder of Wattle Hills, Scudo Pty Ltd eagerly awaits an equally public apology from Mr Entsch. – The Directors, Scudo Pty Ltd
Cape York families supported to stay SAFE The Cape York/Gulf Remote Area Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Child Care (RAATSICC) Advisory Association has been walking alongside families in Far North Queensland for more than 30 years. The community-controlled not-for-profit organisation’s services include a women’s shelter, domestic violence support, counselling services, redress support, and family care services for families and children in Aurukun, Kowanyama, Napranum and most recently Lockhart River. One of the family care services on offer is the Queensland Government-funded Family Wellbeing Service – or the Strong Active Family Engagement Service (SAFE) as the RAATSICC team call it. RAATSICC Chief Executive Officer Francis Jose said the SAFE program supports First Nations families with children experiencing vulnerability, from before they are born up to 18 years of age. “SAFE focuses on a family’s social, emotional, physical and spiritual strengths to develop healthy relationships and connections so parents can safely care for themselves and their children,” Mr Jose said. “Families can access this free, practical and confidential support
as often as they need. “The program can help in so many different ways, including building parenting skills and kinship connections, helping with budgeting and household responsibilities, or referrals to specialist services like counselling or healthcare. “Families everywhere can experience stress, and this service is about providing culturallyappropriate services for our First Nations families. “We’ve helped more than 300 families in the Far North through the SAFE program since we introduced it in 2018, which is a great result.” Mr Jose shared the story of a Cape York family referred to the program and the benefits it had for the single parent and child. “Our SAFE worker approached the family to yarn about some concerns we had and talk about the best way to move forward,” he said. “It took several attempts to engage with the client, but after a series of visits our SAFE worker was able to get to know the family storyline and find out what was happening. “We learnt both parents and the child had experienced recent trauma that was affecting the family unit. “We worked with our client to provide better support for the
RAATSICC Family Wellbeing Service team members (from left) Support Worker Alex Baryla, Team Leader Tula Junna, Manager Rita Suavai and Support Worker Taua Kereru child at home and school, and to access health and counselling services. “Through SAFE’s advocacy and care for this family, the parent now has a better understanding of what support services are available and how to make better choices for the safety and wellbeing for the child and the family. “The parent now has the confidence and courage to independently address any future worries or concerns because of their involvement with the SAFE program.” Mr Jose said RAATSICC’s vision to empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families and their children was always front of mind for the dedicated staff. “The team here are incredible and so passionate about helping
families make positive choices and raise happy and healthy children,” he said. “Being connected to culture is one of the best ways to support families, and it’s something we’re absolutely committed to here. “We use a family-led decision-making process to make sure families can access the right mix of services designed for their specific needs. “By walking together with families and children, we can all help to keep our kids safe, strong and connected to culture.” The Queensland Government provides $42 million each year for 34 Family Wellbeing Services to support First Nations families from the Torres Strait in the north to St George in the south.

Experts aplenty at Laura Grazing Forum FROM genetics and breeder performance to fire fighting and carbon abatement, this year’s Cape York NRM Grazing Forum will bring more than 20 experts to Laura to help graziers improve their businesses and their land. Cape York NRM acting CEO Bob Frazer said the event was a quiet achiever on the land management calendar and was becoming one of the organisation’s
most popular stakeholder forums since its inception in 2015. “It’s an opportunity for likeminded people to get together to discuss opportunities and challenges we face on the Cape within the grazing industry,” he said. “I am thrilled that we can continue to provide the space for grazier collaboration and knowledge sharing. We have a jam-packed program this year
with an exceptional lineup of speakers.” Popular cattleman Luke Quartermaine of Watson River Station, will be master of ceremonies, introducing leading organisations such as AgForce and Gulf Savannah NRM, and a number of experts. such as Dr Kieran McKosker from Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation and Dr Tony Parker from Meat and Livestock
Australia, who is at the forefront of innovative animal nutrition. “We’ll also get out of the classroom for a paddock walk in the afternoon to gain skills in erosion prevention and remediation with legend Bob Shepherd,” Mr Frazer said. “There is so much more, it is hard to single everyone out.” The 2022 Grazing Forum at Laura will start today (Tuesday) and finish tomorrow.
NEWS IN BRIEF Social enterprise grant JAMES Cook University has been awarded a $163,500 grant for a project that aims to increase the number of social enterprises in the Far North, including Cape York. The JCU project would be delivered in Cairns, Port Douglas, Atherton, Mareeba, Thursday Island, Cooktown, Lockhart River and Weipa. The first phase of the project would gather information from Indigenous social enterprises about their challenges, training and coaching needs for growth, and the crossover with Indigenous values and traditions. The second phase would focus on building capacity and capability through mentoring programs both online and faceto-face sessions, while a third phase would establish communities of practice with ongoing support from JCU and the Social Enterprise Network for the Tropics (SENT).
Police charge teens
Graziers say it is hard to keep cattle out of national parks after the wet season as property is inaccessible and fences get damaged by flooding.
Small win for graziers as planned shoot is paused A STRONG push by Cape York land holders and Katter’s Australian Party has stopped a planned aerial shoot of cattle in the Oyala Thumotang National Park – for now. The Department of Environment and Science postponed its controversial cattle cull in Cape York, saying it was because it wanted to give landowners more notice of planned activities. The announcement came in the wake of urgent calls from neighbours and political figures for Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon to immediately suspend planned “shoot to kill” cattle operations by the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service. Wolverton Station, which
shares its southern boundary with the national park, wrote a strongly-worded letter to Member for Cook Cynthia Lui, urging the state government to stop the planned shoot. “The cattle industry across Far North Queensland has been unsupported by the Queensland government ... my request to meet with the Minister on more than one occasion has been met with a lack of enthusiasm from the department,” it said. The stray cattle management program has been taking place in Cape York national parks since 2014. It’s estimated that around 5000 cattle have been shot since the program began, worth up to
$5 million on today’s market. Katter’s Australian Party Member for Hill Shane Knuth renewed his calls for the cull to be stopped, saying he had raised the issue previously in parliament, and forwarded two letters from adjoining Cape York property owners to the minister, asking for operations to be suspended until they could obtain permits to collect their valuable branded cattle. Graziers say it takes up to 50 days to secure the permits they need to legally access national parks land in order to attempt to muster cattle, and they say notice of at least two months must be given. A departmental spokesman
said that under its good neighbour policy, they notify neighbours before conducting any pest management activities that include the use of firearms, herbicides or pesticides along any shared boundaries. “There is no legislated time frame for the notice period, but QPWS maintains strong working relationships with neighbours, and we routinely give them 14 days notice prior to conducting operations,” the spokesperson said. “When rangers conducted an administrative review this morning and identified some neighbours had been given less than 14 days, we immediately suspended the program.”
WEIPA police last week arrested two boys aged 15 and 16 following reports of several businesses being broken into. It will be alleged on the night of Sunday, May 8 and the morning of Monday, May 9, the boys smashed a glass front door of a Weipa business to gain entry before stealing several mobile phones. It will be further alleged the boys forced their way into a shopping centre, causing extensive damage, before using a large rock to break a window to one of the shops before leaving. At around 1.30pm that same day, police located and arrested the boys. A 16-year-old Weipa boy was charged with two counts of enter premise and one count of attempted enter premise. A 15-year-old Napranum boy was charged with two counts of enter premise and one count of attempted enter premise. Police recovered several items of property.
Couple thanks community THE couple who found themselves bogged outside of Kowanyama have written a letter to thank rescuers and the general community. “Thank you once again to everyone that was involved in our rescue as we now get to share more time with our family and friends which is a gift that is priceless,” said Donna and Craig Ferguson. They also left some bracelets as gifts for some of the main players in the rescue, including SES personnel and Traditional Owners.

Mayor’s daughter finding her voice TORRES Strait Regional Authority board member Tailisa Yusia is paving the way for more young women and mothers to have a say in their communities. At 34, she’s among the TSRA’s youngest board members. As TSRA’s Member for Bamaga, she’s embracing opportunities to learn and advocate for women, her community and the people of Zenadth Kes (Torres Strait). “It’s a privilege to work alongside experienced community leaders. I’m trying to gain as much knowledge as I can,” Ms Yusia said. “My community motivates me, because I would like to enhance things that are working and look for resources for areas that can work better and smarter.” She credits her father, mother and traditional adopted mother as her inspiration. “My father Jonathan has strong work ethics. He’s a protector, provider and a leader who inspires me to always put my head down and work for what I want,” she said. “My mother Patricia (the NPARC mayor) is my strength in voice and a very hard worker, who enables me to speak up and advocate for what’s right. “My adopted mother taught me you are never too old to get qualifications. She was 65 when she obtained her qualifications in nursing.” Ms Yusia said it was important to do away with self-doubt. “Never give up or lose faith in yourself,” she said. “Always remember if there is not a path, we as women, will find a way to make a path.” She has challenged gender and cultural expectations to prioritise a university education and start her family later. After more than a decade of study, she holds a Master of Social Work, Bachelor of
TSRA board member Tailisa Yusia.
Business/Community Services, a Certificate IV in Governance and a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment. “I studied for many years, but also prayed to be a mother,” she said. “I have my blessing, so now I want to spend time with my daughter and also balance full-time work and TSRA board commitments.” Ms Yusia would like to see more women on boards and in leadership roles. “COVID-19 has taught us to be more flexible to do work at home,” she said. “Technology has made it really easy – it’s not the traditional style of working. “This generation can be working from home or anywhere. “It’s good to have women’s perspectives on boards and views from people of all ages.” In 2021, Ms Yusia supported the delivery of the Torres Strait Maritime Pathways Project – a certified coxswain course in Bamaga – to 20 participants, including three women. Her priorities include increasing economic development and infrastructure and improving social and emotional wellbeing services and the quality of education for future generations.

SPORT IN BRIEF Helen in hot form SOME early afternoon rain scared off a few golfers from last week’s Wednesday Wackers, meaning just 10 finished the nine-hole round. Helen Sabatino would have beaten a field of 50, though. She had three birdies for 39 off the stick and a nett 24. Her partner Randall O’Neill also had a blinder with a couple of birdies. They also claimed both nearest to pins. Viv Chan was runner-up while Jim Hunter took the Bradman’s. Meanwhile, Viv took out Sunday’s Dawn Busters golf. She beat Jim Lucas. Tanner Granzien had the longest drive, while Dylan Wonfor claimed the Hoffman’s. This was the last time senior rugby league was played in the Cape Cluster. The 2019 grand final between Napranum and Lockhart River was a thriller.
Vicky Molloy, Sharon Gardiner, Helen Sabatino and Viv Chan at Weipa on Saturday.
Narrow pairs victory SHARON Gardiner and Vicki Molloy were the winners of Carpentaria Golf Club’s stableford pairs event on Saturday. They had 43 points to win the Sixtsponsored event on a countback from the in-form Viv Chan and Helen Sabatino. Nearest to pins went to Peter Linnehan on 7 and Gardiner on 18. The Carpentaria Golf Club championships start this weekend.
Tough start to champs GOLFERS found conditions tough for the opening of Cooktown Golf Club’s championships, with fast greens and difficult pin placements. John McArthur won the day’s event to lead B-grade. Sam Godfrey-Roberts leads A-grade, while Laurie Downs has the advantage in C-grade. The nearest to the pins went to McArthur on 2/11, Godfrey-Roberts on 14 and Rick Butler on 9/18.
Senior footy returning to the Cape after long spell By MATT NICHOLLS
ONE thousand days. That’s how long it has been since senior rugby league was last played in Cape York. This Saturday, it will be precisely 1005 days since Lockhart River held up the trophy after winning the 2019 Cape Cluster. The threat of COVID-19 put a stop to the 2020 season and last year’s competition was unable to get off the ground due to a lack of support in the region. Senior footy will return to the Cape on Saturday when teams from Aurukun, Lockhart River, Napranum and Weipa gather at Andoom Oval. Queensland Rugby League northern region manager Renae Kunst is making the trip to Weipa and said she can’t wait to see the return of rugby league in the Cape. The former Jillaroo has been

working in North Queensland grassroots rugby league for several years and is impressed with the passion for the game. However, she says the regions now need to become more independent of the state body in order to be sustainable. “It’s up to the clubs and the communities to stand on their own two feet,” she said. “We are going to head up and
do some courses with the players and volunteers to help them become capable and compliant, and then it will be up to them for the rest of the season. “We appreciate that Cape York and other remote regions have their challenges but there’s just not enough funding to keep flying in officials and trainers for every weekend they play.” Kunst said players would be
put through a referees course prior to kick-off to give them the credentials to officiate games. “Players won’t have to referee a whole game but they can do split shifts or rotate among themselves,” she said. “The most important thing is to make sure that rugby league can operate without QRL staff being there.” Lockhart River will be seen as the team to beat in 2022 on the back of their successive titles in 2018 and 2019. Scorpions coach Wayne Butcher said it was unfortunate that COVID prevented the team from a three-peat. Saturday’s schedule 1pm: Referee course 3pm: Lockhart River Scorpions v Napranum Bulldogs 4pm: Girls’ under-17 clinic 4.30pm: Aurukun Kang Kang v Weipa Raiders 5pm: Women’s clinic
