Petition

The petition of residents of the State of Queensland draws to the
attention of the House the totally inadequate provision of policing
resources in Tewantin, Noosaville and Noosa Heads by the State
Government, leaving Noosa Shire’s ever increasing population without
appropriate protection.

Your petitioners therefore request the House to establish a police beat
within Tewantin that will operate in conjunction with a fully-manned 24
hour police station at Coolum. Further the petitioners request the House
to amend the resource allocation model used by the Queensland Police
Service to ensure that policing resources are appropriately allocated to
property service areas of high growth and population fluctuations
attributable to high levels of tourism.
