Cyclone Alfred Surfers Paradise Beach

Sam Bernardo 3/05/2025 0 Comments

As Tropical Cyclone Alfred approaches the South East Queensland coastline, the Queensland Police Service (QPS) has commenced deployments to assist with preparations and support local communities ahead of the weather system’s arrival.

Today, 176 police officers and recruits are deploying to the Gold Coast, with the State Police Operations Centre (SPOC) working closely with the district to monitor the evolving situation and determine whether additional personnel will be required in coming days.

QPS officers and staff from across the South East region, including recruits, general duties officers, specialist police, and police staff, are working alongside State Emergency Service (SES) volunteers, Marine Rescue Queensland (MRQ), and other partner agencies to assist communities and enhance response capability ahead of the cyclone’s impact.

In addition to these local deployments, officers from Far North Queensland – a region with significant experience responding to severe weather events – are also providing assistance, demonstrating the collaborative spirit and operational readiness of QPS during large-scale events.

Acting Police Commissioner, Shane Chelepy APM, acknowledged the significant effort already underway and praised the cooperation between officers, staff, volunteers, and emergency services partners.

“With Tropical Cyclone Alfred still approaching, QPS has already mobilised 176 officers and recruits to assist on the Gold Coast, and we stand ready to deploy further resources as required,” Acting Commissioner Chelepy said.

“This response reflects the strength of our partnerships across the service and the community, with police, staff, SES, Marine Rescue Queensland and others all working together to ensure our communities are as prepared and supported as possible.

“I want to particularly thank our colleagues from Far North Queensland, who are no strangers to these types of events. Their willingness to step up and assist is a reminder of the incredible teamwork and resilience our service demonstrates time and again.

-small;">“Our message to the community is clear please stay informed, follow official advice, and take all necessary precautions to protect yourselves and your families.”

The QPS will continue to monitor conditions and provide further updates as required.

For the latest information and advice, visit the QPS website and follow QPS on social media.

Energy rebates helping Queenslanders as inflation eases

Inflation slows as energy rebates ease cost-of-living pressures for Queenslanders
ABS data shows Brisbane’s CPI growth slowed to 5.2 per cent in September quarter 2023
Reduction in electricity prices a key contributor to easing inflation

The Palaszczuk Government’s record $ 8 billion cost-of-living relief package is driving down inflation.

Brisbane’s headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) growth eased to 5.2 per cent in September quarter 2023, down from 6.3 per cent in the June quarter, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

Brisbane’s inflation rate was below the national rate of 5.4 per cent.

This confirms that annual inflation in Brisbane has now moderated for four consecutive quarters.

A key contributor to the easing of Brisbane’s CPI growth has been the reduction of electricity bills.

Brisbane electricity bills dropped by 10.2 percent compared during the September quarter compared to increases of 17.2 per cent in Melbourne, 15.3 per cent in Adelaide and 11.8 per cent in Sydney.

Thanks to the 2023-24 State Budget investment of $1.483 billion in additional electricity bill support measures, every Queensland household is automatically receiving at least $550 in rebates across the year.

Around 600,000 vulnerable households are receiving a rebate of $700, in addition to the $372 rebate they already receive under the Queensland Electricity Rebate Scheme – meaning Queensland’s most vulnerable households are receiving more than $1,000 off their energy bills this year.

Around 205,000 eligible Queensland small businesses are also receiving an automatic rebate of $650 on their electricity bill in 2023-24, cutting the cost of doing business in Queensland.

Quotes attributable to the Treasurer and Minister for Trade and Investment Cameron Dick:

“We understand the cost-of-living pressures facing Queenslanders and that’s why we took action in the State Budget by delivering the largest energy rebates in the country.

“The ABS data out today proves our plan is working, with the dual benefit of reducing energy costs for Queensland families and businesses while easing inflation at the same time.

“We’re only able to provide cost-of-living support measures like our energy rebates because of Queensland’s progressive coal royalty tiers.

“It is only right that Queenslanders benefit from the mining of resources that they own, especially during times of historically high coal prices.”
