There is a risk the 3 year legal aid support for veterans will not be renewed by the Queensland Government

Urgency:

Medium

Veteran Community Needs Affected:

Respect and Recognition, Good Mental Health

Issue Details

The Queensland Government has been running a trial for veterans and families for three years and it is due to end on 30 Jun 2024. No one seems to know whether it is to be extended or permanently established or discontinuted.

Likely Cause of the Issue

The Queensland Government has not had sufficient feedback from the veteran community and ESOs  about the significant value to veterans of the service. 

Possible Solution

Collectively write to the Queensland Government (3 local representatives) and seek its permanency. Build a campaign for the election.

Who is likely to be responsible to fix this?

Qld Govt

All veterans and their families connected with The Oasis Townsville
acknowledge and pay respect
to the past, present and emerging Traditional Custodians and Elders of this nation and also acknowledge those Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who serve and have served in the Australian Defence Force.
