Scott Beveridge: The City2South fun run is happening on June 16. YouTube hurdling sensation Michelle Jenneke was among the celebrites at the launch this morning at Reddacliff place. Here is a look at what happened. Amy Remeikis: Nothing says Fatality Free Friday like an inflatable car. It's been set up on the Speaker's Green at parliament. Transport minister Scott Emerson and Police minister Jack Dempsey are hoping we can get through a day with no one dying on Queensland roads. Fatality Free Friday promotion at Qld parliament. Photo: Amy Remeikis Marissa Calligeros: Clive Palmer's 11am press conference came to an abrupt end today. It ended on this note: Why am I standing as a billionaire? I'm standing because I have a belief in this country ... When it comes to me I don't care if I've got nothing. I don't care if I lose everything I've got. All I care about it serving the Australian people. And last question goes to the minister for agriculture from the Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington - about what the commission of audit can do for the agricultural industry and the regions. And the answer - a lot. It's shocking that a report commissioned by the government and supported by the government can do so much for each and every portfolio. Yes, that was sarcasm. It has been a long week for everyone. And we are done for another sitting. Thanks for coming along - and the entire proceedings will be available in the Hansard record, which should be up on the parliament website around lunchtime. The member for Burdekin, Rosemary Menkens has asked her LNP colleague Scott Emerson, the transport minister to discuss the possible changes to some long distance travel options, as recommended in the commission of audit. Mr Emerson begins by speaking about the recent community cabinet in Ayr and how wonderful it was. But back to the question - nothing will be done without speaking to mayors and the local communities about what they want. The opposition has just asked tourism minister Jann Stuckey about her staff - 13 people have left in the last year, says the member for Bundamba Jo-Ann Miller (and the Gold Coast Bulletin). Ms Stuckey says she is "really pleased" to have the ability to thank some of the staff in her office - who have retired because the time was right, who have gone overseas, who have received promotions or who are working in other departments. She says this is "normal" because this government is taking an "all of government approach" which means it's important to see how other departments work. Tarnya Smith, the LNP member for Mount Ommaney, just asked tourism minister to talk about any recent forums or conferences she may have attended and the benefits for Queensland tourism. It is very handy that Ms Smith asked this question, because Ms Stuckey has just attended the Australian Tourism Exchange and Queensland had the biggest display and it was great. And next year - it will be in Cairns. "A significant win" and the first time the event has been held in the regions. Ms Stuckey thanks Ms Smith, a "strong member," for her question. Parliament's youngest MP Neil Symes has taken the floor to ask health minister Lawrence Springborg what the single most important question Jackie Trad should ask federal health minister Tanya Plibersek at a meeting in Brisbane next week. Mr Spingborg says... the federal health cuts. Shock! He also expresses surprise that Ms Trad is attending the meeting with Ms Plibersek - Ms Trad tells Mr Springborg he is welcome to join. Mr Springborg doesn't look like he'll be taking up that invitation. Lytton MP Neil Symes. Rob Katter has the floor - asking what assistance will the Queensland government give to keep the western Queensland cattle industry alive? Agriculture minister John McVeigh said he will be at a meeting tomorrow to discuss a drought relief package - but also suggested that Mr Katter should have been in parliament last night when the member for Gregory Vaughan Johnson gave a rousing speech on the issue. Mr Katter asked for a correction - he was in the house - Mr McVeigh apologised. But back to the answer - the federal government meeting tomorrow should help clarify things in terms of the relief package. A question about the Queensland Plan - an event to be held in Mackay on May 10. The government is hoping to have a "conversation" to sketch out the plan with the 400 delegates - and then a series of community engagements will help flesh it out. We'll have more on that next week. Member for Rockhampton Bill Byrne has asked police minister Jack Dempsey about the section of the Commission of Audit report that looked at outsourcing the speed camera duties of police officers. Mr Dempsey said he plans on also looking at the Keelty review into the service - but in regards to the speed cameras: "What we are doing is look at all options...obviously so we can maintain the integrity of the speed camera operations" - but also get the most efficiencies, effectively is the answer. Mr Dempsey did say he would rather have police out on the roads. Shadow treasurer Curtis Pitt has asked Mr Newman another question on possible job losses - and asked whether the one-third of workers the government expects to leave the public service in the next five years because of natural attrition - about 66,000 - will be replaced. Mr Newman has pulled out a joke he used early in the week - "How do you spell hypocrisy?" "A.L.P" answers his government - but with less gusto then they did on Tuesday. Mr Newman has spent a lot of his time speaking about the Labor government's record. Mr Pitt tries to interject to ask Mr Newman to address the question - that's not a point of order, Ms Simpson says - and now we are out of time. Independent member for Nicklin Peter Wellington has the floor. He's asked community services and child safety member Tracy Davis a question about blue cards - apparently workers at amusement parks are exempt from having to apply for one. And an actual answer - Ms Davis says rational around the excemption was that amusement parks were unlikely to be a place where children would attend without adult supervision. But she added the department was looking at streamlining Blue Card processes as part of their six month action plan and would look at the issue Mr Wellington raised. The house is silent. They could be in shock that someone actually used Question Time for what it's meant for. Natalie Bochenski: Been trying and failing to get tickets for Splendour in the Grass? That's because all 3-day, single day and camping tickets have completely sold out. Organisers admit their system did labour under unprecedented demand, but it still took less than an hour to sell out. The only tickets left now are Country Club ones, but they're also moving fast. The LNP member for Burleigh, Michael Hart, has asked if deputy premier Jeff Seeney can explain what is happening in Queensland to drive economic growth and new projects. Many, many things is the answer. Speaker Fiona Simpson has had to warn the House to stop interjecting and let members ask their questions - singling out the member for South Brisbane, Jackie Trad. Phil Lutton: Some big news from Red Hill. Broncos Justin Hodges and Josh McGuire will miss Friday night's clash with the Rabbitohs at Suncorp Stadium. Jordan Kahu gets the start in the centres for Hodges, who has a groin injury. Jarrod Wallace comes onto the bench. Deputy leader Tim Mulherin to the Premier with another question on asset sales - the government has said they wouldn't sell them, but the opposition said the government could look at selling parts of the businesses down the track. The premier thanked the "member for southeast Queensland" for his question - that's a long running joke for the government, who say that the member for Mackay was against having the Queensland Plan summit in his electorate. Mr Mulherin disputes that vehemently. We hear about it every Question Time. Mr Newman's answer is very similar to what we have heard about all week regarding anything to do with the Commission of Audit. The first question from opposition leader Annastacia Palaszczuk to the premier is on job cuts - and whether the government will rule out further losses because of the commission of audit. The premier responded by thanking the leader of the 'no position' for her question. Oh, the puns are flying early this morning! Ms Palaszczuk called on Mr Newman to answer the question, Mr Newman said he would even though the opposition was rude and kept interjecting. It's going to be one of those days. No answer though. Question Time is once again underway in state parliament. Annastacia Palaszczuk asks "Can the Premier confirm that he is just making this up as he goes along, in regards to numbers" - she's referring to the possible asset sale dollar amount that Mr Newman put on QIC, the ports and the electricity generators yesterday - see the article we published this morning. Mr Newman "The treasurer has been asked to comment on various occasions, I have been asked to comment, I was asked to comment on debt reduction and the potential for debt reduction is..." and outlines what we just said above. It depends on whether the people of Queensland give us a mandate to do what we said. City2South virtual race leaderboard. Katherine Feeney: Check out the leader board! We are hosting a virtual running booth as part of the launch of the inaugural City2South charity fun run which simulates the track on a big screen before a set of treadmills. Visuals of the 14 km course are projected onto the screen, and we can calculate the time you'd take to run it based on a short sting on the treadmill. As you can see, a few of us had a go this morning! But anyone can try it out - come down and see if you can beat me...!

This is my review of the evening, which started with a chance encounter at a service station that proved quite ironically fitting. The new ""Ministerial Advisory Council for Flood Mitigation Manuals"" will meet for the first time today. Seqwater is in the process of revising the existing flood mitigation manuals for Wivenhoe, Somerset and North Pine dams. The advisory council will help Water Minister Mark McArdle when it comes time to approve the new manuals. The council includes: Ms Rowena McNally, independent chair Mr William Weeks, director hydraulics at Department of Transport and Main Roads and registered engineer Mr Geoff Garrett, Queensland Chief Scientist Mr Carl Wulff, Chief Executive Officer of Ipswich City Council Mr Steve Roso, principal engineer at Moreton Bay Regional Council. This also happened in Parliament yesterday: The Queensland government passed 'unexplained wealth' laws to allow it to seize money from convicted criminals. The state government can now take a convicted criminal's assets, as well as those they have given away, in the six years before they were charged with a serious offence. The onus will be on the criminal to prove now they legally obtained their assets.
