Lock the Gate Alliance says the Federal Government has thrown Central Queenslanders under a bus, and put scarce water resources at risk, following news they have rushed through approval for Adani’s final water management plan.

A tribunal of international legal experts has delivered a scathing report on fracking, arguing the unconventional gas and oil drilling method is a human rights violation.

Lock the Gate Alliance has labelled Adani’s latest round of regional advertising targeting the Queensland Government as “more misguided propaganda”.

Northern Territory residents are outraged after the Federal Government threw $8.4 million at the fracking industry while allowing crucial frontline services to whither from a lack of investment.

The last of three fracking licences that covered the Wide Bay-Burnett has expired and will not be renewed by owner Blue Energy.
