Professor Allan Dale was recently appointed the Deputy Chair of the Premier’s Queensland Plan Ambassadors Council by Premier Palaszczuk. The Deputy Chairperson works closely with the Chairperson of the Council, the Honourable Tony McGrady AM, to coordinate ambassador activities and events. The Council meets regularly in various locations.
Allan Dale said that “The Queensland Plan is a legislated document that sets out a long term vision for the future of the state, working across shorter term electoral cycles. The Ambassador’s Council keeps a strong link between the Government of the day and the Queensland community about progress towards the implementation of the plan.”
The Plan is based on the belief that every Queenslander should have a say in the future of the state. The community-based vision of for the Plan emerged from the largest statewide community engagement activity of its kind ever undertaken in Queensland, with more than 80 000 people contributing to the process. The results within the Plan have articulated community aspirations for the next 30 years, setting a roadmap for growth and prosperity.

We acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants of this country and pay our respects to the Traditional Owners and Elders, past and present, of the land on which we stand today, the Djabugay (pronounced Jap-ur-kai), Yirrganydji (pronounced Irri-kan-dji) and the Gimuy Yidinji (pronounced Goom-eye Yidinji) people (and all other country/people joining us today).
In the spirit of reconciliation, we also acknowledge the valuable contribution that Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to make to James Cook University and the broader community.
