22.01.2022 If you applied for a postal vote but you haven’t received your ballot papers yet, don’t panic. You can still vote! The ECQ has advised us that if you live more than 20 kilometres from a polling booth and your postal ballots have not arrived, you can now register to telephone vote instead. This will apply to people in the Barcoo and Diamantina Shire Council who had no way of knowing that a polling booth would not be provided. That meant people didn’t know they needed to apply... for a postal ballot. You, too, can now apply to vote by telephone. It is a simple two-step process. Step One: Dial 1300 912 782. You will be answered by a recorded message offering different options. Select Option One for callers wanting to register for telephone voting. You select One simply by pressing the number 1 on your phone keypad. So, Step One Dial 1300 912 782 and Select Option One. You will be put through to an ECQ officer yes, you will be talking to a live person. They will identify you on the electoral roll and check that you are eligible for a telephone vote. This applies to anyone who lives more than 20 kilometres from the nearest voting booth. It also applies to people who have suddenly had to travel interstate. When they have verified your identity and location, they will ask you for a six figure PIN number and your mobile phone number or email address. You get to choose the six digit pin number. Your mobile number or email address again you choose which one is so the ECQ can send you a text or email with your individual registration number and the six digit PIN you chose. That is the end of Step One: ring, register, receive. Step Two: When you receive this text or email from the ECQ, once again dial the same number 1300 912 782 but this time select Option 2. Once again, you will be speaking live to an ECQ officer who will go through the Gregory ballot paper and mark it according to your instructions. This will be witnessed by a second ECQ officer to ensure your instructions are being accurately followed. So, Step One Dial 1300 912 782 and Select Option One to register. Step Two With your PIN and registration handy, Dial 1300 912 782. Select Option Two and vote. If you have not received your postal vote papers yet, I encourage you to consider telephone voting. The ECQ have assured that they are setting up extra people to handle an increased volume of telephone voting because they are receiving so many calls from people across Queensland whose postal ballot papers have not arrived. That number again is 1300 912 782. Please vote Queensland needs you to have your say where it counts.

03.01.2022 Council are holding consultation forums in Stonehenge, Jundah and Windorah. These community consultation forums are a valuable opportunity for us to hear directly from our community on the issues that matter most to them. Mayor O’Neil is making this appeal because she believes it is important that Council hear from as many different voices as possible. Attendance at these forums is often by a dedicated core of people. While the contributions of regular attendees are highly v...alued, Mayor O’Neil would like to encourage more of our community to come forward and engage with us directly. The more we can attract a diverse and varied cross-section of our community to work with, the better the outcomes will be that we achieve on your behalf. Council really hope you join us at the Community Consultation Forums, and look forward to learning what’s important to you, as we navigate our way towards a positive future for our Shire.
