Statement From Minister For Environment And Tourism

Minister for the Environment and Tourism and Minister for Science and Innovation The Honourable Andrew Powell

This tragedy has deeply affected Queenslanders and touched the hearts of people around the world.

I have been kept briefed by my Department throughout this incident. The Department has made the decision that all dingoes involved in the incident will be removed and humanely euthanised.

This is a tough decision but I believe it’s the right call in the public interest.
