RURAL ACTION MOVEMENT
(QUEENSLAND)
MISSION
STATEMENT
The
Rural
Action Movement (Queensland)
is committed to bringing about:
 | The
removal of World Parity Pricing so as to ensure that the costs of fuels
are reflective of Australian costs of production and, with equal fuel prices Australia wide. |
| The
establishment of a Development Bank with low interest rates for rural,
regional and urban customers. |
| Repeal
the International Tax (Agreement) Act 1953, which will then ensure that
multinational corporations pay tax at the same rate as Australian
residents and Australian companies. |
| Rescind
the National Competition Policy that has imposed a devastating effect on
Australians by the de-regulation of industries. |
| Real
Taxation Reform, by investigating alternative forms of Taxation Systems
including a Financial Transaction Tax (FTT). |
| The
reversal of the centralisation policies of past Governments |
| Realistic
tax incentives to stimulate business to relocate part of their operations
to rural locations |
| Periods
of tax exemptions for businesses relocating to rural locations thus
increasing rural populations |
| The
implementation of prices that reflect the real cost of production |
| The implementation of cost reduction of farm supplies |
The
Rural
Action Movement (Queensland)
is determined to achieve:
| The
formation of a Development Bank that will provide long-term venture
capital for small
businesses, primary and secondary producers at low interest rates | ||||
| Implementation
of a National infrastructure program to include:
| ||||
| Implementation
of anti-trusts to contain the domination of the retail trade by the major
chain stores | ||||
| Restoration
of an orderly market support scheme to give farmers guaranteed access to
domestic markets | ||||
| Full financial support for industries affected by Government policy |
Small business owner/operators, farmers, growers and ordinary Australians are already suffering as a result of…

It
is the responsibility of ALL Australians, regardless of political persuasion,
religious belief or geographical location, to take control of the influences
that affect their everyday lives.
There
must be...
| NO
more deregulation |
| NO
more forced closures of Queensland small, medium or large
businesses; |
| NO
more corporatisation or privatisation of Queensland’s public assets, and |
| NO
more treating Queenslanders with contempt. |
It
is absolutely essential that our Queensland farming families are provided with
whatever protection is necessary, to ensure the viability of Queensland's rural
economy and the sustainability of Queensland's primary and secondary producers.
Concerned
Queenslanders formed the Rural
Action Movement (Queensland)
in an effort to provide much sought after
information and assistance not currently being provided, and to UNITE
under one vigorous group, regardless of geographical location, whether primary
or secondary industry, small business owner-operator, employer, employee or just
‘had a gutful’.
The Rural Action Movement (Queensland) is a registered non-profit, non political party aligned, primary producer support group, which has no affiliation or association with any self-interest minority groups, and, whose solitary objective is to coordinate a united, independent political lobby group, to represent Queenslanders.
