Submission from QPP to the HEC Parliamentary Committee
The Queensland Peoples’ Protest (QPP) is an apolitical political organisation organised under the Queensland-based Freedom and Truth Australia (FTA) association. It has more than 10,000 followers and its members have been peacefully protesting at least once a week across Queensland since March 2022. The objectives of QPP are to ensure human rights are respected in legislation and directives from Australian governments especially in times of public health “states of emergency”. QPP has significant concerns that the proposed amendments to the Public Health Act will entrench unjustifiable limitations on human rights in Queensland for at least another year. The limitation on our human rights is unacceptable to the membership of QPP because these limitations are based on the false assertion from the Qld Government that Covid-19 is a disease so significant that it warrants complete abrogation of human rights, and that the unsafe and experimental Covid-19 MRNA injections are in any way effective. Rather than making limitations on human rights semi-permanent in Queensland it would be strongly preferable in QPP’s view to allow for natural immunity, freedom of treatment from medical professionals, and informed consent to once again become the standard-of-care in how public health emergencies are dealt with in a rational democracy.
Specifically, QPP has the following concerns about the proposed legislation:
(https://www.parliament.qld.gov.au/Work-of-Committees/Committees/Committee-Details?cid=169&id=4196 )
1. The Chief Health Officer (CHO) will be allowed to retain the power of giving ‘directions’ for another year (to October 2023) and these will limit human rights. Specifically, the CHO will be able to require the 7-day isolation of persons who allegedly[1]have COVID-19 and quarantine their symptomatic close contacts; require masks to be carried or worn in specified settings; and require workers in vulnerable and high-risk settings to be vaccinated. These proposed semi-permanent directions are argued by the Qld Government to be the most effective way to protect the health system from the uncontrolled and unmanageable spread of COVID-19. QPP suggests that the outcomes obtained from the Qld Government trying to manage the pandemic since January 29th 2020 show that such measures have failed and as of today the 15th September 2022, after 961 days of a State of Emergency we are still having 1000 cases a day of Covid-19. Clearly the Government’s response to the pandemic has been a failure, and alternative and less-restrictive means of managing this situation should be preferred, if not at least tried. The experience of other countries around the world show excellent results in managing the outbreak without compromising individual liberty.
2. The CHO directions include a direction that may require employers to take reasonable steps to monitor and enforce compliance with vaccine requirements for their workers. Employers will be able to demand private medical information specifically requiring workers to produce documentation of their vaccination status, and requiring operators of workplaces to keep a record of the vaccination status of each worker. This will infringe on people’s right to medical privacy and provide further coercive pressure on workers to give up their right to informed consent for the sake of retaining their employment or good-standing therein. The unfair pressure placed on Qld citizens having to choose between their jobs and livelihoods; and their health should not be allowed to continue for another year.
