Rockhampton Regional Council has today unanimously resolved that as of 31st March 2017 it will cease all funding to Capricorn Enterprise.
Rockhampton Region Mayor Margaret Strelow said Council will assume a greater role in tourism, approving the appointment of a dedicated tourism specialist in the Rockhampton Region.
“There are some issues to be resolved as we tidy up our arrangements with Capricorn Enterprise and I expect Capricorn Enterprise will work with our officers in good faith to ensure a smooth transition,” Margaret Strelow said.
“We respect Capricorn Enterprise’s continuing role as a Regional Tourism Organisation with broader responsibilities promoting the greater region.”
