Statement on Lockhart River incident from Housing and Public Works Minister Mick de Brenni

This is a devastating event for the QBuild family and the Queensland Government workforce. 

Five people went to work and they never came home - we all mourn the loss of our colleagues and friends. 

QBuild staff and tradies are always there when Queenslanders need them most and their dedication to serving our community will not be forgotten.

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by this tragedy.
