Statement on Dugald River mine incident

My thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends and colleagues of Trevor Davis and Dylan Langridge who have passed away.

This is an absolute tragedy.

It should never have happened.

The loss of a life in any workplace at any time is not acceptable. Families should be able to expect that when their loved ones depart for work that they return safely.

Investigators from Resources Safety and Health Queensland are already on site.

I expect a thorough investigation into how this happened.
