Subscriber only THE Queensland Government has hit fast-forward on a $26.4m emergency department expansion at Cairns Hospital but the LNP s health crisis roadshow scheduled for Thursday has been cancelled. Opposition Leader David Crisafulli was due in Cairns to host a town hall forum at the Cairns Showground from 9.30am after a packed house at the Sunshine Coast s own event on Wednesday. However, due to the recent Covid-19 case detected in the Sunshine Coast, Mr Crisafulli confirmed his trip to the Far North had been postponed. Unfortunately this event will be postponed after the chief health officer advised a Covid positive case visited Caloundra this week.
