COMMUNITY and OTHER CONSULTATION
From 2000 to 2010 Council accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society and the Ipswich Show public holiday was held on a Thursday. During this time, Council did not receive any substantive complaints or adverse media regarding the date.
In 2011 Council accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society for the public holiday to be held on Thursday 12 May 2011. Subsequently, Council was advised by Education Queensland that State NAPLAN testing would be undertaken on that day and the request for the Thursday 12 May 2011 holiday would be denied. Following a repeal of the Council decision, a new recommendation was received for the holiday to be held on Friday 13 May 2011, it was consequently gazetted as the Ipswich Show Public Holiday 2011.
From 2012 to 2022, Council has accepted the recommendation of the Ipswich Show Society for the holiday to be held on a Friday and anecdotally this has been positively accepted by the local community and businesses.
Conclusion
Consistent with legislative requirements, Ipswich City Council has received a request from the Ipswich Show Society requesting Friday 19 May 2023 be gazetted as the Ipswich Show Public Holiday.
If Council adopts the recommendation, a formal application to the Office of Industrial Relations will be progressed.
