Member for Burnett Stephen Bennett has thrown his support in the fight against bullying.

Mr Bennett said he was happy to work with the current Palaszczuk Government and LNP colleagues to stamp out bullying.

“This issue is above politics and we must all work together to protect our kids,” he said.

“As a father and a grandfather, I know the harm that bullying can do to kids.

“It’s a serious issue – bullying is responsible for taking precious young lives.”

Mr Bennett said he and the LNP team stands ready to support measures that tackle all forms of bullying in the state and across the nation.
