A pause to homeless camp demolitions in City of Moreton Bay

A small, albeit temporary, win for rough sleepers in the City of Moreton Bay.

In short:

The City of Moreton Bay has agreed not to demolish homeless camps for the time being after a Supreme Court challenge in Brisbane. Lawyers for people sleeping rough in a Kallangur bush reserve say the destruction of property would constitute a human rights violation.

What’s next?

The matter will return to court later this month, though advocates for the homeless people are seeking a longer extension to the pause.
