Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart has been appointed to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee.

Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner said he was delighted to advise President Andrew Liveris that Mayor Stewart had secured the support of Council of Mayors (SEQ) to represent South East Queensland councils on the organising committee. 

“I have been in touch with Mr Liveris who is excited to welcome the Mayor and looks forward to working with her into the future,” Cr Schrinner said. 

“Regional collaboration is a team sport and this is a great example of the Councils who worked together to secure the Games continuing to work together as a team in the interest of our region and its communities. 

“SEQ Councils will play an important role during the Games, and I’m looking forward to working with Mayor Stewart to ensure they are an active part of the region’s 2032 journey.” 

Mayor Stewart said it was a privilege to be selected to represent her fellow Mayors on the Brisbane 2032 Organising Committee. 

“The region’s Mayors pursued the Games as the catalyst to bring forward the infrastructure and transport needed to support our region’s record growth. Ensuring we deliver on this commitment to our communities will continue to be a priority for us.

“Brisbane 2032 provides a once in a lifetime opportunity to positively transform South East Queensland and I look forward to continuing to work with my fellow Mayors to ensure our communities have a voice," Mayor Stewart said.
