Racing Online - Horse Racing News - Rq To Move Offices From Deagon To Cbd

Racing is investigating a move from its seaside headquarters to make way for a state-of-the-art training facility and education centre.

RQ's chief executive said investigations had been made about moving the governing body's office arm to a site nearer the Brisbane city centre.

“There are a couple of reasons. Firstly we need to be closer to government and council as well as the two major tracks,” Parnell said.

“But most importantly if we are to build a major education centre and first class training complex we need more room and we can get that by moving the office.

“There needs to be more stables on site for an expansion and that means creating more room.”

Parnell would not say exactly where RQ was looking to move but it is understood sites in the Bowen area, on the northern fringe of the CBD, have been considered.

The Commission, which covers stewards and integrity staff, is based at Breakfast Creek, near Albion Park, and also has offices in the CBD.
