This�comes as�Townsville and Rockhampton councils go head to head for a greater stake of the FIFO market generated out of the development of Adani`s mine, rail and port project.
Mrs Baker acknowledges that FIFO will always be a part of the equation for this project, with up to 10,000 jobs being created, however, she wants to ensure local workers are not locked out of local jobs.
