I have received confirmation from Environment Minster Greg Hunt’s office this morning, that we have a stay of execution on job losses at our Bureau of Meteorology field office.I went into bat for these jobs after it was announced with just a day's notice to my office, that jobs would go from BOM field offices up and down the Queensland coast.I have now been assured that BOM field staff duties of taking meteorological observations and maintaining observing equipment will continue for a further 12 months, which takes us through to March 2017.
