The Sunshine Coast Council has come under some scrutiny for cancelling its midnight fireworks display.

The Council has said safety concerns, crime and costs are the reasons for their decision.

Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, 'it was a resolution of Council, so it is a full Council decision.'

'I can't just turn around and with the swipe of a pen overturn that. And I am standing up and saying, this is not something I personally am happy about and let's see if we can find a way forward,' she said.

Legislation passing today will allow the Federal Government to increase their funding to public schools beyond the 20% it currently offers.

Acting President of the Queensland Teachers Union Leah Olsson told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, 'on a macro level, you're talking about $1.4 billion across Australia per year to fully fund State schools.'

'Fully funding and resourcing our State schools will mean those other issues around occupational violence, workload, all of those things that we're all grappling across the country with right now, will have an impact,' she said.

'This funding will have an impact in resolving some of those issues.'

The Greens have finally come around to backing Labor's housing bill after opposing it for so long which has put Australia a year behind according to Senator Jacqui Lambie.

Greens Housing Spokesperson Max Chandler-Mather told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, 'part of the reason it took so long was because last year we did pass Labor's Housing Australia Future Fund in exchange for securing $3 billion of investment in social housing.'

'That is the biggest direct investment in social housing in over a decade that the Greens secured, six times what Labor originally planned to spend and we thought let's try and do that again because the housing crisis is so bad.'
