Bills Introduced by Hon Dan Purdie MP

Community Protection and Public Child Sex Offender Register (Daniel’s Law) Bill 2025

This bill creates Daniel's Law, a three-tiered public child sex offender register for Queensland. It allows police to publish details of missing offenders who have breached their conditions, lets residents view photos of high-risk offenders in their local area, and enables parents to check whether someone with unsupervised access to their child is a registered sex offender.

Police Powers and Responsibilities (Making Jack’s Law Permanent) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025

This bill makes Jack's Law permanent and expands police powers to use hand held scanners to detect knives and other weapons across Queensland. It removes oversight requirements for scanning in designated locations, extends scanning to all public places, and also extends counter-terrorism detention powers for 15 years, confirms Marine Rescue Queensland's charitable status, and validates historical SES member appointments.

Fighting Antisemitism and Keeping Guns out of the Hands of Terrorists and Criminals Amendment Bill 2026

This bill responds to the December 2025 Bondi Beach terrorist attack by strengthening laws against antisemitism and hate crimes, and significantly tightening firearms controls in Queensland. It introduces new offences for hate expressions and intimidation near places of worship, dramatically increases penalties for weapons offences, bans 3D-printed firearm blueprints, restricts weapons licences to Australian citizens, and expands police powers to disrupt criminal activity.
