OrganisationReferenced in 2 bills
Crime and Corruption and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill reforms the Crime and Corruption Commission (CCC) following several review reports that found problems with the agency's powers, culture and oversight. It streamlines the CCC's investigation powers, introduces journalist shield laws for CCC proceedings, requires the Director of Public Prosecutions to review corruption charges before they are laid, and sets a fixed seven-year non-renewable term for CCC commissioners.
Public Sector Bill 2022
This bill replaces the Public Service Act 2008 with a new Public Sector Act that creates a unified employment framework for the entire Queensland public sector. It implements recommendations from two independent reviews — the Bridgman Review into public sector employment laws and the Coaldrake Report on public sector culture and accountability — to make the public sector fairer, more diverse and better governed.
