Child Protection (Offender Reporting and Offender Prohibition Order) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill updates Queensland's laws for monitoring convicted child sex offenders to address modern technology-based offending. It requires offenders to report their use of anonymising software, hidden vault applications and the digital identifiers of all their devices, and gives police stronger powers to inspect those devices and enter offenders' homes to do so.
Justice Legislation (Links to Terrorist Activity) Amendment Bill 2018
This bill implements a national agreement to make it harder for people with demonstrated links to terrorism to get bail or parole in Queensland. It amends four Acts to reverse the normal presumption in favour of bail for terrorism-linked defendants, create a presumption against parole for prisoners with terrorism connections, and impose stricter conditions on children with terrorism links in youth detention.
