COVID-19 Emergency Response and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill extends Queensland's COVID-19 emergency response legislation from 31 December 2020 to 30 April 2021, keeping temporary measures in place across tenancy, courts, health and other areas. It also makes standalone reforms to support artisan distillers, reform local government vacancy processes, and enable COVID-safe by-elections.
Land Valuation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill updates Queensland's land valuation system to keep pace with an increasingly complex property market. It gives the valuer-general new powers to issue binding guidelines, streamlines the objection process so all landowners are treated equally regardless of property value, and gives farmers more choice over how their land is valued.
Tow Truck and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill regulates the tow truck industry's removal of vehicles from private property, reinstates driving offence accountability for 17-year-olds, and simplifies toll road demand notices. It was prompted by an independent investigation into predatory towing practices at private car parks across Queensland.
Small Business Commissioner Bill 2021
This bill permanently establishes a Queensland Small Business Commissioner to provide advice, support, and dispute resolution services for small businesses. It replaces the temporary commissioner role created during the COVID-19 pandemic with a permanent statutory office, making Queensland consistent with every other mainland state.
