Chairperson of the Public Trustee Advisory and Monitoring Board

Public Trustee (Advisory and Monitoring Board) Amendment Bill 2021

This bill creates an independent advisory and monitoring board to oversee the Public Trustee of Queensland. It responds to the Public Advocate's 2021 report which found the Public Trustee needed greater transparency and accountability in how it manages the financial affairs of vulnerable Queenslanders, particularly people with impaired decision-making capacity.
