Corrective Services (Emerging Technologies and Security) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill modernises Queensland's corrective services and youth detention laws to address emerging security threats and improve emergency preparedness. It creates new criminal offences for flying drones over prisons and youth detention centres, authorises x-ray body scanners and surveillance devices, overhauls the emergency declaration framework to cover disasters and pandemics, and strengthens information sharing between corrective services and partner agencies.
Health and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2021
This bill makes broad amendments across Queensland's health legislation, with the most significant changes strengthening rights and protections for mental health patients. It reforms electroconvulsive therapy approval processes, adopts a stronger rights-based approach for patient transfers, improves support for victims of unlawful acts, and expands allied health professionals' access to patient information. It also allows health students to assist in pregnancy terminations and clarifies that human milk is not regulated as human tissue.
