Queensland Resources Industry Development Plan (QRIDP)
Program / SchemeReferenced in 2 bills
Mineral and Energy Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill reforms Queensland's framework for managing the coexistence of resource, renewable energy, and agricultural industries. It introduces a major new system for managing coal seam gas induced land subsidence, expands the roles of key coexistence institutions, streamlines regulatory processes across resources legislation, and modernises the Financial Provisioning Scheme for mining rehabilitation.
Coal Mining Safety and Health and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill amends coal mining safety laws and several resources Acts. It creates practical exceptions to the requirement that safety-critical positions at coal mines be filled by direct employees of the mine operator, and it supports Queensland's critical minerals sector by allowing rent deferrals for new mining leases. It also strengthens enforcement powers against non-compliant resource companies.
