Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill bundles changes across five unrelated policy areas: restructuring the Brisbane 2032 Olympics governance authority, repealing Queensland's Path to Treaty Act to end the First Nations Treaty Institute and Truth-telling Inquiry, winding back workplace health and safety entry powers for union officials, clarifying planning powers for State Facilitated Development declarations, and strengthening the independence of the Public Sector Commissioner.
Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Bill 2021
This bill establishes the Brisbane Organising Committee for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games as an independent statutory body responsible for planning, organising and delivering the Games. It creates a governance framework with a board of directors representing all three levels of government, the Australian Olympic Committee and Paralympics Australia, and sets out the committee's functions, financial accountability requirements and eventual dissolution.
Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Amendment Bill 2024
This bill establishes the Games Venue and Legacy Delivery Authority, a new statutory body to build and deliver venues, monitor athlete villages, and coordinate government responsibilities for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The authority operates at arms-length from government with an independent board, but the State guarantees any financial shortfall when it is wound up after the Games.
