Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018

This bill improves the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) and strengthens consumer protections for motor vehicle buyers. It raises QCAT's jurisdictional limit for motor vehicle disputes from $25,000 to $100,000, reinstates statutory warranty coverage for older second-hand vehicles sold by dealers, and introduces conciliation as a new way to resolve disputes at QCAT.
