Environmental Protection (Efficiency and Streamlining) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill streamlines environmental and resources regulation in Queensland by creating standardised codes for lower-risk activities, reducing duplicate approval processes, and extending prosecution timeframes for environmental offences. It also creates a single permit system for tourism operators working across multiple parks and forests, and improves underground water monitoring and reporting for mining-affected areas.
Police Service Administration and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2021
This bill modernises how security is provided at Queensland government buildings by merging two categories of security officers into one and giving them clearer legal powers. It repeals the outdated 1983 State Buildings Protective Security Act and moves relevant provisions into existing police legislation, better integrating Protective Services into Queensland Police Service.
