Betting Tax Act 2018
LegislationReferenced in 6 bills
Criminal Code (Consent and Mistake of Fact) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill makes changes across several unrelated areas of law. Most significantly, it clarifies consent laws for sexual offences by putting existing case law into the Criminal Code, making it clearer that silence is not consent and that voluntary intoxication is no excuse. It also extends police banning notices, bans predatory wagering marketing, and ensures victims of solicitor fraud receive full compensation.
Royalty Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill changes how Queensland calculates petroleum royalties and modernises royalty administration for both petroleum and minerals. From 1 October 2020, petroleum royalty is based on production volume rather than the previous complex 'wellhead value' method, providing greater certainty for the coal seam gas and LNG industry.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill implements 2023-24 State Budget revenue measures affecting land tax, stamp duty, and payroll tax. It creates major tax concessions for build-to-rent housing developments that include affordable housing, extends payroll tax relief for regional employers and apprentice wages, and simplifies land tax administration for homeowners.
Betting Tax Bill 2018
This bill introduces a 15% point-of-consumption betting tax on the net wagering revenue of betting operators from bets made by customers in Queensland. It replaces the old point-of-supply tax system, ensuring that Queensland collects tax revenue based on where punters are located when they bet, rather than where the betting company is licensed. This brings Queensland into line with South Australia and Victoria.
Betting Tax and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill reforms Queensland racing industry funding by increasing betting tax to 20% and guaranteeing that 80% of revenue flows to Racing Queensland, with minimum funding for country racing. It also establishes administrative systems for the mental health levy on large employers.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill implements the 2019-20 Budget revenue measures, making significant changes to land tax, payroll tax, and petroleum royalties. It raises taxes on large landholders and foreign property owners while providing relief for small businesses, regional employers, and those who hire apprentices.
