Building Queensland Act 2015
LegislationReferenced in 3 bills
Debt Reduction and Savings Bill 2021
This bill implements the Queensland Government's debt reduction and savings plan by restructuring government agencies and transferring some functions to the private sector or other departments. It transfers the land titles registry to a new private operator, abolishes Building Queensland, the Queensland Productivity Commission, and the Public Safety Business Agency, and changes how the National Injury Insurance Scheme Agency is governed.
Economic Development and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill makes wide-ranging improvements to Queensland's economic development and planning legislation. It streamlines how Priority Development Areas are managed, expands the Queensland Reconstruction Authority's role to include disaster prevention and resilience (not just recovery), and makes administrative improvements to infrastructure planning and the planning courts.
Local Government (Councillor Complaints) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill overhauls the system for handling complaints about councillor conduct in Queensland. It creates an Independent Assessor to investigate complaints, replacing the previous system where council CEOs had conflicts of interest in assessing complaints against their own councillors. A new Councillor Conduct Tribunal will hear serious misconduct matters, with appeal rights to QCAT.
