Child Death Review Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill overhauls how Queensland reviews the deaths of children known to child protection services. It requires multiple government agencies (not just Child Safety) to conduct reviews when a vulnerable child dies, and creates a new independent Child Death Review Board to identify systemic problems and publicly report on what needs to change.
