South-East Queensland Water (Distribution and Retail Restructuring) Act 2009
LegislationReferenced in 6 bills
Mineral and Energy Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill strengthens workplace safety in Queensland's resources sector by introducing industrial manslaughter offences, while also improving mine rehabilitation oversight, streamlining regulatory processes, and protecting energy and water consumers.
Natural Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill makes sweeping changes across Queensland's natural resources, land, water and energy laws. It streamlines exploration permit processes with 15-year caps and more flexible work programs, creates a new dispute resolution system for state land subleases, strengthens water compliance enforcement, and establishes CleanCo as a government clean energy company to boost electricity market competition.
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.
Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2021
This bill makes technical fixes to mining and petroleum laws to protect existing resource tenures from administrative errors, repeals the never-implemented Personalised Transport Ombudsman scheme, and gives South East Queensland water distributors new powers to enforce water restrictions while protecting cyber security information from public disclosure.
Planning and Other Legislation (Make Developers Pay) Amendment Bill 2023
This bill would have removed state-imposed caps on infrastructure charges that local governments can levy on property developers. It lapsed at the end of the 57th Parliament and did not become law. The bill was introduced by a Greens MP and aimed to give councils more flexibility to charge developers for the true cost of providing infrastructure like parks, footpaths, and flood mitigation.
Water Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill strengthens how Queensland measures and monitors non-urban water use, particularly in the Murray-Darling Basin. It requires water entitlement holders to use approved measurement devices or develop certified measurement plans, and enables telemetry for real-time compliance monitoring. The bill also makes various administrative improvements to water authority governance and water supply regulation.
