Summary Offences and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill creates new criminal offences for protesters who use 'dangerous attachment devices' - specialised equipment like steel tubes, concrete barrels, and tripods designed to make it difficult and dangerous for police to remove them.

Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Amendment Bill 2024
This bill establishes the Games Venue and Legacy Delivery Authority to ensure Queensland can deliver venues, villages, and infrastructure for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games on time and on budget.

Tow Truck and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill reforms three distinct areas: it regulates tow truck operators who remove vehicles from private property (like shopping centres), ensures 17-year-old drivers remain accountable for serious driving offences, and reduces administration fees for motorists with multiple unpaid tolls. The private property towing reforms respond to community complaints about exploitative practices.

Transport Legislation (Road Safety and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill strengthens Queensland's approach to road safety by significantly reforming drink driving laws and improving speed camera enforcement.

The bill also enables point-to-point speed cameras on roads with variable speed limits and improves marine pollution cost recovery processes.
Transport and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
