COVID-19 takeaway liquor authorities

Justice and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2021

This bill makes permanent several temporary COVID-19 measures in Queensland's justice system. It modernises document signing by allowing electronic signatures and video link witnessing for affidavits, statutory declarations, deeds and powers of attorney. It also improves access to domestic violence protection orders, lets restaurants permanently sell takeaway wine with meals, extends commercial lease protections, and allows nurse practitioners to certify advance health directives.
