LegislationReferenced in 3 bills
Economic Development and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill reforms Economic Development Queensland (EDQ) to help address Queensland's housing supply shortage. It gives EDQ expanded powers to deliver social and affordable housing, creates new 'Place Renewal Areas' for coordinated urban renewal, grants compulsory land acquisition powers, and restructures EDQ as an independent statutory body with its own board and CEO.
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. The authority will operate independently with its own board but ultimately the State guarantees to cover any financial shortfall.
Land and Other Legislation Amendment Bill (No. 2) 2023
This bill makes wide-ranging changes to how Queensland manages state land, names places, and ensures resource companies pay their local council rates. It streamlines land administration by removing duplicate assessments, makes it easier to change offensive place names and recognise First Nations names, and gives local governments stronger tools to collect rates from petroleum, geothermal, and greenhouse gas companies.
