Public Records Bill 2023
This bill replaces Queensland's 20-year-old public records law to bring it into the digital age. It modernises how government records are defined, managed, and accessed, while formally recognising the importance of public records for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and creating new advisory bodies to ensure their interests are considered.
