Privacy Act 1988 (Cwlth)
LegislationReferenced in 2 bills
Work Health and Safety and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill strengthens workplace health and safety laws by giving workers and their representatives more power to address unsafe conditions, making it easier to prosecute the most serious safety breaches, and stopping companies from insuring against safety fines. It implements recommendations from two major reviews of Queensland's work health and safety system.
Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill makes major reforms to Queensland's rental laws to strengthen tenant protections in a tight housing market. It bans rent bidding, applies the 12-month rent increase limit to properties rather than individual tenancies, caps break-lease fees, requires evidence for bond claims, and protects tenant privacy. The bill also requires property agents to complete mandatory annual training and allows local government employees to reduce their superannuation contributions.
