Housing Legislation (Building Better Futures) Amendment Act 2017
LegislationReferenced in 2 bills
Housing Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill supports two housing reforms: enabling the Homes for Homes charitable donation scheme to operate in Queensland, and improving financial transparency in retirement villages. Homes for Homes allows property owners to voluntarily donate a small percentage of their sale price to fund social housing, while the retirement village changes give residents better access to financial information about how their fees are spent.
Health and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill reforms several health-related regulatory frameworks in Queensland. It repeals the state's medicinal cannabis approval system (which duplicated Commonwealth processes), establishes a register to track occupational dust lung diseases like coal workers' pneumoconiosis, empowers health authorities to require public notices about pollution events, and ensures freehold retirement village residents receive timely payment when they leave.
