Natural Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill makes a broad range of amendments across the Natural Resources, Mines and Energy portfolio. It caps mining exploration permits at 15 years, strengthens rural water compliance with higher penalties, simplifies Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land processes, modernises water authority board governance to improve gender balance, and supports the establishment of CleanCo as a new clean energy electricity generator.
Land Valuation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill updates Queensland's land valuation system to keep pace with an increasingly complex property market. It gives the valuer-general new powers to issue binding guidelines, streamlines the objection process so all landowners are treated equally regardless of property value, and gives farmers more choice over how their land is valued.
