Victorian Land Tax Act 2005

Land Tax and Other Legislation (Empty Homes Levy) Amendment Bill 2022

This bill proposed an Empty Homes Levy to tackle Queensland's housing crisis by taxing vacant residential properties and undeveloped land at 5% of their capital improved value annually. Modelled on Vancouver's successful empty homes tax, it aimed to push an estimated 20,600 vacant homes back onto the rental market. This bill was discharged and did not become law.
