Appropriation (Parliament) Bill 2025
This bill authorises funding for the Queensland Parliament for the 2025-26 financial year. It allocates $146.5 million to the Legislative Assembly and parliamentary service for their operations, and provides roughly half that amount as interim supply for 2026-27 to bridge the gap until next year's budget.
Appropriation (Parliament) Bill 2022
This bill allocates $146.7 million to fund the Queensland Parliament for the 2022-23 financial year. It also provides $73.4 million in interim funding for 2023-24 so Parliament can keep operating until the next annual budget is passed.

This bill formally authorises $1,795,000 in supplementary funding for the Queensland Parliament to cover unforeseen expenditure during the 2020-21 financial year. Under Queensland's Constitution, all government spending from the Consolidated Fund must be approved by Parliament, so this bill provides that approval for spending that has already occurred.

Transport Affordability Amendment Bill 2026
This bill introduces two transport affordability measures for Queenslanders.
