LegislationReferenced in 3 bills
Criminal Code (Non-consensual Sharing of Intimate Images) Amendment Bill 2018
This bill creates new criminal offences for sharing intimate images without consent, commonly known as 'revenge porn'. It criminalises both the actual distribution of intimate images and threats to distribute them, with penalties of up to 3 years imprisonment. Courts can also order offenders to remove or delete the images.
Heavy Vehicle National Law Amendment Bill 2019
This bill amends Queensland's heavy vehicle national law to implement reforms agreed by Australian transport ministers. It streamlines permit administration, consolidates vehicle defect notice rules, allows certain semitrailers to operate at 4.6 metres high without individual permits, and formally authorises the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator to provide compliance advice and education to the transport industry.
Health Practitioner Regulation National Law and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill makes the second major stage of reforms to Australia's national law governing the registration and regulation of health practitioners across 16 professions. It strengthens protections for patients by giving regulators new powers to act against dangerous practitioners, improves information sharing between regulators and employers, and introduces a new objective for cultural safety for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples.
