Queensland Building and Construction Commission and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill modernises the Queensland Building and Construction Commission by removing the requirement for physical licence cards and enabling digital alternatives. It also streamlines workplace safety reporting so that building industry licensees only need to notify one regulator of safety incidents, rather than reporting the same incident to both the QBCC and workplace safety regulators.
