Health and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill amends nine health-related Acts to improve how Queensland's health system operates. It strengthens wellbeing protections for health workers, modernises cancer data collection, enables electronic recording of mental health tribunal proceedings, and streamlines several administrative processes including organ donation consent and school vision screening.
Child Protection (Offender Reporting and Offender Prohibition Order) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill updates Queensland's monitoring system for convicted child sex offenders living in the community. It requires offenders to report their use of anonymising software, hidden applications and digital device details, while giving police stronger powers to inspect devices and track offenders' online activities.
Disability Services and Other Legislation (Worker Screening) Amendment Bill 2018
This bill ensures all disability service workers in Queensland undergo proper criminal history screening before providing services. It closes a gap by clarifying that self-employed workers (sole traders) must hold a yellow card, and enables Queensland to share criminal history information with other states as the NDIS rolls out nationally.
Tobacco and Other Smoking Products (Dismantling Illegal Trade) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill dramatically strengthens Queensland's enforcement powers against illegal tobacco and nicotine vape sales. It extends business closure periods from 72 hours to 3 months, creates new criminal and civil penalties for landlords who allow illegal sales on their premises, and enables undercover operations to catch offenders.
Police Powers and Responsibilities and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2021
This bill is a package of law and order reforms covering knife crime, parole restrictions for the worst murderers, stronger 'No Body, No Parole' laws, protection for police animals, and updated child sex offender monitoring. It aims to improve public safety while reducing trauma for victims' families through the parole process.
