Environmental Protection (Efficiency and Streamlining) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill streamlines environmental and resources regulation in Queensland by creating standardised codes for lower-risk activities, reducing duplicate approval processes, and extending prosecution timeframes for environmental offences. It also creates a single permit system for tourism operators working across multiple parks and forests, and improves underground water monitoring and reporting for mining-affected areas.
Mineral and Energy Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill reforms how Queensland manages the interaction between its resources industry and agricultural landholders. It creates a new framework to protect farmers from coal seam gas subsidence, expands dispute resolution services, modernises the mining rehabilitation insurance scheme, and streamlines regulatory processes across multiple resources laws.
