Transport Legislation (Disability Parking and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2019
This bill extends Queensland's Disability Parking Permit Scheme to include people who are legally blind, and doubles the fine for misusing disability parking bays from $266 to $533. It also makes technical updates to rail safety definitions to align with national law.
Housing Legislation Amendment Bill 2021
This bill reforms Queensland's rental laws to give tenants stronger protections and greater security. It ends no-grounds evictions, introduces minimum housing standards for all rental properties, strengthens protections for people experiencing domestic and family violence, creates a framework for renting with pets, and shields tenants from retaliatory action by landlords. It also exempts resident-operated freehold retirement villages from mandatory buyback obligations.
State Penalties Enforcement (Modernisation) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill modernises Queensland's fines enforcement system and makes changes across several unrelated policy areas. It centralises the handling of camera-detected and tolling fines under a single agency (SPER within the Queensland Revenue Office), extends land tax concessions to Special Disability Trusts, reforms how the Residential Tenancies Authority is funded, and updates confidentiality rules for state penalties and taxation officials.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill implements several revenue measures from the 2023-24 Queensland State Budget and makes technical changes to state tax laws. It introduces tax concessions to encourage large-scale build-to-rent housing with affordable housing components, extends payroll tax relief for regional businesses and employers of apprentices, simplifies land tax for homeowners, and clarifies that state tax refunds can only be obtained through the statutory process.
