Queensland Integrity Commissioner

Public-Private Partnership (Transparency and Accountability) Bill 2024
This bill would have required the Queensland Government to be more open about Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) used to deliver major infrastructure. It responded to Queensland Audit Office findings that the public has limited visibility into whether these deals represent value for money, and to the Coaldrake review's recommendations about government transparency. The bill lapsed at the end of the 57th Parliament and did not become law.
Integrity and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill strengthens Queensland's integrity and anti-corruption framework by implementing recommendations from Professor Peter Coaldrake's review of public sector culture and the Yearbury review of the Integrity Commissioner. It overhauls lobbying regulation, boosts the independence of five core integrity bodies, and extends the Ombudsman's reach to cover non-government organisations delivering public services.
Integrity and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill strengthens the independence of Queensland's key integrity bodies — the Auditor-General, the Integrity Commissioner, and the Ombudsman — following the Coaldrake Report's review of culture and accountability in the public sector. It makes the Auditor-General an officer of Parliament, creates a formal Office of the Integrity Commissioner, and introduces criminal penalties for unregistered lobbying.
