Arts (Statutory Bodies) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024

This bill would have strengthened First Nations recognition across Queensland's five major arts institutions - the Art Gallery, Museum, State Library, QPAC, and Queensland Theatre. It required each board to include at least two Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander members and created dedicated First Nations Committees to guide cultural governance. The bill lapsed and did not become law.
