Disability Services (Restrictive Practices) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill reforms Queensland's system for authorising restrictive practices used with people with disability. It replaces decisions by guardians and tribunals with a new Senior Practitioner who makes all authorisation decisions based on clinical evidence and behaviour support plans, aiming to reduce and eventually eliminate the use of restraint, seclusion and containment.

Youth Justice and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill reforms Queensland's youth justice system to keep more children out of detention while awaiting trial. It creates a clear presumption that children should be released on bail, bans electronic tracking devices for young people, and requires police to consider alternatives to arrest when children breach bail conditions.
