Health Legislation Amendment Bill 2026
This bill changes six Queensland health laws at once. It gives Queensland Health power to acquire land directly for new and expanded hospitals, makes a series of mental health law changes, bans pharmacy-supermarket links online, helps schools follow up on adolescent immunisations, requires hepatitis C RNA tests to be reported, and speeds up the destruction of seized illicit tobacco and vapes.
Child Protection (Offender Reporting and Offender Prohibition Order) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill updates Queensland's child protection offender registry scheme to address technology-based offending that has become more prevalent since the COVID-19 pandemic. It strengthens police monitoring powers over convicted child sex offenders, particularly their use of digital devices, anonymising software, and online platforms.
Counter-Terrorism and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2015
This bill keeps Queensland's preventative detention terrorism laws from expiring and extends police counter-terrorism powers beyond state borders. It also widens who is responsible for fire safety in buildings, protects police review commissioners from being sued, and updates Queensland laws to recognise the new federal Australian Border Force.
