LegislationReferenced in 7 bills
Casino Control and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill overhauls Queensland's casino and gambling regulation following major integrity failures found at casinos in other states. It introduces stronger enforcement powers for casino operators including fines up to $50 million, enables cashless gambling across all forms of gambling, creates a new simulated events wagering product, and simplifies fundraising rules for national charities.
Criminal Code (Consent and Mistake of Fact) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill makes changes across several unrelated areas of Queensland law. It clarifies sexual consent provisions in the Criminal Code following a Queensland Law Reform Commission review, bans online wagering sign-up inducements, strengthens alcohol-fuelled violence measures including longer police banning notices and tighter ID scanning, and ensures victims of solicitor dishonesty receive full compensation from the Legal Practitioners' Fidelity Guarantee Fund.
Royalty Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill overhauls how Queensland charges royalties on petroleum production, replacing the old wellhead value method with a simpler volume-based model from 1 October 2020. It also brings mineral and petroleum royalty administration under the Taxation Administration Act 2001, creating a consistent framework with state taxes.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill implements several 2023-24 State Budget revenue measures and makes technical amendments to Queensland tax legislation. It creates tax concessions to encourage build-to-rent housing developments with affordable housing, simplifies the land tax home exemption, extends payroll tax relief for regional employers and apprentice wages, and closes off common law tax refund claims.
Betting Tax Bill 2018
This bill introduces a 15% point-of-consumption betting tax on the net wagering revenue that betting operators earn from customers located in Queensland. It replaces the old wagering tax (which was based on where the operator was located) and brings Queensland into line with similar taxes in South Australia and Victoria.
Betting Tax and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill increases Queensland's betting tax from 15 to 20 per cent by adding a 5 per cent racing levy, and directs 80 per cent of that revenue to Racing Queensland to fund the racing industry. It also makes administrative changes to support the new mental health levy on large employers.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill implements 2019-20 Queensland Budget revenue measures across land tax, payroll tax, and petroleum royalties. It raises the payroll tax exemption threshold to help smaller businesses, introduces a higher payroll tax rate for large employers, increases land tax on large corporate landholdings and foreign owners, lifts the petroleum royalty rate, and provides a payroll tax discount for regional employers.
