It also introduces a fee unit model for regulatory fees, requires government agencies to publish online instead of in print, and makes safety improvements to tattoo ink regulation.
Economic Development and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill makes wide-ranging changes to Queensland's planning, development and disaster management laws. It streamlines how priority development areas are managed, updates Building Queensland's infrastructure assessment thresholds, expands the Queensland Reconstruction Authority's role to cover all natural disasters rather than just floods, and improves various planning processes.
Local Government (Councillor Complaints) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill reforms how complaints about local government councillors are handled in Queensland. It creates an Independent Assessor to investigate complaints instead of council CEOs, establishes a Councillor Conduct Tribunal for misconduct hearings, and introduces a mandatory code of conduct for all councillors outside Brisbane.
Cross River Rail Delivery Authority Bill 2016
This bill sets up the Cross River Rail Delivery Authority, a new independent statutory body to build the Cross River Rail project connecting Brisbane across the river by underground rail. The Authority will operate commercially, with power to compulsorily acquire land and to drive economic development around new stations, and will be wound up once the project is complete.
