Gas Supply and Other Legislation (Hydrogen Industry Development) Amendment Bill 2023
This bill updates Queensland's gas laws to regulate hydrogen and other renewable gases alongside traditional natural gas. It creates a 'covered gas' category that includes hydrogen, biomethane, synthetic methane and gas blends, and establishes a clear licensing pathway for hydrogen pipelines. The changes support Queensland's renewable hydrogen industry, which could be worth over $33 billion by 2040.
Nature Conservation and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill extends beekeeping access on specified national parks for 20 years until 2044, creates new offences for impersonating rangers and forest officers across Queensland's parks and forests, modernises enforcement powers for conservation officers, and updates governance arrangements for the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area.
Trusts Bill 2025
This bill replaces Queensland's 50-year-old Trusts Act 1973 with a modernised framework for managing trusts. It implements recommendations from the Queensland Law Reform Commission's review, updating trustee powers and duties, strengthening beneficiary protections, and making trust disputes easier and cheaper to resolve through expanded District Court jurisdiction.
