Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025

Revenue (Cost of Living Relief Locked-in Law) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2026
This bill locks four cost-of-living measures from the 2026-27 State Budget into law. It guarantees 50 cent public transport fares, makes the $30,000 First Home Owner Grant permanent, extends the 50% payroll tax rebate for apprentice and trainee wages by a year, and restricts stamp duty home concessions to citizens, permanent residents and certain foreign retirees.
Home Ownership and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2026
This bill makes technical changes to Queensland's home grant and tax laws so that people buying through the Boost to Buy and Help to Buy shared equity schemes get the same stamp duty discounts, First Home Owner Grant and land tax exemption as other buyers, even though the government holds a share in their home. It also widens first home stamp duty relief, confirms certain 'builders' terms' homes are still new homes, and tidies up outdated references across five tax Acts.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill implements a range of revenue measures from the 2021-22 and 2022-23 Queensland State Budgets. It introduces a new mental health levy on large employers, reforms land tax to account for interstate property holdings, increases coal royalty rates during periods of high prices, and provides tax relief for small businesses, apprentice employers, and retirement visa holders.
Local Government (Councillor Conduct) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill reforms Queensland's local government councillor conduct complaints system, implementing recommendations from a parliamentary committee inquiry. It introduces a new preliminary assessment process, compulsory councillor training, a vexatious complainant scheme, and greater transparency for conduct investigations. The bill also modernises advertising requirements, amends the Queen's Wharf Brisbane Act, and updates Moreton Bay City Council references.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill removes stamp duty for first home buyers purchasing new homes or vacant land to build on, with no property value cap. It also lets home buyers rent out part of their property without losing stamp duty concessions, and exempts medical practices from payroll tax on wages paid to GPs.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill implements several 2024-25 State Budget revenue measures. It makes it cheaper for first home buyers by increasing stamp duty concession thresholds and doubling the First Home Owner Grant to $30,000, while raising surcharges on foreign and absentee property owners and extending payroll tax rebates for apprentice and trainee wages.
