Health and Wellbeing Queensland Bill 2019

This bill establishes Health and Wellbeing Queensland, a new statutory body with an initial budget of nearly $33 million dedicated to preventing chronic disease and improving the health of Queenslanders. It takes a whole-of-government and community approach, working across sectors like education, employment and housing to tackle the social factors that drive poor health outcomes.
