Land Valuation Act 2010
LegislationReferenced in 12 bills
Planning and Development (Planning for Prosperity—Consequential Amendments) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2015
This bill changes 67 Queensland Acts so they line up with a proposed new planning system (the Planning and Development Bill 2015 and Planning and Environment Court Bill 2015) that would have replaced the Sustainable Planning Act 2009. Most changes are technical — swapping old planning terms for new ones — but the bill also streamlines environmental approvals for major coordinated projects and clarifies the Coordinator-General's power to authorise entry onto land in State Development Areas such as the Galilee Basin.
Natural Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2019
This bill makes wide-ranging amendments across the Natural Resources, Mines and Energy portfolio. It reforms mineral and petroleum exploration permits with a 15-year cap, strengthens water compliance penalties, introduces dispute resolution for state land sublease disputes, streamlines Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land administration, and supports the establishment of CleanCo as a government-owned clean energy generator.
Land Tax and Other Legislation (Empty Homes Levy) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill would have created an empty homes levy in Queensland, charging property owners 5% of the market value of residential properties left vacant for more than six months each year. It was a private member's bill introduced by Greens MP Dr Amy MacMahon during the housing crisis, modelled on Vancouver's Empty Homes Levy. The bill was discharged and did not become law.
Land Valuation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill modernises Queensland's land valuation framework, which determines how property is valued for land tax, council rates, and state land rent. It gives the valuer-general new powers to make binding guidelines on valuation practices, streamlines the objection process by removing arbitrary monetary thresholds, and gives farmers more control over how their non-adjoining lots are valued.
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 (Empowering Councils) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill reforms Queensland's local government laws to give councils and mayors more authority, simplify the councillor conduct and conflicts of interest frameworks, and cut red tape across a range of council operations. It responds to concerns from the local government sector about unnecessary regulatory burden, particularly around conduct complaints, mandatory training, and disaster recovery decision-making during election caretaker periods.
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.
Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2016
This bill makes a range of technical changes to Queensland's tax, superannuation, and government planning laws. It tightens a stamp duty home concession rule, backdates several tax exemptions that have been run administratively, lets State and Local Government employees choose their own super fund, opens QSuper and LGIAsuper to everyone, and cuts duplicated Queensland Plan reporting.
Agriculture and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2015
This bill updates 10 Queensland agriculture laws with mostly technical changes — clearing the way for drone-based crop spraying, tightening controls on feeding animal products to livestock, speeding up exotic disease responses, simplifying pet microchip rules, and realigning company director liability with national principles. It also stops the automatic repeal of rules that manage the state's 38 remaining forest reserves, keeping them in place until those lands can be transferred to new tenures.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2017
This bill rolls several 2017-18 State Budget tax measures into one package. It extends the boosted $20,000 First Home Owners' Grant for another six months, introduces a new 1.5 per cent land tax surcharge on overseas-based landowners, tightens foreign buyer duty rules, and restores tenant protections against landlords passing on land tax on older commercial leases.
Revenue Legislation Amendment Bill 2018
This bill makes changes across several Queensland revenue laws to implement 2017 election commitments and 2018-19 Budget measures. It increases duties on foreign property buyers and luxury vehicles, extends the boosted First Home Owner Grant, raises land tax on large landholdings, extends the payroll tax rebate for apprentice and trainee wages, modernises the primary production land tax exemption, validates historical mining royalty assessments, and enables electronic delivery of land tax documents.
Planning (Consequential) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2015
This bill updates 68 other Queensland laws so they work with the new Planning Act 2016 and Planning and Environment Court Act 2016, which together replace the Sustainable Planning Act 2009. It mostly changes terminology and cross-references, removes duplicated or outdated planning steps, and sets transitional rules so any application already lodged is finished under the old system.
