This bill makes major reforms to combat metal theft with new offences and penalties up to 25 years imprisonment, streamlines the coronial system, increases stock offence penalties, gives media a legal framework to access court information, and doubles the District Court's civil jurisdiction to $1.5 million.

Integrity and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill implements integrity reforms recommended by the Coaldrake Report and Yearbury Report. It overhauls the regulation of lobbyists to increase transparency, strengthens the independence of Queensland's five core integrity bodies by giving parliamentary committees a greater role in their funding and appointments, and extends the Ombudsman's jurisdiction to cover non-government organisations delivering public services on behalf of government.
Integrity and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2022
This bill strengthens the independence of Queensland's key integrity watchdogs — the Auditor-General, the Integrity Commissioner, and the Ombudsman — following the 2022 Coaldrake Report into public sector culture and accountability. It makes the Auditor-General an officer of Parliament, creates the Office of the Queensland Integrity Commissioner, and introduces a criminal offence for unregistered lobbying.
