Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill makes changes across five unrelated policy areas bundled into one piece of legislation. It restructures the 2032 Olympics infrastructure authority, repeals the Path to Treaty Act 2023 (ending First Nations treaty and truth-telling processes), winds back workplace safety entry powers for union officials, clarifies planning rules for State Facilitated Development, and strengthens the independence of the Public Sector Commissioner.
Appropriation Bill 2025
This bill authorises the Queensland Government to spend $105.4 billion in the 2025-26 financial year across all government departments. It is the standard annual budget bill required by law, and also provides $52.7 billion in interim supply so government services can continue operating in early 2026-27.
Public Sector Bill 2022
This bill replaces the Public Service Act 2008 with a new Public Sector Act that modernises employment arrangements for all Queensland public sector employees. It implements recommendations from the Bridgman Review and the Coaldrake Report, extending employment protections across the entire public sector, creating new rights for temporary workers to convert to permanent roles, and requiring public sector entities to actively support the government's reframed relationship with Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Appropriation Bill 2023
This bill authorises the Queensland Government to spend $78.4 billion in the 2023-24 financial year across all government departments. It is the annual budget appropriation required by law, and also provides interim funding for early 2024-25 and covers unforeseen spending that occurred during 2022-23.
Child Safe Organisations Bill 2024
This bill creates a mandatory child safe organisations system for Queensland, requiring organisations that work with children to meet 10 child safe standards and report allegations of child abuse by their workers. It implements key recommendations from the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse and gives the Queensland Family and Child Commission new powers to oversee child safety across sectors including schools, childcare, health services, religious bodies, sport clubs, and government agencies.
Appropriation Bill 2024
This bill authorises the Queensland Government to spend $90.4 billion in 2024-25 to fund all state government departments and services. It also provides $45.2 billion in interim supply for early 2025-26 and retrospectively authorises $6.15 billion in unforeseen expenditure from the previous year.
