Queensland Alcohol-related Violence and Night-Time Economy Monitoring Project

Criminal Code (Consent and Mistake of Fact) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020

This bill makes changes across several unrelated areas of Queensland law. It clarifies sexual consent provisions in the Criminal Code following a Queensland Law Reform Commission review, bans online wagering sign-up inducements, strengthens alcohol-fuelled violence measures including longer police banning notices and tighter ID scanning, and ensures victims of solicitor dishonesty receive full compensation from the Legal Practitioners' Fidelity Guarantee Fund.
