Queensland Treasury Corporation
OrganisationReferenced in 10 bills
Mineral and Energy Resources and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2020
This bill makes wide-ranging changes to Queensland's resources, energy, and water laws. It introduces industrial manslaughter offences for the mining and resources sector, reforms how the State manages mine rehabilitation and abandoned mines, tightens scrutiny of who can hold resource authorities, extends energy consumer protections, and increases transparency of water infrastructure charges in South East Queensland.
Payroll Tax Rebate, Revenue and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2015
This bill is an omnibus package that amends nine Acts. Its centrepiece is a 25 per cent payroll tax rebate on apprentice and trainee wages for three years, backed by $45 million. It also sets up the legal framework for electronic property conveyancing, creates a stamp duty concession for mining exploration farm-in deals, delays anti-bikie licensing rules by 12 months, and requires licensed plumbers to install water meters.
Mineral and Energy Resources (Financial Provisioning) Bill 2017
This bill creates a new pooled Financial Provisioning Scheme that makes mining companies share the cost of protecting Queensland from unrehabilitated mine sites. It also requires every mine to prepare a binding Progressive Rehabilitation and Closure Plan with enforceable milestones, audited every three years.
Home Ownership and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2026
This bill amends Queensland's revenue and grants legislation to support home ownership and fix administrative issues across multiple tax laws. It ensures participants in the Boost to Buy and Help to Buy shared equity programs can access the same stamp duty concessions, First Home Owner Grant, and land tax exemptions as other home buyers.
State Penalties Enforcement (Modernisation) Amendment Bill 2022
This bill modernises Queensland's fines enforcement system by centralising the management of camera-detected and tolling offence fines under the Queensland Revenue Office and SPER, so people deal with one agency instead of several. It also reduces land tax for Special Disability Trusts, guarantees the security of rental bonds held by the Residential Tenancies Authority, and updates government confidentiality rules.
Appropriation Bill (No. 2) 2015
This bill retrospectively approves $9.11 million of unforeseen government spending from the 2014-15 financial year. It also changes the rules so that Queensland government departments can borrow from lenders other than the Queensland Treasury Corporation, as long as the Treasurer approves.
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.
Mineral and Energy Resources (Financial Provisioning) Bill 2018
This bill creates a new Financial Provisioning Scheme for Queensland's mining and energy sector, replacing the old financial assurance system. It establishes a pooled fund where companies pay risk-based contributions, and introduces enforceable Progressive Rehabilitation and Closure Plans to ensure mined land is progressively restored during and after mining operations.
Queensland Future Fund Bill 2020
This bill establishes the Queensland Future Fund framework, starting with a Debt Retirement Fund that sets aside money exclusively for paying down State debt. It also legislates a 100% guarantee that the State will fully fund public sector defined benefit superannuation entitlements. The model is based on similar NSW legislation designed to satisfy credit rating agency requirements.
Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation (National Injury Insurance Scheme) Amendment Bill 2016
This bill creates a lifetime no-fault scheme for Queensland workers who suffer catastrophic injuries at work, such as spinal cord injury, major brain injury, severe burns or loss of limbs. It guarantees them ongoing treatment, care and support regardless of who caused the accident, starting from 1 July 2016. The bill also reforms self-insurance rules, blocks injury costs being shifted onto subcontractors, and protects compensation payments from dropping when wages fall.
