Sunshine Coast Waterways Authority Bill 2026
This bill creates the Sunshine Coast Waterways Authority, a new statutory body to plan for and manage the region's waterways from Pumicestone Passage to the Noosa River. It responds to community concerns about fragmented management by different councils and state agencies, particularly after the 2022 Bribie Island breakthrough, and is modelled on the existing Gold Coast Waterways Authority.
Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Bill 2021
This bill establishes the Brisbane Organising Committee for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games as an independent statutory body. The committee is responsible for planning, organising, promoting and financially managing the Games, with a board of directors representing government, sporting bodies, athletes and independent members.
Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Amendment Bill 2024
This bill establishes the Games Venue and Legacy Delivery Authority, a new statutory body to deliver venues, oversee village construction, and coordinate government responsibilities for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. It gives the authority significant powers including compulsory land acquisition, the ability to bypass normal planning processes, and the power to direct government agencies on transport infrastructure.
