LegislationReferenced in 7 bills
Body Corporate and Community Management and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2023
This bill reforms Queensland's body corporate and off-the-plan property laws. It creates a new process for terminating ageing community titles schemes that are no longer economically viable, modernises body corporate governance rules around pets, smoking, and parking, and protects off-the-plan buyers from developers misusing sunset clauses to cancel contracts.
Transport and Other Legislation (Road Safety, Technology and Other Matters) Amendment Bill 2020
This bill introduces a Digital Licence App so Queenslanders can carry their driver licence and proof of identity on their phone. It also enables cameras to detect seatbelt and mobile phone offences, fixes technical issues with drink driving interlock laws, preserves legal interests in rail and busway corridor land, and gives Transport and Main Roads access to private land for environmental management.
Tobacco and Other Smoking Products (Dismantling Illegal Trade) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill gives Queensland Health significantly stronger powers to shut down shops selling illegal tobacco and vapes, and hold their landlords accountable. It responds to the rapid growth of the illicit tobacco and vaping market, which is increasingly linked to organised crime and poses serious public health risks, particularly for young people.
Health Legislation Amendment Bill 2025
This bill puts frontline clinicians onto Queensland's Hospital and Health Boards and strengthens enforcement against illegal vaping. It requires each hospital board to include at least one doctor, nurse, or allied health professional who works at that hospital, and it allows seized vaping goods to be immediately destroyed rather than stored for weeks in expensive, hazardous conditions.
Tobacco and Other Smoking Products Amendment Bill 2023
This bill overhauls Queensland's smoking product laws to reduce smoking rates, combat the illicit tobacco trade, and protect more people from second-hand smoke. It introduces mandatory licensing for all tobacco and vaping product sellers, creates new offences for supplying illicit tobacco, expands smoke-free zones to outdoor dining areas, markets, and school carparks, and strengthens protections for children.
Personalised Transport Ombudsman Bill 2019
This bill creates a Personalised Transport Ombudsman to independently handle complaints about taxis, rideshare, and booked hire services in Queensland. It also updates transport laws to support new contactless ticketing technology for public transport and makes several improvements to operator and driver licensing requirements.
Tobacco and Other Smoking Products (Vaping) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024
This bill gives Queensland much stronger powers to crack down on the illegal sale of vaping products and illicit tobacco. It creates new offences for supplying, possessing, advertising and promoting vaping products, with penalties of up to 2,000 penalty units or 2 years imprisonment. It also introduces powers to shut down non-compliant businesses and makes it a specific offence to litter vaping devices.
