Hon David Janetzki MP

This bill provides formal parliamentary approval for $5.407 million in supplementary funding for Queensland Parliament that was spent during the 2024-25 financial year. The Queensland Constitution requires all government spending to be authorised by Parliament, so this bill retrospectively approves unforeseen expenditure that has already occurred and been reviewed by the Auditor-General.

This bill formally approves $5.741 billion in government spending that exceeded the original 2024-25 budget across 16 departments. The money has already been spent and reviewed by the Auditor-General, and Parliament must now formally authorise it as required by the Queensland Constitution.

This bill re-establishes the Queensland Productivity Commission as an independent statutory body to conduct public inquiries, research and provide advice on economic and social issues, regulatory matters and legislation. The Commission was abolished in 2015 and its re-establishment was a 2024 election commitment. Its role is advisory only — it cannot make binding decisions, but the government must respond publicly to its inquiry reports.

This bill authorises funding for the Queensland Parliament for the 2025-26 financial year. It allocates $146.5 million to the Legislative Assembly and parliamentary service for their operations, and provides roughly half that amount as interim supply for 2026-27 to bridge the gap until next year's budget.

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.

This bill implements several 2025-26 State Budget measures and makes other amendments across seven Acts. It extends the doubled First Home Owner Grant and the apprentice payroll tax rebate, introduces contingency windfall taxes to protect foreign surcharge revenue, reforms how Budget Estimates hearings are chaired, and clarifies SPER registration fee rules.

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.

This bill sought to make supervision orders for dangerous sex offenders indefinite rather than fixed-term, and to create automatic lifelong electronic monitoring for repeat sex offenders. It was a private member's bill introduced by Mr Janetzki MP that lapsed at the end of the 56th Parliament and did not become law.

This bill sought to reintroduce optional preferential voting for Queensland state elections, meaning voters would only need to mark their first choice candidate rather than numbering every box on the ballot paper. It was a private member's bill introduced by Mr David Janetzki and linked to the voting system originally recommended by the post-Fitzgerald Electoral and Administrative Review Commission. The bill lapsed at the end of the 56th Parliament and did not become law.

This bill reshapes Queensland's energy legislation by repealing renewable energy targets, renaming the Act to the Energy (Infrastructure Facilitation) Act 2024, and shifting planning towards a market-driven approach focused on affordable, reliable and sustainable energy. It creates a new legislative framework for the CopperString transmission project to connect North and North West Queensland to the national electricity grid, and strengthens public ownership provisions for existing government-owned power assets.

This bill sought to introduce mandatory minimum prison sentences for the murder of children and create a new criminal offence of 'child homicide'. Named after Mason Jett Lee, a toddler who was killed, it aimed to ensure sentencing for child deaths reflects community expectations and aligns with other Australian jurisdictions. The bill was defeated at the second reading and did not become law.

This bill removes stamp duty for first home buyers purchasing new homes or vacant land to build on, with no property value cap. It also lets home buyers rent out part of their property without losing stamp duty concessions, and exempts medical practices from payroll tax on wages paid to GPs.

This bill formally authorises $4.207 million in additional spending for Queensland's Parliament that occurred during the 2023-24 financial year. Under the Queensland Constitution, all government spending from the Consolidated Fund must be approved by Parliament, including costs that exceeded the original budget.

This bill formally authorises $1.128 billion in additional government spending that occurred during the 2023-24 financial year across 13 departments. It is a routine constitutional requirement ensuring Parliament approves all payments from Queensland's Consolidated Fund, including expenditure that exceeded original budget allocations.
