The Bill

On 23 February 2016, The Attorney-General and Minister for Justice and Minister for Training and Skills, the Hon. YM D’ATH, introduced the Brisbane Casino Agreement Amendment Bill 2016.

The Bill was referred to the Infrastructure, Planning and Natural Resources Committee for examination. The Standing Orders require the committee to provide its report to the Legislative Assembly by 12 April 2016.

The objectives of the Bill are to:

• progress amendments to the Brisbane Casino Agreement Act 1992 (BCAA) to replace the existing Brisbane Casino Agreement (BCA) with a new Agreement which introduces a new planning and development arrangement for the existing Brisbane casino-hotel complex.
• reflect the intention of the parties to require any future redevelopment or repurposing applications for the casino-hotel complex and the site (relating to the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane project) to be assessed and approved by the Minister for Economic Development Queensland.
