Brisbane was elected as host of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in July 2021. Under the Olympic Host Contract (host contract), the IOC entrusts the Brisbane Organising Committee for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games (corporation), the State of Queensland, Brisbane City Council, and the Australian Olympic Committee with the planning, organising, financing, and staging of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games (games), in accordance with the terms of the host contract and the IOC’s Olympic Charter.
The Bill amends the Brisbane Olympic and Paralympic Games Arrangements Act 2021 (Act) to establish the Games Venue and Legacy Delivery Authority (authority) and its board.
It is proposed that the main functions of the authority will be to:
- deliver venues in time for the games and within budget allocations, including managing effects on users of the venues during their development
- monitor and ensure the delivery of villages in time for the games
- coordinate and integrate the planning and delivery of State, Commonwealth and local government obligations under, or related to, the host contract.
It is proposed that the authority have a board of directors (board) to ensure the authority performs its functions in a proper, effective and efficient way. The board will have the capacity to establish committees (which can exercise delegated authority) and commissions (of an advisory nature). The authority may employ a chief executive officer and other staff. Other government agencies may also agree to make the services of officers or employees available to the authority.
