Queensland uses a Public Benefit Test Plan (PBTP) to scope the nature and structure of all reviews. Terms of reference for the review are determined, and issues/discussion papers prepared; generally for medium to major reviews. Interested parties are consulted and the review papers – excluding information that is commercial-in-confidence – are publicly available.

4.1 Guide to the Queensland legislation review timetable

Legislation review The Queensland Government published its legislation review schedule in June 1996. Changes since then have generated a review program which now covers 114 separate Acts and associated Regulations. Queensland uses a Public Benefit Test Plan (PBTP) to scope the nature and structure of all reviews. Terms of reference for the review are determined, and issues/discussion papers prepared; generally for medium to major reviews. Interested parties are consulted and the review papers – excluding information that is commercial-in-confidence – are publicly available. Queensland also uses a reduced review process where there is minimal restriction on competition, or the Government policy position is clear and not likely to change. In this case there is targeted consultation (where appropriate) and analysis based on clause 5(1) of the CPA. The review results are publicly available. Progress to 31 December 1998 Queensland had 68 reviews scheduled for completion by the end of December 1998. Of these, 31 reviews were complete and a further 24 were currently underway. Of those underway, six were nearing completion, one Act was to be repealed and three were to be addressed by national review. There are 13 reviews yet to be commenced. The Government had responded to the recommendations of 26 reviews and repealed 23 pieces of legislation. Reform highlights include: • Reforms to the Chicken Meat Industry Committee Act 1976 provide for individual

growers to negotiate directly with processors outside of legislative collective bargaining arrangements.

• The Brisbane Marketing Authority is proposed for corporatisation.

• Advertising controls have been reduced and commercial controls removed in regulations governing Health and Medical Practitioners (separate review for Pharmacy and Optometry pending).

The updated information provided Queensland is in the form of its NCP Annual Report, listed in alphabetical order of the agency responsible for administering the review.
