- Summary:
-
The Bill's stated purpose is to amend Queensland statutes to align the State Emergency Service, established by the State Emergency Service Bill 2023, and Marine Rescue Queensland, established by the Marine Rescue Queensland Bill 2023, under the control of the Queensland Police Service, and make the necessary administrative and consequential amendments for this transition to occur. The Bill also proposes to meet certain recommendations from the Inspector-General of Emergency Management (IGEM) Review, published in 2023, by formally establishing the State Disaster Management Group in the Disaster Management Act 2003.The objectives of the Bill are also to recognise the value of the State Emergency Service and Marine Rescue Queensland members and their service to the community. Submitters to the Inquiry were generally supportive of the Bill, with several stakeholders providing additional feedback on aspects of the Bill, and the wider reform process of Queensland's emergency service and disaster management arrangements. The committee identified and considered issues of fundamental legislative principle (FLP) in the Bill and is satisfied that sufficient regard has been given to the rights and liberties of individuals and the institution of parliament.Having considered the issues raised by submitters and the explanations provided in the statement of compatibility, the committee is also satisfied that the Bill is compatible with human rights in accordance with the Human Rights Act 2019. The committee makes one recommendation, that the Bill be passed by the Legislative Assembly. (Executive summary, page iv)
