Queensland act
**What this law does (mechanics first)
Creates a special planning and subdivision regime for "integrated resort" sites (the approved "scheme"). Key procedural approvals are taken by the Minister, the Governor in Council and the chief executive (see s 4, 5, 7, 13). Schemes must include defined precincts, primary and secondary thoroughfares (roads), and schedules setting maximum subdivision and voting entitlements (s 3).
Once a scheme is approved it controls development and use of the site and displaces inconsistent parts of the local planning scheme for that site (s 15). It can also exempt some local laws where inconsistent (s 15).
The Act sets out how the site is subdivided and registered (Parts 5 and related sections). It requires the applicant/developer to build and hand over primary and secondary thoroughfares (roads, canals) initially at the developer’s cost (ss 30, 33, 54, 89, 90). Those thoroughfares are then managed and maintained by two statutory bodies corporate created by the Act: a primary thoroughfare body corporate and a principal (residential precinct) body corporate (Parts 8, esp. ss 102, 139, 116, 151).
Bodies corporate have detailed governance, financial and record-keeping duties: they must hold meetings, keep rolls of members, levy contributions (levies) on lot owners proportional to voting/lot entitlements, maintain insurance and keep accounts (ss 106, 109, 116, 145, 151, 168H–168I).
The Act contains detailed subdivision rules for initial lots, secondary lots, group-title and building-units plans, including safeguards about access to road, maximum numbers of lots and how lot entitlements are preserved (Parts 5 and 5 Divisions 1–3; ss 30–66, 79A–79D).

Subject to subsection (3) , a scheme shall not be an approved scheme unless it provides for each of the following— a primary thoroughfare within the site on which there is to be a road; a secondary thoroughfare within the site on which there is to be a road; the division of the site into precincts specifying the name of the precincts, the intended development generally of each precinct and the permitted uses of the land within each precinct; a schedule specifying the maximum number of lots into which each residential precinct may be subdivided; a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the primary thoroughfare body corporate; a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the principal body corporate. Each of them the primary thoroughfare and the secondary thoroughfare may consist of more than 1 thoroughfare. An application for approval of a subsequent stage must provide for at least— the division of the site into precincts specifying the name of the precincts, the intended development generally of each precinct and the permitted uses of the land within each precinct; and a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the primary thoroughfare body corporate. s 3 amd 1991 No. 94 s 4 ; 2004 No. 53 s 2 sch (sec.3-ssec.1) Subject to subsection (3) , a scheme shall not be an approved scheme unless it provides for each of the following— a primary thoroughfare within the site on which there is to be a road; a secondary thoroughfare within the site on which there is to be a road; the division of the site into precincts specifying the name of the precincts, the intended development generally of each precinct and the permitted uses of the land within each precinct; a schedule specifying the maximum number of lots into which each residential precinct may be subdivided; a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the primary thoroughfare body corporate; a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the principal body corporate. (sec.3-ssec.2) Each of them the primary thoroughfare and the secondary thoroughfare may consist of more than 1 thoroughfare. (sec.3-ssec.3) An application for approval of a subsequent stage must provide for at least— the division of the site into precincts specifying the name of the precincts, the intended development generally of each precinct and the permitted uses of the land within each precinct; and a schedule specifying the voting entitlements and the method of calculating the voting entitlements of members of the primary thoroughfare body corporate.
Land subject to tidal influence, canals and floating/special buildings are specifically covered: owners’ titles continue, councils’ powers over foreshores are modified, and bodies corporate (not the State) take many maintenance responsibilities unless expressly accepted by an authority (ss 80–96).
The Act imposes codes of conduct and behavioural controls for professional actors connected with schemes: body corporate managers, caretaking service contractors and letting agents (part 8A, ss 175H–175I and schedules). It gives bodies corporate statutory powers to require transfer of letting-agent "management rights" and to enforce remedial action, with statutory procedures and dispute routes (ss 175J–175Y).
Dispute resolution: certain disputes may be dealt with under the Building Units and Group Titles Act procedures or by QCAT; the Act also requires parties to make reasonable internal attempts at resolution before external applications (ss 179A–179C, 175W, 175X).
Who decides, who pays, and who is affected
Who decides: approvals of an approved scheme (and amendments) are by the Governor in Council with material handled by the Minister and the chief executive (s 7, 13). Local governments approve detailed plans and endorse subdivision and by-laws (ss 31–32, 45–46, 52). Bodies corporate (members) decide governance matters by ordinary and special resolution; executive committees implement day-to-day decisions (Parts 8 and schedules).
Who pays: the applicant/developer must initially construct primary/secondary thoroughfares and canals at their cost (ss 33, 54, 89, 90). Ongoing maintenance, dredging and improvements are paid for by the primary and principal bodies corporate through levies on members/proprietors (ss 91–92, 109, 145, 116, 151).
Who is legally bound or restricted: owners/proprietors of lots in the site (including future lots), mortgagees in possession, lessees and occupiers; letting agents and service contractors operating on-site; local government when a scheme is in force (s 15, ss 178–179).
Why it matters (official rationale, then practical trade-offs)
Officially: the Act establishes a dedicated statutory framework to plan, build and manage large integrated resort developments: it concentrates the rules that apply to the site, prescribes governance structures, and provides bespoke subdivision and waterfront rules (see s 3, pts 2–5, 6).
Practical trade-offs, costs and incentives:
Key conditional rules and notable constraints (section pointers)
Implementation risks, compliance burden and likely behavioural responses
Bottom line (concise): The Act is a detailed, site-specific statutory framework that replaces ordinary planning controls for integrated resort sites with bespoke scheme rules, creates statutory bodies corporate with detailed governance and levy powers, imposes developer-built infrastructure obligations, and extends into regulating the conduct and rights of professional managers and letting agents with statutory enforcement tools. It reallocates development risk and recurring costs across developers, bodies corporate and lot owners, and adds administrative and compliance layers for governance and dispute resolution (see ss 3, 7, 15, 33, 89–90, 109, 116, 151, 175H–175Y).
