Queensland Law Reform Publications

Law reform agencies review the law and make recommendations for new laws or changes to existing laws. If a law reform report leads to a bill being introduced into Parliament, then that report may be used when interpreting the Act. The Acts Interpretation Act 1954 (Qld) s 14B covers the use of extrinsic materials for statutory interpretation.
