Parliament of Queensland

The Parliament of Queensland is the legislative body responsible for making laws, debating policies, and overseeing the government in Queensland, Australia. It consists of two parts: the Legislative Assembly, whose members are elected by the public, and the Legislative Council (if applicable). The Parliament discusses issues affecting the state, passes legislation, and scrutinizes government actions to ensure accountability. It operates within a parliamentary democracy, meaning elected representatives represent the people's interests and make decisions on their behalf under a constitutional framework.
