Queensland Government publications

Queensland has three types of gazettes: the Queensland Government gazettes, the Queensland industrial gazette and the Queensland Police gazette.

For current Queensland government gazettes, there are the following types:

•     General Gazette (includes information such as public notices, form notifications, appointments)
•     Transport Gazette (includes acquisition of lands for road use)
•     Natural Resources and Mines Gazette (includes easement notices)
•     Local Government Gazette (includes planning scheme and local law changes).
•     There are also Extraordinary or Special Gazettes (includes such notices such as the Writ for Election, State General Election/Polling Booth or disaster declaration). These are gazetted on a specific date, outside the weekly Friday gazettes.
