The responsibilities of ministers and their portfolios are set out in Administrative Arrangements Orders. For each Minister, they detail the principal responsibilities, the Acts they administer, and the departments, agencies and office holders responsible for them.
The Administrative Arrangements Order is published in the Queensland Government Gazette and online.
Our functions and powers are derived from administering the Acts of Parliament in accordance with Administrative Arrangements Order (No. 2) 2021 (PDF, 375KB) and Administrative Arrangements Order (No. 3) 2021 (PDF, 138KB).
