The Crisafulli Government has delivered on its promise of a Fresh Start for Queensland and ticked off all End of Year 100 Day Plan commitments.
The 100 Day Plan carved a roadmap forward for the government and contained 26 deliverables to be completed by the end of 2024, including:
- passing the Making Queensland Safer Laws, including adult crime, adult time; removing detention as a last resort; and putting victims’ rights first,
- instructing Treasury to dismantle GP payroll tax and abolish stamp duty for first homebuyers on new builds,
- establishing the Queensland Ministerial Housing Taskforce Cabinet Committee to streamline new housing opportunities, including unlocking church and charity owned land for the community housing sector, and
- implementing the electricity maintenance guarantee on government owned power plants to address rising power prices.
Additionally, the Crisafulli Government is continuing to roll out its health plan and lay the groundwork to reduce ambulance ramping and for the publication of real-time hospital data for greater transparency.
50 cent public transport fares have been made permanent to provide vitally needed cost-of-living relief for Queenslanders.

Premier David Crisafulli said the completion of the initial stages of the 100 Day Plan sets the benchmark for the new government moving forward.
“This government outlined its key deliverables for the first week, the first month, and to the end of the year, and we have completed every single thing we promised,” Premier Crisafulli said.
“This is about more than just ticking boxes – it proves to Queenslanders that when we say we are going to do something, we will.
“We have been listening to Queenslanders for many years, we have heard their concerns, and we have acted to address crime in our communities, ease cost-of-living pressures, boost the health system, enhance housing options, and revitalise Queensland.
“We have achieved a lot already and we will continue to work hard every day for Queenslanders to deliver the fresh start we promised.”
