Queensland Government Gazette

It lists appointments and public notices including new legislation.

Traditionally, publication in the gazette was a legal requirement for an announcement to be official; however, in present times, other methods of communication have replaced some aspects of the gazette's role.

[1] The first Queensland Government Gazette was published on Saturday 10 December 1859, immediately following the separation of Queensland which was proclaimed on 9 December 1859 with the arrival of the first Queensland Governor George Bowen with the Letters Patent signed by Queen Victoria.

[2][3] The 1859 to 1900 editions of the Queensland Government Gazette have been digitised and are available online.

The last printed edition of the gazette was published on Friday 30 November 2012 with only online and CD-ROM formats being available since then.
