Which party is Annastacia Palaszczuk?
The Queensland Parliament consists of the Queen and the Legislative Assembly. The Queensland Parliament is unicameral, meaning it has only one parliamentary chamber, the Legislative Assembly. The upper chamber, the Legislative Council, was abolished in 1922.
The leader of the party which commands a majority in the assembly is then legally appointed the premier by the lieutenant governor, representing the Canadian monarch in right of the province. Premiers advise the lieutenant governor on whom to appoint to the cabinet and they guide legislation through the legislature.
On 23 March 1922, legislation to abolish the Upper House was passed and Queensland became the only unicameral state parliament in Australia. This resulted in the government formulating a policy to abolish the Council. This proposal was continually rejected by Upper House Members and was defeated in a referendum.
The Queensland Parliament is unique among Australian states in that it was the only colonial Parliament (pre-1901) to commence with two chambers and is now the only state parliament to have just one chamber, following the abolition of the Legislative Council in 1922.
Queensland is currently divided into 93 state electorates. At a state election, electors in each electoral district vote for one candidate to represent them in parliament.
