Summary
Queensland’s government is proposing to ditch state laws on junk mail, handing control to local councils instead—arguing current fines are too harsh and enforcement distracts from bigger issues like illegal dumping. Under the new plan, councils could manage junk mail with lighter, more proportionate fines, while community newspapers—currently exempt—might still be exempt. The consultation ends June 8, inviting feedback on a smarter, community-led approach to keeping mailboxes and footpaths clean. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
