Queensland Audit Office AI ethics + Advance Queensland
Queensland's AI governance combines QAO ethical risk management with state innovation funding
Queensland's AI governance is anchored by the Queensland Audit Office's 2024 AI ethics report which set state-level expectations on AI risk management for Queensland public-sector entities. Sector-specific strategies like the Department of Transport and Main Roads AI Strategy flow through procurement.
Advance Queensland is Queensland's flagship innovation programme, with A$9M invested in Emerging Technologies Acceleration including the Queensland AI Hub — a combined training centre + startup scale-up support. The Future Queensland Science Strategy 2024–2029 sets the broader state framework. Queensland signed on to the National Framework for the Assurance of AI in Government in June 2024.
