Offsets Register (Environmental Offsets Act 2014)
A public register relating to authorities that have been issued with an offset condition, is maintained in accordance with section 90 of the Queensland Environmental Offsets Act 2014. The Offsets Register is a mechanism that provides for transparent environmental reporting.
Conditions for environmental offsets are applied under the assessment legislation. The Environmental Protection Act 1994, Planning Act 2016, Nature Conservation Act 1992, or the Marine Parks Act 2014 regulate whether an environmental offset is required as a condition of an authority.
The Offset Register includes searchable information on:
- environmental authorities that require offsets;
- the impacted environmental matter and location;
- proponent delivered offsets;
- advanced offsets areas (including values); and
- expression of interest areas.

Information on the Register has been prepared with care and is updated periodically. Records in the register are from agencies, such as state government departments and local governments, that play a central role in the planning, approval, enforcement, and monitoring of environmental offsets. Their responsibilities are defined under the Environmental Offsets Act 2014 and Regulation.
The department makes no statements, representations or warranties about the accuracy of information contained in the Offsets Register.
