<h4><strong>Hansard</strong></h4>

<p>Queensland Hansard&nbsp;was established in 1864, five years after separation from New South Wales. In the first few years, the&nbsp;<em>Moreton Bay Courier&nbsp;</em>published long reports of parliamentary proceedings.&nbsp;&nbsp;The first official Hansard was published for the sittings on 26 April 1864. Queensland Hansard&nbsp;originally included the debates of&nbsp;<a href="http://onesearch.slq.qld.gov.au/SLQ:SLQ_PCI_EBSCO:slq_alma21135683080002061">both</a>&nbsp;the Legislative Council and the Legislative Assembly. The Legislative Council was abolished in 1922, so Queensland Hansard from that date only reports the debates of the Legislative Assembly.</p>
