Queensland Limits Gun Ownership, NSW Pushes Strictest Laws
Update: 2025-12-17
Description
Queenslands Deputy Premier, Jarrod Bleijie, announced that the state has committed to limiting gun ownership following a tragic Hanukkah event in Sydney. The attack, which resulted in fifteen deaths and numerous injuries, sparked calls for gun reform and action against rising antisemitism in Australia. National cabinet agreed to explore options for stronger gun laws, including restricting the number of firearms an individual can own and requiring Australian citizenship for gun licenses. Queensland has only signed on to changes regarding possession limits, with no specific details yet. New South Wales Premier Chris Minns plans to pass reforms for stricter gun laws next week.
