The Queensland Legislative Council was the upper house of the parliament in the Australian state of Queensland. It was a fully nominated body which first took office on 1 May 1860. It was abolished by the Constitution Amendment Act 1921, which took effect on 23 March 1922. Consequently, the Legislative Assembly of Queensland is the only unicameral state Parliament in Australia. Two territories, the Northern Territory and Australian Capital Territory, also maintain unicameral parliaments.

  • El Consejo Legislativo de Queensland fue la cámara alta del parlamento en el estado australiano de Queensland. Fue un organismo completamente designado que asumió el cargo por primera vez el 1 de mayo de 1860. Fue abolido por la Ley de Enmienda de la Constitución de 1921, que entró en vigor el 23 de marzo de 1922. En consecuencia, la Asamblea Legislativa de Queensland es el único parlamento estatal unicameral de Australia. Dos territorios, el Territorio del Norte y el Territorio de la Capital Australiana, también mantienen parlamentos unicamerales. La mayoría de los primeros miembros del Consejo procedían de familias adineradas, tenían una buena educación y nacieron en Inglaterra.​ El absentismo fue un problema en los primeros años, ya que algunos miembros regresaron a Inglaterra y estuvieron ausentes durante varios años.​ (es)

Most of the early members of the Council came from wealthy families, were well educated and were born in England. Absenteeism was a problem in the early years, with some members returning to England, being absent for several years. (en)
