The Queensland Premier has been found guilty of contempt of parliament over her threats to strip Katter's Australian Party (KAP) MPs of staff after they refused to denounce former colleague Fraser Anning's speech calling for a Muslim immigration ban.

Key points: Parliament's Ethics Committee found the Premier's actions against KAP were "improper interference"

Parliament's Ethics Committee found the Premier's actions against KAP were "improper interference" Robbie Katter says MPs should never be bullied into adopting positions

Robbie Katter says MPs should never be bullied into adopting positions Attorney-General Yvette D'Ath described the Premier's apology as "swift"

The findings from State Parliament's powerful Ethics Committee were released today, forcing Annastacia Palaszczuk to immediately apologise.

"I accept responsibility for the actions I took which led to those findings and I offer my unreserved and sincere apology to the house," she told Parliament this morning.

The Premier was originally referred to the Crime and Corruption Commission by Robbie Katter after threatening to remove the minor party's parliamentary resources, unless its members denounced the "final solution" speech made by their former party colleague Senator Fraser Anning in August 2018.

"We have the right to free speech in our parliaments, but that free speech is not free of consequence," she said at a public event at the time.

"So because his party will not denounce Senator Fraser Anning, I denounce his party."

The Premier removed their resources when they refused to back down.

But the Crime and Corruption Commission handed the matter back to Parliament to deal with late last year.

The Ethics Committee found the threats and actions to remove resources "amounted to an improper interference with the free performance by the KAP members", forcing her to apologise.

It also recommended Parliament develop a new set of guidelines to determine resourcing for cross-bench parties.

The KAP eventually dropped Senator Anning from its party late last year.

'I don't get to bully people': Katter

"There was a hell of a lot of talk about what was causing this and what brought us to this point — and that's fine. I'm offended by a lot of things in this Parliament but I don't get to use my position or be able to intimidate or bully people into a position," he said.

"We find a lot of views from that side of the house abhorrent as well but I don't get to try and force you into a position on your voting by whether or not you get your staff taken off you — which we're arguing about here.

"If we want to flash our moral self-righteous credentials in here I'm happy to do that.

"It's very nice making this association between us because it must be by imputation with us and the Nazis — that's really kind — I take very serious offence to that — it has nothing to do with our imputation on that."

Attorney-General Yvette D'Ath said the Premier's apology was "swift".

"This action and timeframe in which the honourable Premier has done so speaks volumes of the character of the woman who leads our great state — the same character she showed when she rallied against those racist and xenophobic comments of Senator Anning.

"After all we were not elected to stand aside when we see wrongs, we were elected to stand up and that's what the Premier did … she stood up to be counted."
