Information on political donations in Queensland will be published live from early next year, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has said.

The Government will work with the Electoral Commission of Queensland (ECQ) on the real-time updates for a list of state and local government electoral donations.

Ms Palaszczuk told Parliament during the estimates hearings that the electronic system would be set up by January 1 and go live by the end of February.

She said the change was fundamental to accountability and integrity.

"It means that instead of waiting months to see who is donating to a political party, people will be able to see who is donating and how much they are donating before an election takes place," Ms Palaszczuk said.

"It is something I fully believe in, it is something my government fully believes in.

"The public expects this, the public wants this and it is my government that is delivering it."

Ms Palaszczuk told Parliament Queensland was one of the first states to introduce the real-time disclosure.

Attorney-General Yvette D'Ath said ECQ was already working on assessing an appropriate software provider, and Cabinet would soon consider what changes to laws and regulations would be needed, such as changes to the Local Government Act.

"The ECQ will also consult widely, including with political parties and interested stakeholders," she said.

The change comes on top of Labor's decision last May to reduce the reporting threshold to $1,000, from $12,800.
