Liz Cunningham, the Member for Gladstone in central Queensland, says splitting the state into two time zones for daylight saving is ridiculous.
Ms Cunningham says most people do not want daylight saving, let alone two time zones.
She says it would disadvantage many Queenslanders.
"I think it is the silliest idea that has come out of the Parliament in a long time," she said.
"The south-east corner has whinged for a number of years now about being out of step with Sydney, but by supporting a split time zone in Queensland, they're prepared to put their own state's residents at a disadvantage."
