  • delivery, implementation, monitoring and reporting of a State Infrastructure Strategy addressing infrastructure needs and priorities for the next 20 years
  • assessing major public infrastructure proposals
  • assisting with the development of 10-year annual State Infrastructure Program
  • coordinating the provision of information and submissions to Infrastructure Australia (under the direction of the Premier).
