Thirty actions will overhaul the delivery of vital infrastructure projects and introduce financial consequences for objectors. Government departments and State agencies could face withheld or withdrawn funding if they do not make land they own available for energy, water and transport projects. The measure creates a new form of financial jeopardy tied to land availability for public projects. The package of actions aims to accelerate and improve delivery of key infrastructure. The proposals are scheduled to be presented to Cabinet this week by the Public Expenditure Minister, Jack Chambers.
