Strong Response To Government Business Reforms

Tasmanian Government

The Tasmanian Liberal Government is progressing its landmark reforms to ensure Government-owned businesses act in the best interests of Tasmanians.

Forty-eight submissions were received from stakeholders in response to the Government Business Governance Reform - Draft Plan that has been out for consultation.

In the interest of transparency, all submissions have been published on the Treasury website, with the exception of two submissions that requested confidentiality.

Treasurer Guy Barnett extends his gratitude to all stakeholders who took the time to provide feedback on the draft plan.

"Our Government is ensuring that GBE's take a Team Tasmania approach when conducting its business, and make decisions that are in the best interests of Tasmanians," the Treasurer said.

"Our proposal will deliver sweeping legislative reform to address the shortcomings that we have identified over recent months and to chart our course for the next 30 years.

"These reforms support economic development, improve the customer experience, improve efficiency across administration and operations and ensure our GBEs are sustainable for the long term.

"We are better together and by ensuring a Team Tasmania approach to doing business we can deliver better outcomes for all Tasmanians.

"The feedback received from stakeholders will now be carefully considered as we move forward with the reform process."
