Queensland has always been a great place to live and work. However, with growth, comes pressure on our essential services and infrastructure, and new challenges to create safer communities and more jobs.

This government recognises these challenges, which is why we have a strong plan to grow a four-pillar economy and sustain it by addressing our debt. We will need to take tough, disciplined, strong decisions. We will need new ideas, realistic policies and, above all, a planned approach for the long term.

We are making significant progress state-wide and locally, but we are determined to do a whole lot more. If we stick to our strong plan, we’ll have the schools our children deserve, the hospitals we need and the infrastructure and services that we want.
