Government's objectives for the community

Section 10 of the Financial Accountability Act 2009 (Qld) requires that the government prepares and tables in the Legislative Assembly a statement of the government’s broad objectives for the community.

The objectives for the community reflect the government’s vision for Queensland. They are:

Safety where you live

Making Queensland safer with stronger laws, better-equipped courts and more police with better tools, while restoring consequences for actions, fixing our Child Safety system, ensuring early intervention and a bigger focus on rehabilitation, giving victims more rights and better support, and taking critical action to arrest skyrocketing rates of domestic and family violence.

Health services when you need them

Restoring health services when Queenslanders need them most through transparent and targeted investment with real-time data, boosting frontline health services, driving resources where they’re needed most, improving our EDs, reopening regional maternity wards, fast-tracking access to elective surgeries, and helping patients to be seen faster.

A better lifestyle through a stronger economy

Growing our economy to drive down the cost of living and give Queenslanders a better lifestyle and a place to call home, by respecting your money and reinstating the Productivity Commission, growing the economy in our regions, backing small and family business, boosting home ownership, easing pressure on rents, ensuring affordable and reliable energy and public transport, taking care of Queensland’s vital existing and emerging industries, delivering more community housing and homelessness services, and boosting women’s economic security.

A plan for Queensland’s future

Planning for Queensland’s future, by building the roads and infrastructure needed for a growing population – including a safer Bruce Highway, putting more teachers in safer schools and preparing young Queenslanders for the future, conserving our pristine environment that draws visitors from across the world, improving water security, and delivering a world-class Olympic and Paralympic Games that leaves a positive legacy for Queenslanders.
