Recommendation
40. Increase the total available pool of public infrastructure finance and funding by reviewing the potential to use private sector finance and funding sources, including:
- investigating asset recycling through divesting suitable assets, such as underused buildings and land, with proceeds used to fund new infrastructure
- developing whole of government principles to inform the prioritisation of state funding contributions where these facilitate strategic private sector investment.
