Premier David Crisafulli and his team have a long list of priorities they hope to achieve, including reforming the public service, easing the housing crisis, improving cost of living stress, and strengthening Queensland's health system.
The LNP will take to the government benches later this month with a stronger majority than their Labor predecessors, following an election win proving more emphatic than last weekend's count had initially suggested.— and an accompanying reformation of the public service.Newly sworn-in ministers will each be bound by a charter that Mr Crisafulli says will clearly spell out their duties and KPIs, and he insists they will be held accountable for meeting these targets.
The new health minister will try to reduce hospital ramping, cut waiting lists, attract more doctors to Queensland jobs, and organise the release of hospital data.Treasurer David Janetzki will have his hands full implementing Queensland Government Consulting — a body aimed at reducing the reliance and spend on external consultants and contractors by bringing that expertise in-house.
The first serious test is likely to come on the planned review of Olympic infrastructure, under Olympic and Paralympic Minister Tim Mander. Disappointment, if not surprise, was the response of Indigenous leaders this week when the premier stood firm on his declaration to axe the Truth-telling and Healing Inquiry.Chair Joshua Creamer says he has had "no communication from the new government" following Saturday's election, but would welcome the chance to discuss the inquiry.
