Councils are planning for the long term, so should the Government be doing the same?
The Auditor-General's Office has compiled a report into 58 councils’ long-term plans, and found they made a “significant achievement” meeting their requirements on time in uncertain circumstances.
However, they found the Government lacks comparable planning requirements.

He says most government agencies have a form of infrastructure they’re relying on, so they think that question needs some serious consideration.
