Overview
Role of the Auditor-General
The role of the Auditor-General is to provide Parliament with independent assurance of public sector accountability and performance. This is achieved through reporting to Parliament on the results of its financial and performance audits.
About the Auditor-General Report
This report considers whether Building Queensland effectively and efficiently led and/or assisted agencies to deliver robust business cases for major infrastructure projects and provided agencies with expert advice about infrastructure.
The report contained six recommendations.
For Building Queensland, recommendations included improving the design and application of frameworks for developing business cases, publishing assessment criteria for infrastructure pipeline reports and improving internal infrastructure knowledge and capability.
For Building Queensland and the then responsible department, now Department of State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning, recommendations included working together to:
- assess the merits of developing both the infrastructure pipeline and State Infrastructure Plan, and
- review and clarify Building Queensland’s role and obligations in fulfilling what is required under the Building Queensland Act 2015, to enable it to more effectively manage its functions.
