While it is not practical to resolve environmental, planning, cultural heritage and native title matters at this stage, any material issues that are likely to arise should be identified. This will ensure:
∙ there are no insurmountable issues that would render any of the project delivery options unworkable;
∙ appropriate modifications can be made to the project delivery options to accommodate specific issues.
Early identification of significant issues will assist with project planning and resourcing during the public private partnership business case development stage.
