In 2004, the National PPP Forum was created comprising members from all States, Territories and the Commonwealth, with a view to:
• Facilitating greater consistency and cooperation across jurisdictions in the provision of infrastructure through public private partnerships; and
• Learning from each other's experiences.
One of the objectives of the National PPP Forum is to provide a consistent approach to project development. These Guidelines respond to this objective by providing broad consistency with PFP guidelines in other jurisdictions7.
