Looking ahead

Treasury is working on the next Investment Statement, to be released later in 2013, this will progress thinking on whole of balance sheet approach including questions of ownership.

The NIU will release the first 10-year capital intentions Plan after the Investment Statement.

The next year will also see further work on advancing tools to guide and inform the capital allocation process.

Asset management will continue to be a focus, looking to increase the maturity of practice across agencies. A key focus from a Plan perspective is on collaboration, sectors working as a whole rather than as separate agencies, and on optimising existing assets.

For Housing, a focus will be on implementing the Asset Management Strategy which is essentially about making the state housing asset more fit for purpose in terms of upcoming demand.
