The Premier’s Business Council
The Victorian Government will keep working with its partners in business and industry.
It’s the approach that we took in the development of this Economic Growth Statement – and it’s the approach we’ll take as we deliver on it too.
To make sure our actions remain impactful and on-track, we’ll continue to ensure a direct line of engagement with business – establishing the Premier’s Business Council.
The Premier’s Business Council will be made up of leading Victorian business people and will provide direct advice to the Premier.
The Premier’s Business Forums
In addition to her Business Council, the Premier will also establish and lead new Forums for business and industry.
These Forums will be led by industry associations and unions, and will provide a platform for the Premier to hear directly from business on how government can continue to create a stronger Victorian economy.
The Forums will:
- Inform government about real-time opportunities and barriers facing business
- Ensure existing government policy responses are working
- Test new or prospective government policy responses
- Explore how business can contribute to broader government and societal objectives
- Communicate government’s economic agenda.
Effective policy evolves as conditions change, and the Forums will provide the opportunity for businesses to give feedback on their experiences.
It’ll also provide an opportunity for businesses to share their ideas and energy on the future direction of our state.
