Australia has received a mixed scorecard on infrastructure reform, according to recent analysis commissioned by Infrastructure Australia.

Infrastructure Australia commissioned EY to examine the progress of infrastructure reform since the release of the 2016 Australian Infrastructure Plan. The report finds that governments across Australia are at varying stages of progress against the reform recommendations in the 2016 Plan.

Of the 25 recommendations which were ranked as either high or moderate priority in the 2016 Plan, EY’s analysis found that:

• Progress has been ‘sporadic’ on implementation of eight recommendations
• Progress has been ‘mixed’ regarding implementation of sixteen recommendations
• No progress had been made on the recommendation 5.6 that the Australian Government continue providing incentives for state and territory governments to improve the efficiency of their balance sheets by recycling appropriate publicly owned assets.
