Last chance to have a say on scope of government

There’s just a day left to submit your views on the role and size of the government.

Chief Minister Allan Bell launched a public consultation on the Scope of Government following an independent review earlier this year.

It’s designed to look at how the range of services delivered by government can be reduced.

Ideas include privatisation, bringing in agencies, and running more services on a commercial basis by government owned companies.

Mr Bell says he wants to hear what ideas the public have before deciding the way forward.

You can find the consultation on the government website – it’s open until 5pm on Friday.
