3.1.2  Scope of services

The term 'related services' may encompass:

■  services that support the main service function, including non-core services such as maintenance, security, cleaning, laundry, grounds-keeping and some support services; and

■  any core service elements that individual jurisdictions may decide to include (even though generally government will retain responsibility for delivering core services). Core services are those for which government has particular responsibilities to people using the service and the community (such as clinical services in health and teaching in education).

The determination of core and non-core services will occur on a project-by-project basis at the early planning stages of each infrastructure project.
