1.  Introduction



The national PPP policy and guidelines apply to all Queensland PPP projects that are released to the market from January 2009. Where the national PPP guidelines allow flexibility, the Queensland-specific requirements in this document and its annexures apply.

Existing Queensland whole-of-government policies such as the Project Assurance Framework and Gateway Reviews continue to apply to Queensland PPP projects.

The most significant Queensland departures are summarised in this document, with remaining detailed departures to be provided in annexures on the web-site, www.dip.qld.gov.au.
