ECCQ notes that the Productivity Commission (PC) has been tasked by the Australian Government to undertake five inquiries to identify priority reforms under each of the five pillars of the Government’s
productivity growth agenda and formulate actionable recommendations to assist governments to make meaningful and measurable productivity-enhancing reforms.
The Commission has further been tasked to report on priority reforms in each of the areas under the Government’s five pillar productivity growth agenda. Specifically, these are priority reforms which
enhance productivity through:
a. Creating a more dynamic and resilient economy

d. Delivering quality care more efficiently
e. Investing in cheaper, cleaner energy and the net zero transformation
