Government Champion — Pormpuraaw
The Queensland Government Champion Program commenced in 2002 as a key initiative of the Meeting Challenges, Making Choices Policy. The aim of the program was to assist communities by:
- reducing red tape, navigate bureaucracy and overcome barriers by utilising government networks
- implementing whole of government responses to critical issues
- harnessing combined agency resources to provide effective, efficient and integrated service delivery responses
- linking with the private sector to create jobs and other opportunities.
The responsibility for the Government Champion for the Pormpuraaw role began in Queensland Transport in 2002 at the commencement of the Government Champion Program in that year. The role was allocated by the Premier to the Director-General of Queensland Transport. Following the amalgamation of the Department of Main Roads and Queensland Transport in 2009, the role continues to be held by the Director-General.
