Promoting industry development: assistance by government
Overview
In 1993, the Government released two major policy statements relating to industry and regional development within the state; Doing Business in Victoria – Victorian Industry Statement and Investing in Country Victoria: A nine-point plan for investment and employment growth in provincial and rural Victoria.
The overall objective of the audit was to assess the extent to which strategic and operational policies in place within the Department of Business and Employment were conducive to achieving maximum effectiveness in the program's delivery and performance.
