Performance and Compliance Audits in Progress
Management of landfills
Management of landfill is important as ineffective management can lead to adverse human health and environmental impacts, both currently and for future generations. While extensive work is being undertaken to divert waste from landfill, the risks and future costs associated with landfill rehabilitation and aftercare are significant.
This audit will assess the effectiveness of governance and regulatory oversight of landfill management, including providing for future rehabilitation and aftercare.
This audit is underway.
Investment facilitation in Tasmania
The Coordinator-General is a single portal and point of contact for significant investment opportunities for the State. In this role, the Coordinator-General:
- facilitates investment through assisting with site selection, introductions and supporting proponents as they work through their approvals processes
- works across different parts of government to ensure projects are understood and tasks are carried out in a timely manner.
This audit will assess whether these objectives have been met and intended outcomes have been defined and delivered.
This audit is underway.
Proposed sale of Wilkinsons Point land
In February 2020, the Crown agreed in-principle to sell most of the land at Wilkinsons Point to the LK Group. The proposed land sale and associated development was one element of a broader proposal.
This investigation, which is a result of a referral to the Auditor-General, will assess whether the Department of State Growth followed appropriate processes for the proposed sale and associated development of Wilkinsons Point land.
This audit is underway.
