on to the Department of State Development. The policy was approved by Cabinet inDecember 1999, and the actual implementation program commenced in February 2000.The Local Industry Policy has been implemented through requiring project proponents(i.e. the entities funding the projects) to prepare Local Industry Participation Plans forQueensland government funded projects with a value greater than $5 million or majorprojects where the Queensland government has provided a significant contribution 10 . Inthese plans project proponents are required to demonstrate how they will givecompetitive Queensland businesses an opportunity to be involved in their project.The Policy outlines seven key criteria that project proponents should take intoconsideration (where applicable) when developing their Local Industry ParticipationPlan. These are specified in the policy (“Local Industry Policy” n.d., p.5) as:“1. Development of long-term, internationally competitive industries inQueensland and Australia;2. Employment, training and skills development;3. Regional development and initiatives;4. Value-added activity;5. Opportunities for participation by small business;6. Existing industry development activity and proposed new investment; and7. Innovation, research, and development.”The Queensland Department of Tourism, Regional Development and Industry is thesponsoring agency for the Local Industry Policy. Its tasks include the policy’simplementation and evaluation, as well as reporting to Cabinet on the ongoingimplementation of the policy.10 Defined as a government contribution of more than $2.5 million .19
The contracting or delivering agency(s) are the various project proponents – for example,the Department of Main Roads. As noted above, they are responsible for preparing LocalIndustry Participation Plans. These agencies are also required to complete and submitreports on the outcome of their Local Industry Participation Plans to the chair of theLocal Industry Committee on a six monthly basis;The Industry Capabilities Network (ICN) is also involved in the implementation of theLocal Industry Policy, as it has the specific function ofassist[ing] with the identification of competitive local supplies for thepurpose of increasing opportunities for import replacement activities.”(“Local Industry Policy” n.d., p.6)Its tasks associated with the Local Industry Policy include: the provision of advice toproject proponents on the capabilities and competitiveness of Queensland industry; theprovision advice or seconded staff to project proponents to assist in the development ofLocal Industry Participation Plans; and the provision of advice to project proponents onthe ability of Queensland and Australian industry to uptake overseas technology.Art Built-InThe Queensland policy for inclusion of public art as a percentage of building works is theArt Built-In policy. Despite the difference in names between the Queensland and theWestern Australian policies (Percent Art) they have virtually identical policy intent, witha percentage of the total building contracts allocated to public art commissions althoughthey do differ on specific details.It is important to note that the Art Built-In policy has been recently replaced inQueensland by the art+place policy, following a review by the Queensland Government.As commissioned public art projects funded under this new policy have yet to befinalised, this report will focus on the Art Built-In policy instead. Important differencesbetween the two policies are noted later in the report.20
