These will be the biggest reforms of our government businesses in a generation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Treasurer, Guy Barnett, said the Government\u2019s reforms would ensure the Tasmanian people are at the top of government business organisational charts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been clear \u2013 we will sort the Spirits, fix the GBEs and back in our tourism industry, and that\u2019s what we\u2019re delivering,\u201d the Treasurer said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur proposal will deliver sweeping legislative reform to address the shortcomings that we have identified over recent months and to chart our course for the next 30 years. These reforms support economic development, improve the customer experience, improve efficiency across administration and operations and ensure our GBEs are sustainable for the long term.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are better together and by ensuring a Team Tasmania approach to doing business we can deliver better outcomes for all Tasmanians. We can only deliver on this vision by utilising the expertise and support of our broader industry and business community.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Barnett said the government is working closely with its community as it progresses these reforms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur Government is stepping up in order to ensure the success of these landmark reforms,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want Tasmania to thrive under our 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania\u2019s Future and we are taking every opportunity possible to continue this important work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.railexpress.com.au\/tasmanian-government-flags-changes-to-government-owned-businesses\/\">Tasmanian Government flags changes to government-owned businesses<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.railexpress.com.au\/\">Rail Express<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.railexpress.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Picture-courtesy-TasRail.5a3cd83d58356de8228ee893dd41e0ef.jpg\" alt=\"\"><figcaption>Image\/TasRail<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Tasmanian Government is embarking on reforms to government-owned businesses which includes TasRail.
