Today we are releasing the agenda for the government's Economic Reform Roundtable.
This is all about bringing people together and building consensus around the big challenges and opportunities in our economy.
The Roundtable agenda released today reflects the government's agenda for long term economic reform, with a focus on resilience, productivity and budget sustainability.
It's a packed schedule.
From competition to capital attraction, AI to approvals, innovation to better regulation - there's a lot to cover.
Each day will be divided into three sessions, and the core group of 23 attendees will participate in all sessions over the 3 days. More invitations will soon be issued for participants to attend specific sessions.
This is a targeted agenda that has been deliberately designed to give us the best possible chance of building consensus on the direction of economic reform.
