Answer

I refer the Member to the Budget 2026 - Summary of Initiatives - 28 May 2026 for details regarding successful Budget initiatives. Initiatives that did not progress in Budget 2026 are under active consideration for future Budget processes No Crown Entities were invited to submit a Budget Bid or new spending initiatives as part of Budget 2026.
