Vision and purpose

Sustainable and secure water resources are central to Queensland’s economic transformation and the legacy we pass on to future generations.

Our Queensland water strategy (PDF, 6.3MB) grew from wide consultation, stakeholder feedback and a review of the Queensland Bulk Water Opportunities Statement (QBWOS).

The QBWOS review aligned with the release of the State Infrastructure Strategy 2022 (SIS). The SIS outlines the Queensland Government’s infrastructure requirements over the next two decades.

We are working on a Strategic Water Infrastructure Plan (SWIP) to identify, assess and prioritise water infrastructure for the next 10-15 years. The SWIP will complement this strategy and together they will replace QBWOS.
