Scheduled to begin at Parliament House in Canberra, the three-day roundtable aims to enhance productivity across sectors. "Productivity means working smarter, with better processes, tools, and skills," the alliance states, emphasising the importance of allowing Australians to focus on what truly matters. The collective voices of the Joint Alliance of Industry Associations are committed to advancing this agenda.
The alliance’s submission suggests the need for an updated "economic rule book" and recommends the appointment of a dedicated minister for better regulation within the cabinet. Among the proposed actions is funding the improvement of natural hazard data standards, which would support resilience measures and help control business and personal insurance premiums.
The government plans to incorporate insights from nearly 900 submissions from experts, industry leaders, and individuals, as well as feedback from over 40 forums held nationwide, into the roundtable discussions.
This significant industry alliance includes leading organisations such as the ICA, the Australian Institute of Company Directors, the Business Council of Australia, the Australian Banking Association, and others, underscoring a broad-based commitment to national economic reform.
