asked the Minister representing the Minister for Finance and Deregulation, in writing, on 9 February 2011:

In respect of the Advisory Group on Reform of Australian Government Administration’s report Ahead of the game: Blueprint for the reform of Australian Government administration (March 2010, page 44), has recommendation 3.3 ‘Improve policy implementation’ been implemented; if so, what measures have been taken in this area to prevent a repeat of the policy implementation problems experienced with the Home Insulation Program, the Green Loans Program and the Building the Education Revolution program.

The Minister for Finance and Deregulation has supplied the following answer to the honourable member’s question:

The government has previously announced a remediation process relating to the Home Insulation Program and the Green Loans Program is not proceeding. The Building the Education Revolution program is delivering vital infrastructure to school communities on an unprecedented scale.

With regard to the wider reform agenda, I refer the member to my speech to the Commonwealth Authorities and Companies Discussion Forum, “Better Government”, at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra on Wednesday 8 December 2010.
