		The deterioration of Queensland's public administration and the poor quality of the economic outlook are serious threats, which our current political process appears unable to deal with.
		Both Government and the academics believed their own arguments, and will probably be the last to recognise the problem.
		The Government's reform agenda had general staff support in 1989 and was broadly compatible with internal changes made in the public sector during the 1980s.

	Queensland's Worst Government (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		As your article pointed out Queensland's current administrative situation is largely the legacy of 'reforms' made by the Goss administration (because the Borbidge Government had little time to change anything, and the Beattie Government had other goals).
		Queensland's per capita incomes still remain well below the national average (which is a statistic that Queensland governments studiously ignore).
		Government in Queensland seems likely to be constipated / ineffective / inert until there is a serious effort to overcome the legacy of the state's worst government - by restoring a system of professional accountability and credibility to the Public Service.

	MAJOR CHALLENGE FOR GOVERNMENT IN QUEENSLAND
		A report commissioned by Commerce Queensland has revealed the Queensland Government faces a serious deterioration in its Budget position over the next few years unless it draws on the strengths of the private sector.
		Commerce Queensland President, Beatrice Booth said the conclusions drawn in the report indicate State Government would benefit by accepting the major challenge of developing a larger role for the private sector in Queensland, which would, in turn, help the Government overcome the seriously deteriorating budgetary outlook revealed in the report.
		Queenslanders have responded to the greater efficiency and higher quality delivery of the sector, and there is scope for a substantial increase in the proportion of ‘traditional’ Government services provided by the private sector.
