Olympic plan set to be unveiled

THE state government will announce its Delivery Plan for the 2032 Brisbane Olympics and Paralympics on March 25, alongside the final report from the Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority.

More than 5,000 submissions were considered in the authority’s review, with its findings set to be handed to the government on March 8.

Following consultations with the International Olympic Committee, the Organising Committee, local government, and the Commonwealth, Cabinet will approve the plan on March 24.

Deputy Premier Jarrod Bleijie said the plan would put Queensland on the right track to make the most of this once-in-a-generation opportunity. “With a Delivery Plan guided by the experts, Queenslanders won’t be embarrassed on the world stage,” he said.

“The Crisafulli Government will deliver generational infrastructure, a 20-year tourism plan and an Olympics and Paralympic Games all Queenslanders will be proud of.”
