    The Government's signalling the first list of projects to be fast-tracked, won't be the last

    The Government's signalling the first list of projects to be fast-tracked, won't be the last


    One hundred and 49 projects are being lined up to receive the fast-track treatment.

    It would see the building of up to 55-thousand new homes, 180 kilometres of roads, and 11 mining projects.

    Minister Chris Bishop says the advisory group recommended 342 projects to go through to the next stage - but they didn't have capacity for all.

    He says the highest-quality applications have been selected, and there will be further opportunities for the others.
