Tourism Planning and Development
Tourism is recognised as a state interest in the State Planning Policy, and the Queensland Government is committed to creating an environment for new investment, and revitalisation and redevelopment of the tourism industry.
The Next Generation Tourism Planning is a guideline for planners in Queensland.
The guideline has been developed in consultation with government, stakeholders and industry and is about enabling the efficient delivery of tourism development.
It provides a strong foundation for the development of the industry to consolidate Queensland as a world leading tourism destination.
