Recommendation

- modelled on Perth and Peel @ 3.5 million
- supported by a robust regional development framework (see Recommendation 19 in the Regional development chapter), along with evidence-based identification of strategic infrastructure needs to serve and support population change and economic growth
- refreshed at least every 10 years.
