Policy under review

MMP funding model under review

The Resource Extraction Levy — previously published as MMP’s primary funding mechanism for the MMA programme — has been withdrawn from the platform pending a broader review of how the MMA build is funded.

The MMA programme — water, energy, AI compute, freight, passenger maglev, manufacturing, cities, defence, space — remains the core MMP commitment. What is under review is the specific funding pathway that delivers it.

Funding the MMA build is a question of method, not ambition. Pathways under review include international capital partnership, sovereign debt structured against the corridor’s own revenue, project-level finance, and the existing Commonwealth budget reorganised around a smaller, leaner government. The headline policy commitments — transparency, integrity, cost cutting, implementation of efficiencies, and the MMA build itself — are unchanged.

When the review concludes, the funding model will be published in full on this page and integrated across the platform.
