Local industry and workforce development

A key consideration for the NT Government is local and indigenous employment and a strong and vibrant local business community. To achieve this, all major projects are strongly encouraged to have an approved Territory benefit plan in accordance with the Territory benefit policy.

Any major project where the NT Government makes either a direct financial investment and / or an indirect quantifiable contribution beyond facilitation under this framework will be required to have an approved Territory benefit plan.

The NT Government will work with proponents to develop this plan.
