Submission: Victorian Draft Adaptation Action Plans 2027-31
Submission | Kate Simmonds | 15 July 2026
IGCC strongly supports Victoria’s use of sector-based adaptation planning. For investors, these Plans help provide confidence that regions will maintain economic resilience and therefore are a safe place for investment. While IGCC is broadly supportive of the actions identified, we encourage the Victorian Government to strengthen the Plans by improving the specificity and accountability of actions, increasing focus on adaptation finance, prioritising regulation and planning reform, and developing longer-term adaptation pathways beyond 2031.
