This audit examined the cost of securing, planning for and then withdrawing from the 2026 Commonwealth Games and the quality of agencies' advice to the government.
There is no methodology in place to evaluate progress against the Framework’s goals, objectives and targets. The Framework indicated that an evaluation methodology would be developed by 2019.

In late 2024, DTP engaged an external provider to develop an evaluation methodology for measuring outcomes in precincts (including Fishermans Bend). This work is in its early stages.
