Every entity in the 2025-26 budget papers, with the projects it has under way and the contracts it has published. Click a department to go down a level.

New here? What these numbers mean

The budget is what Queensland plans to spend in one year. It is split between departments, and each department splits its share again between the things it is there to do.

A contract is one deal with one company — to build something, run something, or supply something. The money beside it is what the whole deal is worth, from the day it starts to the day it ends. A ten-year deal shows its ten-year price, not one year of it.

So never add those two together. One is a single year of planned spending. The other is the lifetime value of deals, some signed years ago and running for decades. FOCUp keeps them apart for that reason, and so should you when you quote them.

Every figure here was published by the government itself, and every row links back to the page it came from. If FOCUp does not have something, it says so rather than filling the gap.

What Queensland publishes

3 of 4 levels below this government

Every government is shown with the same four levels below it, in the same order, so the differences you see are differences in what governments publish — not in how FOCUp lays out a page. Where a level is empty, the reason is the sentence beside it. They are numbered 2 to 5 because the government itself is level 1 — the whole chain is here.

Two published totals, and the gap between them

109 entities, expenses added up, 2025-26
$268,662,977,000

FOCUp has no ingested budget for Queensland to set beside it yet.

Each row here is one published income statement, not one department. Queensland publishes up to three for the same department — Controlled, Administered and Reporting Entity — and the Reporting Entity figure is not the sum of the other two, so FOCUp loads each as published instead of combining them. The two totals are prepared on different bases and are not expected to match. Neither is FOCUp's: the budget total is the one on the budget page, which remains the source of truth for what this government spends.

Largest contracts

Each row is one deal the government signed. The money shown is what the whole deal is worth from the day it starts to the day it ends — not what was spent this year. That is why these can add up to more than a yearly budget, and why FOCUp never adds the two together.

Covers notices published 28 February 2003 to 27 November 2028. $16.2B of the total — 31.4% — is in deals lasting longer than one year, the last of them ending 6 December 2039.
