"The State Government has begun a new ‘green’ era in the way it builds and fits out public buildings, Public Works Minister Robert Schwarten said today. Mr Schwarten said the Green Building Council of Australia’s 5-star Green Star excellence rating was now the standard for new government offices. Having buildings constructed or refurbished to these high-rating green specifications is now Public Works Department policy,” Mr Schwarten said."
