Former Labor Premier Steve Brack and former Nationals Deputy Premier Pat McNamara are teaming up as part of an RMIT initiative called Balance Victoria.

Mr Bracks told Ross and John fast rail was a key to true decentralisation.

He conceded the big ideas were “20- to 30-year” prospects, but said the benefits would be big.
