Question

what does the local state and federal government provide us with.

Answer 1

didn't study up on homework, huh?

Answer 2

State governments are 'oldest' in the sense that they derive from the original British colonial set-up (although of course all our governments came into being at federation and hence are the same age). But state has continuity from the earliest times. So most basic services: roads, hospitals, schools, police and so on are state government responsibilities. When Australia became a country and not just a British colony, they needed to add a Federal government to do what the British used to do- the big-picture stuff- declare war, raise taxes, maintain an army and control policies that have to be nationally consistent: such as immigration, foreign affairs. Local government is an administrative branch that deals with things like the zoning of land (for use as residential, industrial or commercial), local roads, garbage collection.

Australia's system is both a compromise and a constant 'work in progress', and there is some overlap in responsibilities, especially between state and federal governments. Policy on rivers and water is an area of dispute at the moment, for example. Disputes are ultimately resolved by the High Court.
