I welcome the greater profile afforded to issues of most concern to our Aboriginal communities - and especially the targets focused on early years and development that will contribute significantly to Aboriginal wellbeing in years to come.

Chair, Interim South Australian Aboriginal Advisory Council

Regionalising The Plan

The Update Team of community leaders who oversaw community consultation on the Plan in 2006 recommended that the Plan be `regionalised'. What this means is that each region will focus on those targets that are a local priority and develop their own regional ‘sub-plans’ about how to achieve results in those target areas. This was seen as preferable to having regional targets (e.g. on crime rates and infrastructures) as was the case in the original Plan.

The Government agreed and made a small allocation of additional resources in the 2007 State Budget to support it. The Office for Regional Affairs appointed staff to work with the country regions to, among other things, help with regionalising the Plan. In the metropolitan areas the Department of Families and Communities will play a similar role. The success of this process lies in community leadership and involvement and, on the resource side, the better use of existing funds, assets, facilities and programs to help achieve those targets that matter most within each region.
