"In April 2002, the Council of Australian Governments commissioned the Steering Committee to produce a regular report against key indicators of Indigenous disadvantage. This report has an important long-term objective. It is to inform Australian governments about whether policy programs and interventions are achieving positive outcomes for Indigenous people. It has provided a national framework against which inaction may be judged. The areas for action include: Functional and resilient families and communities, Effective environmental health systems, Substance use and misuse, Early childhood development, Early school engagement and performance, and Economic participation and development."
