Regional Development Policy Framework: An Action Agenda for Regional Development

Regional Western Australia will continue to be a key contributor to the nation's well being. The future success of rural and regional areas will depend on attracting investors and visitors, encouraging new residents to settle, and enabling existing residents to remain.
