The plan has three goals and eight focus areas which were informed by people in government, industry and the community sector during 2017, as well as recent machinery of government changes. In particular, the creation of the Department of Communities (from the former entities dealing with housing, child protection and family support, disability services, communities, regional services reform and others) will help drive more person-centred and place-based outcomes, with its property development role helping to ensure that housing is accessible to those who need it, where they need it.
