Aims of the Policy. This policy framework aims to build upon the information sharing that is currently occurring between agencies. It recognises that the community is demanding seamless services from agencies, and expects positive outcomes from government spending. Structured sharing of important, and often sensitive, information is frequently needed to achieve improved community outcomes, benefits to clients, and better coordinated services. As government agencies have a duty of care to all clients, especially children, information held by other agencies can be crucial to safeguarding the welfare and safety of clients. The aims of information sharing between government agencies are therefore to: Improve Community Outcomes Many problems experienced by the community do not have a simple or single solution. By working collaboratively to tackle complex issues, agencies can achieve better outcomes for the community. Some examples of issues which require an across government approach include: • prevention and early intervention in crime; • assistance in areas of health or family development; • maximising community safety; • addressing the underlying causes leading to disadvantage experienced by some groups in the community; and • improving educational outcomes for young people. Improve Client Outcomes Many individuals and families experience multifaceted disadvantage. An across-government approach can help agencies provide better services to them and assist the agencies to exercise their duty of care. Some examples include assisting families who may be experiencing multiple problems such as: • housing issues; • children who are not coping at school; and • adolescent/parent conflict.
