NATIONAL REFORMS Sample Clauses

NATIONAL REFORMS. On 20 December 2007, the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) agreed to a partnership between all levels of Government to work with Indigenous communities to achieve the target of closing the gap on Indigenous disadvantage. COAG committed to closing the life expectancy gap within a generation; halving the mortality gap for children under five within a decade; and, halving the reading, writing and numeracy gap within a decade. The Commonwealth’s Implementation Plan in relation to health, has three main elements: addressing the risk factors which lead to chronic disease; improving the management of chronic disease and follow-up care; and expanding the number of Indigenous health workers in the workforce. The five reforms identified below reflect system-level changes to support combined efforts to close the gap in Indigenous health outcomes. A number of these reforms are being pursued through mechanisms outside of the National Partnership Agreement (NPA), while others rely upon joint and/or complementary activity by the Commonwealth and state and territory governments through the NPA. Further detail on specific activities to address national reforms is embedded within the implementation plan.
