Shadow Report on Closing the Gap - 2010

The Steering Committee of the Close the Gap Campaign coalition of peak Indigenous and non Indigenous health organisations has produced a Shadow Report that provides the perspectives of the Indigenous and non-Indigenous health sector on the Government's progress in closing the gap. The AMA is a key member of that Steering Committee. The Shadow Report shows that the Government has not developed a long-term, comprehensive national plan to close the gap and that it falls short when it comes to developing a genuine partnership with Indigenous people and their representative organisations.
