National Partnership Agreement on Essential Vaccines

This report, 'National partnership agreement on essential vaccines: performance report for April 2009 - March 2010', assesses the performance of all States and Territories against four benchmarks based on maintaining, and, where posssible, improving immunisation coverage rates. The COAG (Council of Australian Governments) Reform Council has the role of assessing States and Territories and publicly reporting their achievement of performance benchmarks before payments are made by the Commonwealth to reward maintaining and, where possible, improving immunisation coverage rates. This is the council’s first report on the National Partnership on Essential Vaccines.
