Is planning for Aboriginal Affairs part of the multicultural policies and services program process?
Measures and strategies developed specifically to address the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are not reported through this program in New South Wales, as this area is in the responsibility of the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs. The Multicultural Policies and Services Program is largely focussed on service delivery that meets the needs of culturally and linguistically diverse communities of immigrant background. However, strategies or initiatives which address cultural diversity of all communities within the state, or cross cultural reconciliation issues between ethnic communities and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities should be included in multicultural plans and reports.
