State Plan - A New Direction for NSW

The State Plan, A New Direction for NSW is about shaping the State's future.

It reflects the hopes and goals of people across NSW and the priorities for the public sector.

The State Plan is the foundation document for my commitment to delivering better services. It is the first step in changing the culture of government in NSW.

The Plan sets out clear targets for improved outcomes and service delivery to which the community will hold us accountable.

The State Plan website is designed to help the community track our progress. It will be updated as new performance information becomes available.

I am focused on delivering the targets and I know that Ministers and Chief Executive Offices of government agencies are equally focused on delivering their targets.

The targets are ambitious but I believe the public sector and our partners have the skills, professionalism and commitment to deliver these priorities.

I look forward to continuing to deliver better services to the people of NSW.

Morris Iemma
Premier of NSW
