Collaborating with stakeholders
Good advice and great policy are informed by a diverse range of voices, views and perspectives. They are strengthened through collaboration with those individuals, organisations or sectors that could either be affected by the policy or decision, or could assist in helping to achieve a successful outcome. To develop informed and impactful advice and effective policies, the department collaborates with a range of stakeholders (Figure 1).
In addition, PM&C is committed to Pillar 2 of the APS Reform agenda: The APS puts people and business at the centre of policy and services.
PM&C will continue to work in genuine partnership with the community to solve problems and co-design the best solutions to improve the lives of all Australians.
