The Morrison government, through the leadership of the Prime Minister, is bringing together COAG and the Coalition of Peaks to deliver the new partnership agreement.

We are taking the time to ensure Indigenous Australians are empowered and in a genuine position to make informed decisions. We must be careful not to adopt a deficit mindset, because on almost every measure we have made progress.
