Supporting reporting on Closing the Gap

The information repository1 to support reporting on Closing the Gap is being developed in stages.

The latest update to the dashboard was on 6 March 2024, and included a new year of data for eight targets and nine supporting indicators.

A further update to the dashboard and the release of the fourth Annual Data Compilation Report is scheduled for July 2024. That dashboard update will include reporting for the first time on a further 10 supporting indicators.

About

The Closing the Gap Information Repository comes from the National Agreement on Closing the Gap (the Agreement). The purpose of the information repository is to inform reporting on progress in Closing the Gap.

The information repository includes a dashboard and Annual Data Compilation Report:

  • The dashboard provides the most up-to-date information available on the targets and indicators in the Agreement. The data will be available in different formats including visual.
  • The Annual Data Compilation Report provides a point-in-time snapshot of the dashboard material.

Information about the targets and indicators will be added over time and will include reporting against agreed Priority Reform and socio-economic outcome targets and indicators.

Further, supporting material will be added over time to build on existing capability in accessing and interpreting the data reported.

The information repository is produced by the Productivity Commission.
