The previous Plan has served our organisation well by identifying issues impacting on the Great Southern and recognising priority projects in a number of locations across the region. This update has been informed by current State and Local Government strategic planning, a priority project review and considers some of the bigger picture trends facing the region. While many priorities are unchanged, our organisation remains alert to internal and external influences to our social and natural environment and aims to be responsive to emerging issues and megatrends such as the carbon economy, climate change, industry innovation and the growing economies of Asia. These trends will challenge every level of government and the community. However, opportunities within and beyond our region will continue to evolve and we must adapt to those changes as we plan for a vibrant and sustainable future. I commend our key stakeholders and partners for sharing their local knowledge and experiences from across the region, especially those who have so willingly contributed to the review process. Our regular Committee and community consultation in the region highlights the importance of local decision making and demonstrates how working together will achieve a better outcome for regional development in WA’s Great Southern. This high level document recognises the strengths of Federal, State and Local Government operations in the region and captures the community’s needs and aspirations into an integrated development strategy for the region. The priorities and opportunities highlighted will assist our Committee in determining its own Business Planning and taking appropriate action to deliver program outcomes and contribute significant progress on shared project initiatives. It is a privilege working with the dedicated RDA Great Southern Committee and staff, who I believe can take pride in delivering real benefits to the region in just a few short years. As we enter another three year contract with the Australian Government, I look forward to enriching partnerships leveraging opportunities, and collaborating with other stakeholders in serving our community and growing a stronger Great Southern.
