Summary
Chronically deprived communities need a coordinated programme of investment in all aspects of life in these areas, including education, health, the built environment, policing and childcare.
Our proposals to rebuild communities marred by decades of poverty, neglect and under-investment represent a cross-departmental 'Marshall Plan' for what we call Fair Deal Communities.
This programme can be delivered through the National Development Plan by prioritising and ring-fencing investment in these areas in a determined, co-ordinated, whole-of-government approach.
