The Core Department of Human Services
The Core Department is a small, flexible organisation that provides leadership to the Child Support Agency (CSA), CRS Australia and the other Human Services Portfolio agencies, including Centrelink, Medicare Australia, Australian Hearing and the HSA Group.
We are focused on:
- achieving a creative, whole-of-government approach to the delivery of social and health related services and
- ensuring that the need for effective and efficient implementation is taken into account in policy design and decision making.
We do this in partnership with the Portfolio agencies, other government departments and the broader community.
Essentially we are about improving government social and health-related services to all Australians.
