The 2007 update of South Australia’s Strategic Plan contains a ‘developmental list’ of areas that may warrant inclusion of a specific target in the plan but where no appropriate data are currently available to measure progress. The areas were listed as being subject to further consideration to identify if a suitable, viable target should be developed for inclusion in a future version of the plan.

The following principles apply:

The Plan will have a maximum of 100 targets in total (that is, a new target from the developmental list should generally displace an existing target)

Any target must fit the ‘SMART’ criteria (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time bound).

• SA’s Strategic Plan Audit Committee – technical advice on data issues
• Community Engagement Board – determining the relative order of priority of developmental list areas and ensuring the appropriate ‘community’ people are involved on the working groups
