Getting Australia's Health on Track

A new report "Getting Australia’s Health on Track" presents 10 priority policy actions that, together, will help get Australia on track to reach the 2025 targets and significantly reduce preventable illness and disability in the population. It has been produced by a national collaboration of Australia’s leading chronic disease experts and organisations.

Its focus is upon interventions to reduce the consumption of sugar, salt and alcohol, and to tackle junk food marketing. It also recommends actions to reduce smoking, particularly by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and by people with mental illness.
