The Queensland Government has released new procurement commitments to the social services sector, acknowledging the advocacy of organisations such as the Queensland Council of Social Service (QCOSS) and the Australian Services Union (ASU) in delivering community support.

The Best Practice Industry Conditions for Social Services Procurement provide social service providers with the appropriate contractual arrangements to ensure vulnerable Queenslanders continue to get the care they need.

Amid national and international economic pressures and an increasingly complex environment for social services organisations, the Queensland Government is partnering strategically with the sector to ensure long-term sustainability. Together, we are collaborating to meet the growing demand for services and to improve outcomes for Queenslanders.

DSPs ensure agencies consider the Act’s human rights and service delivery principles, and the government’s policies for people with disability. DSPs aim to improve access to services across government.
