Closing the Gap

‘E-Brief’ tackles the question of strengthening Aboriginal cultural attachment in terms of language and customs, and whether that is a legitimate pathway to closing the gap.

The Parliament of NSW will often produce research papers in relation to legislation before the Parliament and the State issue policies.

These Background Papers and Briefing Papers contain detailed information surrounding a particular issue, containing many useful stats, links and references for the public and parliamentarians alike.

The Parliamentary Library for Members prepares these papers, in the form of an 'E-Bulletin.' Archived papers can also be found online at:
