Premier’s foreword Melbourne is far more than just its city centre. Our suburbs, and all the people who’ve chosen to make their home there, are integral to our state’s success. It means that as our population and our suburbs continue to grow, governments at every level must continue to keep pace. It’s why we’ve established a Suburban Development portfolio – focused on making sure governments, businesses and communities work together across Melbourne’s suburbs. To support this work – and to make sure we’re listening to the people who know these communities best – we’ve established six new Metropolitan Partnerships. Covering the breadth of Melbourne, these partnerships encompass the Southern, Eastern, Northern, Western, Inner South- East and Inner Metro regions. This work is further guided by our Five Year Jobs, Services and Infrastructure Plans for Melbourne’s regions. We see plans as the foundation for greater engagement and collaboration between the Victorian Government and local communities. Together, we can ensure that as Melbourne grows, our infrastructure - our roads, transport, schools and hospitals - meet the needs of local residents. And together, we can make our suburbs even stronger. The Hon Daniel Andrews MP Premier of Victoria 2 Inner South-East Metro Region Five Year Plan
