Abstract
Social planning, to which the Australian Assistance Plan was committed, demands strong administrative infrastructure support. This paper argues that an understanding of the purpose of social planning was lacking in that infrastructure; that the method of implementation by the Social Welfare Commission and the Department of Social Security produced only uncertainty in the minds of regional councils; and that, in the result, the initially stated goals of the plan were compromised.
