The Strategic Review of Indigenous Expenditure, prepared by the federal Department of Finance, finds that despite efforts by successive Commonwealth, state and territory governments, progress against Aboriginal disadvantage has been ''mixed at best''. Outcomes have varied between ''disappointing'' and ''appalling''.

The federal government spends $3.5 billion a year on indigenous programs but the report finds this ''major investment, maintained over many years, has yielded dismally poor returns''. The report was submitted in February 2010 when Kevin Rudd was prime minister.
