Public service agencies and joint operational agreements - Public service agencies - Interdepartmental ventures

32: Purposes

You could also call this:

"Why government departments work together on shared tasks and services"

When you look at interdepartmental ventures, you see they have two main purposes. The first purpose is to deliver services or carry out tasks that two or more government departments are responsible for. This helps these departments work together on things they are both involved in.

You also find that interdepartmental ventures aim to help develop and put into action policies that relate to these services or tasks. This means the departments can work together to make sure their policies are consistent and effective. By doing this, they can better achieve their goals and responsibilities.
