The Office for Ageing (OFA) provides strategic advice to the Director-General and Minister for Ageing on the implications of the ageing of the population and the needs of older people in the community.
The OFA works in collaboration with DADHC regions and other central office branches, and works with other agencies to build awareness and promote appropriate policies and services for older people. The OFA also leads and supports cross-agency work on major issues.
