Australia has not had a national urban policy since the Rudd government. A troika of Liberal PMs followed. Tony Abbott wasn't interested. Malcolm Turnbull didn't quite live up to the hype but delivered cross-governmental City Deals and the Smart Cities and Suburbs Program. Scott Morrison at best presided over a business-as-usual approach lacking any resolve, urgency or innovation.
