Advocacy is an important part of our day-to-day activities whether it is meeting government ministers, representing the organisation at an international level, making submissions, releasing policy documents or participating in government working parties.
Making submissions gives us the opportunity to put forward a clear and united voice on behalf of our members.
Members and staff undertaking advocacy activities ensure members’ views are heard at the highest levels.
We value your ideas and welcome your participation in policy development and submissions to government.
Please contact the Secretariat if you would like to discuss any issues.
