A national survey to measure progress towards its Asbestos National Strategic Plan targets — evaluating knowledge, attitudes, behaviours and information needs regarding asbestos risks in 2022. This factsheet outlines the national key findings.

The Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency has released its 2021–22 annual report for its activities to 30 June 2022.

This report examines mid-term progress in implementing the National Strategic Plan for Asbestos Awareness and Management 2019–2023. Progress against all 9 targets is assessed in this report. It also highlights the challenges identified in meeting some targets, and where incomplete or inconsistent data has made an accurate assessment difficult.
