NSP 2019-2023 - Mid-term Progress Report
This report examines mid-term progress in implementing the National Strategic Plan for Asbestos Awareness and Management 2019–2023 (Asbestos National Strategic Plan) based on information provided by the Commonwealth, state and territory governments for 2020-2021 and research undertaken by the Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency (ASEA).
Progress against all nine targets is assessed in this report. It also highlights the challenges identi ed in meeting some targets, and where incomplete or inconsistent data has made an accurate assessment difficult.
The report acknowledges that progress has been interrupted due to the impact of the COVID pandemic which has competed for government resources that may have been allocated to asbestos awareness and management.
