Submission: NRAS complexity review
Independent review of complexity in the National Registration and Accreditation Scheme
The association provided feedback to the open consultation on the Independent review of complexity in the National Registration and Accreditation Scheme. The consultation process is a phased approach. Our response to the open consultation is a part of phase three of the review of the National Scheme. The final report will be handed to the Minister in April 2025, with further opportunities for consultation later in 2024.
