Ministerial Councils

A number of Commonwealth-State Ministerial Councils provide forums for member governments to exchange information and experience and develop coordinated policies in relation to national and international environment and conservation issues. These include the:

National Environment Protection Council
Natural Resource Management Council;
Environment Protection and Heritage Council; and
Primary Industries Ministerial Council.

From 2001, the Australian and New Zealand Environment Conservation Council (ANZECC) is no longer an active Ministerial Council. For further information about ANZECC including reports, communiques and publications, visit the ANZECC Archive.
