Consumer Statement review
Stakeholders will be involved at all stages of the review and will be invited to participate in consultation and engagement activities as they arise.
A summary of submissions received during public and targeted consultation and engagement processes will be published in the Completed consultation activities tab. All submissions will be included in the summary unless NHMRC determines otherwise, for example where a submission is out of scope.
You can view ongoing and upcoming consultation and engagement activities in the relevant sections below.
Consultation and engagement activities
NHMRC and the Consumers Health Forum of Australia (CHF) have released a draft Statement, and are inviting all interested Stakeholders to provide feedback prior to its finalisation.
A series of Australia-wide stakeholder engagement sessions will commence in July 2025 to collect stakeholder feedback on the draft revised Statement. These will be facilitated by The Kids Research Institute Australia and will include in-person and online sessions. Please visit The Kids Research Institute Australia website to view the workshop schedule and register your interest.
Stakeholders who are unable to attend any of the sessions or would like to make an online submission directly to us, may do so through the NHMRC Consultation Hub, which will be available soon.
At the completion of the stakeholder engagement sessions, the draft Statement will be finalised.
The draft Statement is available in the downloads section below.
