Australian Government response to the Senate Standing Committee on Economics report: The Australian Manufacturing Industry

Date published:
24 May 2024

Introduction

The Economics References Committee prepared a report on the matter of the Australian manufacturing industry. 

The committee published its report in February 2022

The Australian Government tabled this response in the Senate on 23 May 2024. 

Government response

The government notes recommendations 1-19 made by the committee in its report. However, given the passage of time since this report was tabled, a substantive government response to these recommendations is no longer appropriate. The government is committed to a Future Made in Australia and rebuilding manufacturing capability.
