Australia’s National Resources Statement

This statement was published under the previous Australian Government.

The National Resources Statement sets out the government’s policy and long-term reform agenda for the Australian resources sector.

It includes a 5 point action plan to:

deliver the most globally attractive and competitive investment destination for resources projects
open up new industries and resources regions
better focus the sector’s innovation, research and development on long-term, sectoral growth
develop and retain the world’s best workforce
deliver better outcomes for stronger and more engaged communities

This strategic long-term approach aims to position Australia’s resources sector as the world’s most advanced, innovative and successful.
