Statement of Intent
Media communications strategy
Over the next 12 months we will be looking to implement an altered
communications strategy. An important objective of our strategy is
developing a greater public understanding of the value of law reform
and encouraging a wider public participation in Commission projects
through consultation and submissions processes. Over the next financial
year the Commission will endeavour to progress this objective by
improving:
our public profile as an independent law reform body; and
accessibility and public engagement on specific projects (e.g. r
of regulatory framework for the sale and supply of liquor, review of
privacy law, review of the misuse of drugs).
In particular, the Commission will use the internet as a key tool for
e-consultation by engaging an external provider to work with us on a
number of our projects that have high public interest, particularly the
review of the regulatory framework for the sale and supply of liquor,
and the review of the Misuse of Drugs Act.
Relationships with stakeholders
The Commissionfs approach to law reform is one of collaboration and
consultation. We have made developing good relationships with
stakeholders a priority over the past couple of years and we will continue
to work with Executive Government, groups, organisations and
individuals to build working relationships based on mutual trust and
good communication.
Corporate policies
During 2009/10 the programme of reviewing and updating corporate
policies will continue.
