Overview
The Australian Government is reviewing Australia's measurement laws.
The Measurement Law Review aims to identify any aspects of Australia's measurement framework that can be modernised, streamlined or simplified to better meet the needs of a modern economy.
The Scope of Australia's Measurement Laws represents the first of a series of public consultations to be undertaken in 2018. The discussion paper is seeking your views on what should and should not be addressed by the legislative framework underpinning Australia's measurement system.
The insights gained through this consultation will help create a simple and modern measurement framework that can meet the measurement challenges of today and opportunities of tomorrow.
Feedback to this paper will be used to inform the development of policy options for Australia’s future measurement laws.
