Design and Implementation of the Defence Export Strategy
Auditor-General Report No.6 2020-21
Description:... "The Australian Government has stated that 'a strong, resilient and internationally competitive Australian defence industry is essential to our national security.'5 The government's Defence Export Strategy is intended to implement key recommendations made by the Parliament's Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade in its 2015 report on Australian defence industry and exports, and sets out an ambitious policy agenda to be delivered by 2028, including establishing Australia as one of the top ten global defence exporters. This audit provides the Parliament with independent assurance on Defence's design process for the strategy and its implementation to date, with a particular focus on the initiatives government expected to be delivered by the end of 2018 under Phase 1 of the strategy, and by the end of 2019 under Phase 2."--Website.
