National Land and Water Resources Audit, 2002
Acknowledgments
The Audit Advisory Council acknowledges those who have challenged, shaped, executed and participated in the Audit assessments. In particular, this includes the project teams-this work could not have been completed without their dedication and commitment. As a result understanding of Australia's natural resource issues and access to data and information has been extended well beyond our expectations.
Partnerships have been a key feature of the Audit activities. The in-kind and cash contributions of Commonwealth, State and Territory governments, agricultural industries and research agencies in Audit activities were critical to the success of the Audit Program. The quality, depth and breadth of the Audit Program outcomes measure the value of these partnerships. The Audit Advisory Council wishes to acknowledge their indebtedness to the generosity of all these partners.
The Audit Advisory Council particularly expresses its appreciation to Dr John Radcliffe, Colin Creighton and Warwick McDonald who prepared Australia's Natural Resources: 1997 - 2000 and beyond, the report that synthesises the outcomes of the Audit and a way forward to the future.
