There is clear need for a new strategic plan for the ACPF - it is a large sector geographically and economically, it engages many jurisdictions and license holders, it is complex sector, and its current planning platforms are out of date. The ability of license holders researchers agencies and broader stakeholders to manage this complex sector falls squarely in the hands of the ACPF. Without clear endorsement of and support for, this organisation over the next 5 to 10 years, ACPF will be unable to lead the sector to achieve triple bottom line outcomes or to establish and motivate appropriate RD&E investment in productivity or environmental and social outcomes.
