7. Non-financial performance
AICIS has reported its non-financial performance for 2023-24 against criteria included in the 2023-24 Health Portfolio Budget Statements in the Department of Health Annual Report, including a performance report from the Executive Director as required under section 146 of the Industrial Chemicals Act 2019 (Appendix 4: Report on the operation of the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme for 2023-24), page 178-195).
In accordance with the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013, the Department of Health and Aged Care’s Corporate Plan sets out the performance measures that our Scheme uses to determine whether it is achieving its purpose. AICIS’s measure is aligned to the outcomes, program and key activity presented in our Portfolio Budget Statements.
The department ensured assessment quality was maintained through internal peer review processes and seeking feedback from applicants, introducers and other stakeholders prior to finalising each report. Publication of completed assessments and evaluations on the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme website assists Commonwealth, state, and territory governments to implement risk management controls, and facilitates the safe use of chemicals by workers and the public.
