Information about the Inquiry
On 26 June the Senate
referred to its Standing Committee on Education, Employment and Workplace
Relations an inquiry into the capacity of universities and other research
and training institutions to meet current and future demand for climate
change professionals, and possible measures to assist understanding of
climate change in the Asia-Pacific region, including provision of training
and skills assistance.
The committee has had to further postpone report on this inquiry
because of pressure of work resulting from urgent legislation. The Senate
has agreed to a motion moved on 11 March 2009 to extend the reporting date
till 17 September 2009.
Accordingly the submission deadline has been extended to 26 June 2009.
