Position Statements

The College develops Position Statements on issues of importance to our members, our strategic direction and our vision. Approved by ACRRM’s peak representative body, the College Council, they provide clarification on College views and the rationale underlying them.

ACRRM Position Statements are developed with the College Council, in consultation with College working groups and members. Through the College Council, ACRRM also endorses appropriate statements from external organisations.
