Progress Report - Alice Springs System Black recommendation implementation

The Commission has published the seventh Progress Report on the implementation of recommendations from the independent investigation of the Alice Springs System Black incident on 13 October 2019.

Following the Commission’s independent investigation, the Territory Government published its response. The Northern Territory Government Response accepted 14 of the Commission’s recommendations in whole and one in-principle.

Consistent with the Government response, on 8 December 2019, the Treasurer at the time wrote to the Commission requesting the Commission publish six-monthly reports for a period of two years on the implementation of the recommendations of the independent review and other major incident reports.

While the reporting of progress requested by the Treasurer (at the time) is now complete, following a request from the former Minister for Essential Services, the Commission will continue to publish six-monthly reports until all outstanding Alice Springs System Black actions are complete.
