Our stakeholders

We work with a wide range of stakeholders to achieve a shared national outcome of a safer Australia, as shown in Figure 1.3. Our stakeholders include:

  • Australian Government—National law enforcement and intelligence agencies, national security and border security agencies, national regulators, national service delivery agencies and national policy development agencies.
  • States and territories—State and territory law enforcement and intelligence agencies, and state and territory regulators and courts.
  • International agencies—International law enforcement and intelligence agencies.
  • Accredited organisations—Australian Government agencies, private sector businesses, not-for-profit organisations and screening units for working with children or vulnerable people who access the National Police Checking Service.
  • Private sector and community—Private industry, research bodies and academia, and the community.

Due to the collaborative nature of our work, our stakeholder relationships are critical to achieving our purpose. Our stakeholders are important to us, so we seek their feedback regularly. Their feedback contributes to our performance measurement and informs our ongoing engagement. Stakeholder research findings for 2018–19 are summarised in the management and accountability section.
