I’d like to acknowledge the significant contribution made by the Anti-Doping Rule Violation Panel over the past 10 years. The Anti-Doping Rule Violation Panel was established on 1 January 2010 to consider whether there had been possible anti-doping rule violations by an athlete or athlete support person and to make assertions in relation to those violations. The Anti-Doping Rule Violation Panel’s contribution to the integrity of sport cannot be underestimated and I thank them for their service.

I'd also like to acknowledge and thank our partners and friends who have assisted us in our pursuit of clean, fair sport. As we transition to Sport Integrity Australia, I look forward to continuing these relationships and building new networks.

Finally, and most importantly, I would like to acknowledge and thank former and current staff for their contributions and commitment during the life of the agency. Our recognition as a global leader in anti-doping lies directly with the passion ASADA staff members have for sport and their tireless drive to achieve clean, fair sport for all our athletes.

I look forward to the launch of Sport Integrity Australia and building an agency in partnership with sports, to protect sport together.
