When CSIRO administers or establishes a public consultation arrangement in the course of developing a specific policy proposal, details of each such arrangement will be included in this section of CSIRO's Information Publication Scheme.

Such arrangements may include:

• public consultation undertaken by CSIRO when making a legislative instrument
• public consultation undertaken by CSIRO in preparing a regulatory impact statement, in accordance with the Best Practice Regulation Handbook
• public consultation that CSIRO decides to undertake for a specific policy development purpose
• public consultation CSIRO has decided to establish to enable members of the public to provide ongoing comment on an existing policy or program that is administered by CSIRO.
