National Alternative Dispute Resolution Advisory Council

The National Alternative Dispute Resolution Advisory Council (NADRAC) was an Australian independent body that provided policy advice about alternative dispute resolution (ADR) to the Attorney-General of Australia. NADRAC was established in October 1995[1] and concluded in late 2013.[2] NADRAC's functions were laid down by its charter.[3]

NADRAC was an independent non-statutory body, with funding provided through the Australian Government Attorney-General's Department. It provided expert policy advice to the Attorney-General on the development of ADR and promoted the use of alternative dispute resolution.

The body concluded its work following the government decision to simplify and streamline government business. NADRAC made substantial contributions to the development and promotion of ADR in Australia, publishing reports and papers on the topic.[1]

gollark: Apple *does* do good stuff - their ARM designs are really great - but oh potatOS the pricing.
gollark: I mean, phones have decent CPUs now ("decent", I mean), most people just use emails and stuff with no real need for anything fancy.
gollark: Well, most people would.
