Input sought for manufacturing roadmaps

The federal government is seeking input in the development of roadmaps for priority areas identified in its Modern Manufacturing Strategy.

The Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources is seeking views on what the key strengths, opportunities and solutions are to grow manufacturing in in the following areas:

• resources technology and critical minerals processing
• food and beverage
• medical products
• recycling and clean energy
• defence
• space

The Department said: “We have been working with Industry to understand the needs of Australian manufacturing.

“We now want to hear what you think the key strengths, opportunities and solutions to grow manufacturing in the National Manufacturing Priority areas you work in.

“We are seeking input from businesses or business associations relevant to any of the Priorities. Your insights through this consultation will help inform the road map process.”

The department noted that not all Australian manufacturing fits squarely into just one priority, so multiple responses are welcome.
