The Summer 2009-10 National Skin Cancer Awareness Campaign's aim is to educate young Australians about the seriousness of, and their susceptibility to, skin cancer and to increase their adoption of the five key sun protection behaviours (Wearing a hat, staying in the shade, applying sunscreen, wearing sunglasses and sun protective clothing).

The ABHI campaign is an information campaign, largely in cooperation with other states (excl Victoria) which promotes improved public health and reduced incidence of chronic disease. The campaign aims to update public perceptions on lifestyle choices and risk factors leading to obesity and resultant disease. It is anticipated that people will take positive action to be more active and modify their diet, leading to a reduction in instances of diseases. This is the second phase of advertising for the campaign.

The campaign's objective is to inform job seekers and employers, for whom English is not a convenient language, of the change from the Job Network system to Job Services Australia.

Quality in the delivery of the ANAO’s audit services is critical in supporting the integrity of our audit reports and maintaining the confidence of the Parliament and public sector entities. The ANAO corporate plan is the ANAO’s primary planning document. It outlines our purpose; the dynamic environment in which we operate; our commitment to building capability; and the priorities, activities and performance measures by which we will be held to account. The ANAO quality management framework and plan complements the corporate plan. It describes the ANAO’s system of quality management and reflects the ANAO’s responses to identified quality risks.

The ANAO Quality Management Framework is the ANAO’s established system of quality management to provide the Auditor-General with reasonable assurance that the ANAO complies with the ANAO Auditing Standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements, and reports issued by the ANAO are appropriate in the circumstances.

• provides transparency in respect of the processes, policies, and procedures that support each element of the ANAO Quality Management Framework;
• outlines ANAO performance against benchmarks on audit quality indicators; and
• outlines the ANAO’s performance against the quality assurance strategy and deliverables set out in the Quality Management Framework and Plan 2022–23.
