Information relevant to assessing performance against each of the indicators was assembled by both Australian and Queensland government agencies and provided to the independent assessors. The assessors sought extra information from relevant research papers, workshops with managing agencies, semi-structured interviews with 21 topic experts, and other source documents where appropriate. The assessment was based on available documents and advice provided before the end of October 2023. Where necessary, information was updated after October 2023 with the consent of the independent assessors, but only where new information involved a substantial change in management.
A small number of errors were detected in the 2019 assessment, the grade and trend assessment presented here is based on the corrected 2019 results.11
