To help raise awareness of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in the community, encourage national consistency in the use of ADR, and to better inform users of ADR about good practice, the Attorney-General has requested NADRAC to prepare:
- a statement of key national ADR principles, and
- a supporting guide for users of ADR services.
The guide will explain the key principles of ADR, the differences between facilitative, advisory and determinative ADR processes and what to expect when using different ADR processes.
NADRAC is to report on this reference by 31 March 2011.
