ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW
The findings showed very strong performance at the level of basic good practice, with only a few areas requiring further work. Many of the proven best practice criteria are met, with some topics requiring further work in the assessment aspects; others requiring additional attention to communications, disclosure, collaboration and stakeholder engagement; and for a number of topics there was insufficient evidence at this point in time to demonstrate the Outcomes criterion was met.
