Consultation responses

Consultations allow entities to understand more about the impact of certain decisions, and can also reveal the sentiment of stakeholders towards such decisions and assist entities in identifying who those stakeholders are.

Why do we respond to consultations?

The Government, Parliament, regulators and third party organisations frequently open consultations to seek the views and expert insights of stakeholders to inform decision making,  as well as policy and legislation design, and to ensure that the interests of affected parties are not overlooked.

The society responds to consultations to ensure that psychology is considered as part of these processes.

The input from members to these responses is invaluable as it supports the society in its goal of ensuring that psychology and the perspectives that psychologists have to offer is embedded within laws, guidelines, policies, and decisions.
