Authorisation
The FRSC workshop on 12 February 2019, held in Melbourne, identified improved intelligence as a medium to longer term activity.
Status
In September 2019, the FRSC agreed on an integrated process to gather, collate, analyse and share intelligence.
A data intelligence working group was established and identified several challenges to improving intelligence in the system, including barriers to data sharing and resource limitations. These issues are being considered through the data governance framework project. Further work to improve intelligence will be considered once these issues are resolved.
