Report Title:	Request for Tender: Review of Possible Impacts of Nanotechnology on Australia's Regulatory Frameworks
Report ID:	81
Date:	8/1/2006
Report Type:	Government Contract
URL:	[Innovation_-_Nanotechnology.pdf]
Country:	Australia
Organization:	Australian Government Department of Industry, Tourism and Resources
Summary:	The National Nanotechnology Strategy Taskforce was established to ensure that Australia utilizes nanotechnology in a socially responsible manner. The taskforce was charged to investigate whether the current Australian regulatory framework is well-suited to managing new nanomaterials. The taskforce sought a consulting firm to report whether nanomaterials are within the scope of current Australian regulations, to develop an assessment of whether nanomaterials outside of these regulations pose significant risk, and to characterize the nature, severity, and most effective management of any such risk. This document is the official government request which solicited bids from consultants for producing the report.
