The new strategy dictates what the department will focus on when it comes to road vehicle standards compliance

The federal Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and the Arts has announced it has released a new Compliance and Enforcement Strategy 2023-2026 for road vehicle standards.

The new strategy will outline how the department plans to conduct its compliance and enforcement activities under the Road Vehicles Standards legislation.

Among the important information on the department’s scope are specific focus areas such as:

  • Approval holders participating in the concessional RAV entry pathway – approved Model Report holders, registered automotive workshops and authorised vehicle verifiers
  • Large or established vehicle manufacturer and their compliance with their vehicle type approval conditions
  • Entities that continue operating without appropriate RVS approvals post June 30 this year

The new strategy informs the community and industry, as well as regulatory agencies, about its compliance and enforcement focus areas for the next three years.
