and safe handling, transport and disposal of asbestos waste. This should encompass asbestos awareness and education as well as infrastructure. There appears to be a particular need in: areas of the NT not serviced by the four main NT landfills remote inland areas of SA the east coast of Tasmania the western and less populous of eastern Victoria the east and far north of WA (assuming that the GeoScience database is complete for WA). The agency liaise with DoE to obtain ongoing access to annual data on asbestos tonnages reported via Basel Convention submissions. The agency work with DoE and relevant jurisdictional agencies to develop preferred methods for collating asbestos waste data for reporting via Basel Convention submissions.
