Summary

Establishes Tourism Australia, which will amalgamate the functions of the Australian Tourist Commission, See Australia, the Tourism Forecasting Council and the Bureau of Tourism Research, plus a new unit, Tourism Events Australia. Tourism Australia will be responsible for international and domestic tourism marketing and research. Also contains a regulation-making power.

We acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians of country throughout Australia and acknowledge their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We pay our respects to the people, the cultures and the elders past, present and emerging.
