New NCC Review Underway – Mutual Recognition

The National Competition Council (the Council) has been asked to undertake an independent evaluation to support the Review of Australia’s Mutual Recognition Schemes for Workers (the Review), overseen by the Council on Federal Financial Relations (CFFR). The Council will be supported by a temporary Review Secretariat appointed by CFFR and hosted in the Australian Treasury.

The Review will provide findings to support the removal of unnecessary barriers to a single national market for workers by examining the operation and effectiveness of existing mutual recognition arrangements.

The Council is seeking feedback from licensed workers, businesses, consumers, professional bodies, industry representatives, and unions. A call for submissions paper has been prepared and is now available on the Australian Treasury Consultation hub: https://consult.treasury.gov.au/c2026-747762

Submissions close on 31 March 2026. Questions related to the Review should be addressed to NationalCompetitionPolicy@treasury.gov.au .
