Strategic plan to 2029

The MPCB has developed a strategic plan for the next three years. The Strategic Plan to 2029 (PDF, 237.33 KB) will contribute to achieving the regulator's goal for a safe, sustainable and innovative mining, extractive and petroleum industry in NSW.

During this period, the MPCB will pursue three strategic objectives:

monitor and review competence standards and assessment
monitor and oversight of Maintenance of Competence scheme
proactive engagement with stakeholders.

An action plan has been developed to carry out the strategies, in consultation with relevant stakeholders. The MPCB will regularly review the progress of the plan and report to the Minister on an annual basis.
