Dr Samuel Mann

 We have put considerable effort into reviewing the research support role of NACCQ. One outcome of this a recognition that we have a series of publications. Each of these meets a different need (and has a convenient acronym).
Bulletin (BACIT)
This is a new vehicle for publishing material for which refereed journal may not be appropriate. It is hoped that BACIT can develop to include a series of columns and have an invited opinion piece from industry people.
Editor: Stephen Corich, with Colin Boswell, Malcolm Wieck, Michael Veerhart
Published on web but formatted as journal (issues, page numbers etc).
Publication dates: Feb, May, Aug, Nov
