NADRAC was an independent non-statutory body, with funding provided through the Australian Government Attorney-General's Department. It provided expert policy advice to the Attorney-General on the development of ADR and promoted the use of alternative dispute resolution.
The body concluded its work following the government decision to simplify and streamline government business. NADRAC made substantial contributions to the development and promotion of ADR in Australia, publishing reports and papers on the topic.
