Chief Executive Officer

 

10 September 2014

The Hon Andrew Robb AO MP
Minister for Trade and Investment
Parliament House
Canberra ACT 2600

Dear Minister

I am pleased to present to you the Australian Trade Commission (Austrade) Annual Report for the financial year 2013–14.

This report has been prepared in accordance with section 92 of the Australian Trade Commission Act 1985. Subsection 92(1) of the Act requires the Chief Executive Officer to, as soon as practicable after 30 June in each financial year, prepare and give to the Minister a report on the Commission’s operations during that financial year.

I certify that during the 2013–14 reporting period, Austrade complied with the required standards set out under the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines. The agency assessed and modified its fraud control plan; had in place fraud prevention, detection and reporting strategies; and was adequately prepared to investigate and recover the proceeds of any identified fraudulent activities.

In presenting this annual report, I would like to acknowledge the contribution made by my colleagues in Austrade.

Yours sincerely

Bruce Gosper
Chief Executive Officer
