National Woolclasser Consultative Group

AWEX is pleased to advise that 10 Australian Woolclassers have accepted invitations from AWEX to be members of a National Woolclasser Consultative Group (NWCG).

The NWCG is an advisory group convened by AWEX to advise, or be consulted on, matters relating to administration, standards, prioritisation, and the delivery of services to Woolclassers and/or woolclassing in Australia.

This group comprises Woolclassers from all wool producing states. All are experienced and practicing Classers.  There are 3 women and 7 men with ages ranging from mid twenties to mid fifties.

The NWCG first met on the 5th March 2009 and is currently meeting every 6 weeks.  The main focus for the NWCG at this time is the development/review of the 2010-2012 Woolclasser’s Code of Practice, due for release in October 2009.
