UPDATE: 2019-20 Natural Therapies Review
17th August 2020
Dear Ms Jalland,
The Department has been advised by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) that work to support the Review has continued during the COVID-19 pandemic as much of the work of the Natural Therapies Working Committee (NTWC) and evidence reviewers can be done remotely.
The Department intends to invite key stakeholders, including the Reflexology Association of Australia, to participate via teleconference in an update on the Natural Therapies Review 2019-20. The update is expected to be conducted via teleconference in the near future when changes to the Review timelines are confirmed in consultation with the NHMRC. Information is available on the Department’s website in relation to the Natural Therapies Review 2019-20. This includes information on the progress of the Review, which will be updated once the stakeholder update is held.
Thank you for your ongoing interest in the Review.
Kind regards
