Significant progress was made on the review with follow up meetings scheduled in the new year. Bio-Mathematical Models To Manage Fatigue And Monitoring Hours of Work Guidelines UpdateWork on these two Guidelines commenced in December with kick off meetings held for both Development Groups.

EVENTS AND PROGRAMS RISSB At AusRAILThis week RISSB employees from around the country converged on Brisbane for the ARA's AusRAIL conference and exhibition.
At AusRAIL exhibition stand 77-78, we were overwhelmed by the number of visitors we had and the quality of the questions on our current and future work plan, the work plan submission process, the national rolling stock register, membership and training. Thank you to those of you who took the time to stop and say hello.
In addition to meeting people at the RISSB stand and attending conference plenary sessions, RISSB CEO Damien White took to the exhibition theatre stage to talk about barriers to improved safety and productivity and Jesse Baker participated in a panel discussion on priority rail safety issues.
