Strategic Plan

Following the Government’s announcement on 23 June 2005 that the functions of ASDA would be assumed by the new ASADA, pending the establishment of ASADA on 14 March 2006, the 2001-05 ASDA Strategic Plan was extended for a further year.

This original plan was approved by the then Minister for Tourism and Sport in 2001.

The ASDA 2001–05 Strategic Plan is at Appendix M (Adobe PDF,144kb).

2005–06 ASDA highlights

• Providing an effective and successful transition from ASDA to ASADA; while ensuring the continuation of ASDA’s key operational activities. Significant work was undertaken in developing the ASADA legislative framework, strategic plan and organisational structure.
• Implementation of Doping Control to detect human Growth Hormone (hGH).
• The Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games Anti-Doping Program. This program saw ASDA coordinate Out-of-Competition Doping Control on international athletes before they arrived in Melbourne. An innovative pre-games education program was introduced involving Athlete Anti- Doping Interviews. This program was aimed at reducing cases of inadvertent doping.
• Hosting the inaugural 2006 Prohibited List Workshop in July 2005. This program brought together key anti-doping experts and stakeholders including the Australian Olympic Committee (AOC), Australian Sports Commission (ASC), the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS), the National Measurement Institute (NMI), the ASDMAC and the Department of Communication Information Technology and the Arts (DCITA) to inform the Australian Government’s response to the 2006 Prohibited List.
• Production of the Anti-Doping DVD and distribution to 71 Commonwealth Games Associations as part of the Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games education strategy.
