Lodging a submission

Where possible, submissions should be lodged electronically via email, preferably in Microsoft Word or other text based formats.

Submissions should be forwarded to the Renewable Energy Sub Group Secretariat by 30 July 2008 at: ret@climatechange.gov.au

Guidelines for submissions

All submissions, including the names of the submitters, will be made publicly available on this website after the close of submissions and may be used by the Department of Climate Change in subsequent publications unless the submitter requests that the submission, or part of it, be treated as confidential.

Where only part of a submission is confidential, it would assist the Department if the submitting party could provide a different version of the submission, with confidential material deleted, to be placed on this website.

It is requested that submitters provide contact details with their submission. As these personal details (apart from the submitter's name) will be treated confidentially, please provide them on a separate page (cover page) to the submission. If submitters require that their name remain confidential as well, they must make a specific request, at the time of lodging their submission, that their name not be made public.

The Department reserves the right not to consider late submissions.

Submissions will be acknowledged with a receipt via email (or post if email is not available).
