- environment;
- combating bribery, bribe solicitation and extortion;
- consumer interests;
- science and technology;
- competition; and

The Australian National Contact Point (AusNCP) promotes the use of the OECD Guidelines and contributes to the resolution of issues relating to their implementation, including facilitating access to conciliation services.
