Section 2 - Sugar Research and Development Corporation

The roles and responsibilities of members of
the Board, their code of conduct and SRDC
policies and procedures are detailed in the
SRDC’s Business Process Management System
(BPMS). This system is available via an internal
intranet site and all SRDC employees and
directors are required to view the BPMS at

Board activities and industry involvement
During 2010–2011, the Board commissioned two
reviews: an annual review of investment clusters
that was incorporated into the RDCs review of
research investment; and an analysis of potential
areas for future investment.
Throughout the year, members took a keen
interest in activities of the Corporation and
participated in a number of in-house and
regional seminars and workshops. They visited
the Burdekin growing area and Townsville
research establishments and represented the
SRDC during industry events and as members
on selection panels for capacity building projects
and SRDC scholarships.
