The concept of the Australian National Data Service was proposed as a key initiative within the investment plan for Platforms for Collaboration as part of the National Collaboration Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS). It had been scoped within that plan as a result of extensive consultations across the sector.
The ANDS Technical Working Group was established by the then Department of Education, Science and Training to develop a more detailed scoping and implementation proposal for ANDS following the acceptance of the ANDS investment concepts by NCRIS (in April 2007). A sector wide representative forum was convened to consider progress with ANDS.
The ANDS Forum held on 2 May 2007 confirmed all major aspects of the ANDS concept and agreed that a technical working party should be formed to develop a more detailed proposal.
