The Tasmanian Advisory Council on Multicultural Affairs (TACMA)

The Tasmanian Advisory Council on Multicultural Affairs (TACMA) was established in 1992 in order to advise the State Government on the development of policies that are responsive to the needs and aspirations of the Tasmanian multicultural community.

The functions of the Council are to:

  • Provide advice to Government on the extent to which services and programs are available to and meet the needs of migrant settlers and multicultural community groups;
  • Identify multicultural issues and provide advice thereon;
  • Assist and promote cooperation between multicultural groups and organisations on matters of common interest; and
  • Advise the Government on particular multicultural issues as referred to by the Council.

The Council which is made up of elected members from various migrant communities across the State meets every 2 months. Inspector Craig Waterhouse by virtue of his appointment as the Tasmania Police Multicultural Liaison Officer is a permanent member of the Council.
