Feedback from Robin Stewart-Crompton, 5 November 2009 I greatly appreciated the opportunity to contribute to the Visions conference, which was most impressive for its organisation (obviously, much hard work was involved), the participants and the range of matters that were covered in the sessions. I was really pleased to be able to meet so many people who had keen insights into current and future OHS issues and benefited from my interaction with them. The SIA should be most proud of the event and feel very confident about the future of the Qld/NT Division.
