Haemovigilance Advisory Committee

The Haemovigilance Advisory Committee (HAC) is an advisory committee for Governments, with advice provided to the Jurisdictional Blood Committee (JBC) and Health and Aged Care Ministers as required through the National Blood Authority (NBA). The HAC comprises experts in transfusion medicine, science, nursing, and epidemiology from both the private and public health care sectors. This group provides advice to governments on adverse event reporting originating from health service organisations and on national transfusion safety priorities. The committee also oversees the national reporting and governance frameworks.
