This amendment results from the representation support model ceasing at the end of June 2008.  Therefore the existing measure has been deleted and a new measure identified.  Under the new broader TradeConnect arrangement ACT exporters and intending exporters will be able to access advisory and business matching services from established providers on a fee for service basis, partly offset by government program funding.
