Advisory committees are a mechanism that can support the Director in effectively managing the marine parks by advising on implementation of this management plan and community and park user views, identifying knowledge gaps and assessing the impact of different management interventions.
The Director will establish a non-statutory South-east Marine Parks Advisory Committee, with membership available to a wide range of individuals interested and engaged in the ongoing management of the South-east Network. The Director will regularly review the function of this advisory committee during the life of this plan and may put in place different arrangements to better engage stakeholders in management.
3.4           Desired outcomes and management programs

Desired outcomes state what the Director aims to accomplish over the life of this management plan. They are a specific and measurable link between the management plan objectives and management actions. The desired outcomes in this plan are set at a high level due to the diversity of the 14 marine parks in the South-east Network. Over time, more specific and detailed desired outcomes may be developed at park and/or zone levels outside this plan.
To achieve each desired outcome, actions across a range of management programs will be required. Similarly, effective delivery of a management program can contribute to multiple desired outcomes.
Subject to resource availability, the Director will implement 4 management programs and associated actions to achieve desired outcomes (Table 3.1).
The management programs are:

      * First Nations connections and partnerships  The First Nations connections and partnerships program will manage Sea Country in partnership with First Nations people. It will be informed by the extent of Sea Country in the South-east Network, the aspirations of First Nations people, and the capacity of organisations to participate in marine park management. For some parks, where there is limited understanding of First Nations connections to Sea Country, program actions will seek to improve understanding of these connections and aspirations for Sea Country. For other parks, where Sea Country connections are clearer, actions will seek to support First Nations people's engagement with management, recognising that Traditional Owners have interests in all aspects
        of management. Feedback from Traditional Owners has shaped actions across all
        4 programs.

      * Protection and resilience  The protection and resilience program will provide for ecologically sustainable use of the marine parks through transparent assessment and authorisations mechanisms, to enforce the rules set out in this plan and to manage and minimise the impacts of pressures on park values. The program may include actions to support ecosystem adaptation and resilience.

      * Science and management effectiveness  The science and management effectiveness program will provide the necessary scientific knowledge to inform
