Sport Integrity Australia will combine the operations of the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority, the National Integrity of Sport Unit of the Department of Heath, and the integrity programs of Sport Australia. The agency will focus on countering prohibited substances and methods, child abuse in sporting environments, unfair manipulation of games, and failures to protect those involved.[1]
