Policy statements are adopted, or later amended, on the unanimous vote of the RSPCA Australia Board after consultation with member Societies, and following the recommendation of the Policy Review Committee (PRC) or other Working Group as agreed by the Board. Compliance with policy statements is binding on all member Societies.

Position papers are adopted, or amended, on the majority vote of the RSPCA Australia Board if they concern issues related to existing, adopted policies, or on the unanimous vote of the Board if the position is outside adopted policies.
