The National Security Committee (NSC), also known as the National Security Committee of Cabinet,[1] is the peak decision-making body for national security and major foreign policy matters in the Australian Government. It is a committee of the Cabinet of Australia, though decisions of the NSC do not require the endorsement of the Cabinet itself.[2][3][4]
