Australian Public Service Commissioner – Inquiries – Agency Heads

JS made this Freedom of Information request to Australian Public Service Commission

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

The request was successful.

Dear Australian Public Service Commission,

The principles of good public administration, embodied in the APS Values and Employment Principles, lie at the heart of the democratic process and the confidence the public has in the way public servants exercise authority when meeting government objectives. Good public administration is a protection against inefficiency and poor performance.

The Australian Public Service Commissioner has a function to inquire, in accordance with section 41(and 41A) of the Public Service Act, into alleged breaches of the Code of Conduct by Agency Heads.

I wish to know the commencement dates of the 3 most recent inquiries. Under FOI I seek access to documents that contain the date upon which each of the 3 most recent inquiries under section 41(41A) of the Public Service Act commenced. I limit the scope to one document is respect of each inquiry.

Yours faithfully,

JS

FOI, Australian Public Service Commission
