Government Reporting

Introduction

As of December 2023, there are 1,334 government entities reportable to the Australian Government Organisations Register. This includes: 191 “principal” entities, including non-corporate Commonwealth entities (such as the 20 cabinet departments), corporate Commonwealth entities, and Commonwealth companies.

Government (Public servant) wages rise to $232b at fastest pace in 15 years. Employee expenses are one of the fastest growing areas of government spending, rising 8 per cent over the 2023-24 financial year, according to figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Thursday.

The extra outlays helped propel public sector spending to a record 27.3 per cent of GDP in the June quarter, with some economists blaming the state and federal governments for prolonging inflation.

The Albanese government was one of the major drivers of the rise in public sector wages, recording 10 per cent more employee expenses for a total of $37.3 billion last financial year. (Financial Review November 7 2024).

It is the role of very Australian citizen to monitor and report government actions.  The proper, transparent, and lawful conduct of government agencies is a crucial aspect of a democratic society, enabling citizens to hold their leaders accountable and ensure transparency in governance. Whether it’s uncovering misconduct, inefficiency, or outright corruption, the process of reporting can empower the public to influence positive change and foster a culture of accountability.
