Albanese Government's Board Appointments Review
Update: 2025-12-01
Description
The Albanese government has unveiled a new Australian Government Appointments Framework, following a report by Lynelle Briggs on public sector board appointments. The report, dubbed the jobs for mates review, criticizes the lack of checks and balances in the current system, often leading to patronage and nepotism. The new framework, while not implementing all of Briggs recommendations, aims to be fit for purpose, emphasizing merit and good governance. It replaces the 2008 Australian Government Merit and Transparency Policy.
