Australia's Public Service: Balancing Act Amid Cost-Cutting
Update: 2025-12-17
Description
Australias Finance Minister, Katy Gallagher, suggests stable public service size, but some agencies may see staff reductions due to cost-cutting measures. The government added 41,000 public servants since 2022, reaching over 213,000, but now aims to identify 5% lowest-priority spending areas. Minister Gallagher emphasizes fiscal discipline, not overall staff reduction, to manage resources efficiently.
