Senate Order 15 - Agency Appointments and Vacancies

Senate Order 15 requires all Australian Government departments and agencies to table a list of:

  1. all appointments made by the Government (through Executive Council, Cabinet and ministers) to statutory authorities, executive agencies, advisory boards, government business enterprises and all other Commonwealth bodies. The information is to also include the term of the appointment and renumeration for the position and place of permanent residence by state or territory of the appointee; and
  2. a list of all existing vacancies to be filled by government appointment to statutory authorities, executive agencies, advisory boards, government business enterprises and all other Commonwealth bodies.

The below lists are responses to this Order, as prepared by the National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA). The reporting period, as interpreted by NIAA, commences the day after the previous reporting period ends and extends to two weeks before the list is required to be tabled. This Order must be tabled seven days prior to the commencement of each Senate Estimates period.
