The Labor government delays releasing the 2023 Briggs review on public sector hiring, citing need for cabinet agreement.
The Labor government has delayed releasing the 2023 Briggs review, a report on public sector board appointments aimed at ending "jobs for mates" practices and improving merit-based hiring.
Commissioned by Senator Katy Gallagher and led by former public service commissioner Lynelle Briggs, the review assessed recruitment transparency, diversity, and ministerial advice processes, with completion in August 2023.
Despite ongoing pressure from opposition parties and a record-breaking parliamentary session, the report remains unpublished due to the need for cabinet consensus.
Gallagher confirmed multiple meetings were held to review recommendations, but no release date has been set.
