Accountability for progress

The Public Sector Governance Council (council) and Leadership Board (board) will oversee implementation of the action plans.

The council is responsible for many aspects of public sector management, including monitoring our workforce’s performance, recognising excellence and innovation, fostering cultures of integrity and supporting sector collaboration. The council’s input and oversight throughout the life of the strategy will be vital.

The council is chaired by the Director-General of the Department of the Premier and Cabinet.

The board is comprised of all departmental chief executives and is the primary mechanism for the collaborative, whole of sector work envisioned in the Act.

The PSC will be responsible for managing the program of work. This includes monitoring progress on actions, supporting the delivery of projects scoped as part of the action plan(s), and providing updates to the council and the board.

The work delivered under this strategy will complement the PSC’s other critical, ongoing work aimed at promoting the Act’s requirements for a public sector which is responsive, fair, culturally capable, and high-performing and apolitical.
