Answer

I am advised that, at this stage, no budget has been identified for consultants to advise on public sector reform on 2026/27 financial year. The Serious Fraud Office has not budgeted for any consultancy work related to public sector reform management. However, it has allocated up to $10,000 for legal advice, should this be required in relation to workforce management matters.
