Answer

In my capacity as Prime Minister, I am the responsible minister for the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC). I am advised that for the current financial year, DPMC has not budgeted nor spent funding for consultants in relation to the Public Service transformation announced by the Minister of Finance and Minister for Public Service and Digitalising Government on 19 May 2026.
