Answer

Crown Law and the Parliamentary Counsel Office have not engaged any consultants to advise on public sector reform management or similar, since 27 November 2023. However, separate from advice on public sector reform, Crown Law has spent $49,791 on consultancy in the period specified, to advise on a proposal for an IT specific restructure within the office.
