Answer

I am advised that between 27 November 2023 and 31 August 2026, Police had 208 redundancies, which amounted to $12,817,643.93. Between 27 November 2023 and 2 September 2026, the Serious Fraud Office did not pay any redundancy compensation to staff. The Serious Fraud Office initiated one change process, resulting in 11 roles being disestablished and four permanent staff being made redundant. This is also my response to Written Parliamentary Question 39060 (2026).
