AnswerView source ↗

Thank you, member.
(1) The
Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development was formed on 1 July
2017. As it was the merger of three agencies, there were opportunities for
efficiencies in some areas, such as corporate services.
Since the time of the creation of the department, 181 employees have resigned
and a further 175 employees have accepted voluntary redundancies.
(2) I table the list.
