Premier and Cabinet
It is assumed that the member is referring to employees engaged under s68 of the Public Sector Management Act 1994. There are no employees engaged by the Department of the Premier and Cabinet under this means outside of ministerial offices. Details of those officers engaged in ministerial offices are provided to Parliament in the ministerial resourcing report tabled in the Legislative Assembly on 15 June 2017.
