(a – e) Departments and agencies conduct staff surveys on a range of topics. It is not considered a reasonable or appropriate use of Government resources to compile a breakdown across the entire history of each agency. These surveys are commonly included in the relevant agencies Annual Report.
If the Member has a particular question about a specific survey, I will endeavour to answer it.
