(a-f) Information relating to the number of employees in each agency is contained in annual reports.
Annual reporting obligations are specified in the
Public Sector Management Act 1994
(PSMA)
, Financial Management Act 2006
, Treasurer's Instructions, other legislation, Cabinet decisions, other Government policy statements and Public Sector Commission Circulars.  This includes the number of employees in each entity.
Departments, sub-departments and statutory authorities are required by the
Financial Management Act 2006
under Part 5 to prepare annual reports for Parliament, which is an important aspect in ensuring financial and performance accountability to Parliament.
Other agencies and government trading enterprises that are not subject to the
Financial Management Act 2006
are required to prepare annual reports for Parliament in accordance with their enabling legislation.
Annual reports for departments, agencies and government trading enterprises are publically available through each entity's website.
The Public Sector Commission also publishes a
State of the Sector Report
which includes the profile and structure of the Western Australian public sector. This is tabled in Parliament and is available on the Public Sector Commission website.
