Report on agency appointments

We report on our appointments and vacancies listings. We’re required to do this by Senate Order 15—Departmental and agency appointments and vacancies.

We report on all:

  • appointments made by the government to Commonwealth bodies
  • existing vacancies to be filled by government appointment

Commonwealth bodies include statutory authorities, executive agencies, advisory boards and government business enterprises. We report all appointments in our portfolio.

Reports

On 1 July 2022 we became the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry. Before this we were the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. You can read reports issued by the current and former department below. We will publish new reports as they are available.
