Review of Public Sector Board Appointments Processes

Monday, 25 August 2025 House of Representatives

Jim Chalmers

Jim Chalmers Rankin, Australian Labor Party, Treasurer

3:00 pm

To the honourable member again: the point that I am making there is that one of the main things that we asked Lynelle Briggs to focus on was diversity in appointments, and we've got a very good record, on this side of the House, when it comes to diversity in appointments in the Treasury portfolio. For the first time, Treasury, the PC and the Reserve Bank are all led by women, and I thank them for accepting those key appointments.

We've received the Briggs report, as the honourable member rightly points out. We are working through it, in our usual considered and methodical way. We will make the report public in due course, following that careful consideration.
