asked the Special Minister of State for the Public Service and Integrity, in writing, on 24 February 2011:

In respect of the Advisory Group on Reform of Australian Government Administration's report Ahead of the Game: Blueprint for the reform of Australian Government administration (March 2010, page 44), has the Policy Implementation Network been formed; if so, has it met to consider lessons learned from the Home Insulation Program, the Green Loans Program and the Building the Education Revolution program; if so, what was the outcome.

I am advised that the answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

Planning for the formation of the APS Implementation Network is underway and is being progressed in conjunction with a broader capability development agenda. It is expected that the first meeting of the Network will be held in May 2011.
