Public scrutiny on Government Spending: Why we are calling for greater transparency

June 23, 2009 - PRLog -- ‘Ute-gate’ increases public scrutiny on Government Spending

Melbourne, Australia – 24 June, 2009


The global financial crisis has increased public scrutiny on Government spending, calling for greater transparency and a measurable ROI. Lessons learned locally throughout the ‘ute-gate’ scandal certainly illustrate this.

The public is calling for clear cut policies and programs which increase the visibility of Government spending. This is not only to ensure bang for our buck, but also to highlight the clear results from Rudd’s multi-billion dollar deficit.

IQPC’s Government Performance Monitoring & Accountability will take a measured approach to addressing these issues within a structured and interactive environment. The forum will also a focus on the measurability of the ‘softer’ Government goals – environment and social issues for instance.

Government Performance Monitoring & Accountability has a diverse range of Government officials from; Attorney-General’s Dept, Dept of Communities, Centrelink, and State Services Agency, VIC.
