This Direction applies to The Cabinet Office, Premier’s Department and Treasury when engaging with the integrity agencies concerning their financial arrangements and management practices.
Section 2.5(2) of the Government Sector Finance Act 2018 (GSF Act) provides that a separate GSF agency (and the accountable authority for the agency and its government officers) are each not required to comply with a provision of a Treasurer’s Direction if the accountable authority considers that the requirement is not consistent with the exercise of the statutory functions of the agency.
Integrity agencies are defined as separate GSF agencies under the GSF Act.
