Anne-Maree Tiernan BA (Australian National University) BComm (Hons) (Griffith University) Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2004 Abstract This thesis traces the development of the ministerial staffing system in Australian Commonwealth government from 1972 to the present. It explores four aspects of its contemporary operations that are potentially problematic. These are: the accountability of ministerial staff, their conduct and behaviour, the adequacy of current arrangements for managing and controlling the staff, and their fit within a Westminster-style political system. In the thirty years since its formal introduction by the Whitlam government, the ministerial staffing system has evolved to become a powerful new political institution within the Australian core executive. Its growing importance is reflected in the significant growth in ministerial staff numbers, in their increasing seniority and status, and in the progressive expansion of their role and influence. There is now broad acceptance that ministerial staff play necessary and legitimate roles, assisting overloaded ministers to cope with the unrelenting demands of their jobs. However, recent controversies involving ministerial staff indicate that concerns persist about their accountability, about their role and conduct, and about their impact on the system of advice and support to ministers and prime ministers.

1 6 July 2017 the Secretary House of Representatives Standing
6 July 2017 The Secretary House of Representatives Standing Committee on Health, Aged Care and Sport Parliament House CANBERRA ACT 2600 Dear Secretary, INQUIRY INTO THE USE AND MARKETING OF ELECTORINIC CIGARETTES AND PERSONAL VAPORISERS IN AUSTRAIALIA As a public policy consultant and analyst, who has long had a professional interest in promoting good policy and sensible regulation of smoking, alcohol and other forms of personal choice involving health risks, I welcome this Inquiry and the decision of the Minister for Health to give the Committee this reference. While I will already be known to some members of the Committee, a brief outline of my background and expertise is in Appendix A. My comments on the vaping issue, and the Inquiry’s Terms of Reference, are based on my experience and expertise as a long-time public policy professional with extensive political experience. I am not a clinician, scientist or consumer. I do not claim expertise or competence to discuss the validity or otherwise of the science. I also have never smoked or vaped. As a public policy and political professional, however, who has worked in the Australian health policy space for over 20 years, I should say at the outset I have never been involved with an issue that has generated such personal vitriol, anger, ad hominem attacks and complete disrespect for professional integrity and reputations as e-cigarettes and vaping. That includes the virulent attacks on the 2014 GP co-payment proposal, for which I became a leading public and media advocate at personal cost. There is too much smoke and heat, and too little light, in the vaping debate.

The Supervised Injecting Facilities Debate DISCUSSION PAPERS
Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government DISCUSSION PAPERS POLICY AND GOVERNANCE rug policy in Australia: The supervised injecting D facilities debate Praveena Gunaratnam 05-2 Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY http://apseg.anu.edu.au © Praveena Gunaratnam 2005 The Policy and Governance Program at the Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government publishes a series of Discussion Papers on a range of policy issues, including issues of political institutions and institutional design, accountability and public sector management, and the relationship between political and economic reform. The Discussion Papers disseminate research quickly in order to generate comments and suggestions for revision or improvement. Since they often represent preliminary or incomplete work, citation and use of such a paper should take account of its provisional character. The opinions contained in the series are those of the authors, and not those of the Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government at The Australian National University. Praveena Gunaratnam ([email protected]) was, at the time of writing, completing a Masters in Public Policy degree specialising in Policy Analysis with the Asia Pacific School of Economics and Government, the Australian National University. She is currently a Policy Officer with the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing. Abstract Many theories have been developed to explain the influence of different groups in policy making. Some focus on public opinion, claiming that especially in issues of high salience, public opinion will play a decisive role in determining policy directions. Other theories claim interest groups (including professionals) and politicians are more critical in shaping the agenda and the solutions which are seen as viable in addressing a particular problem.
