Providing feedback
The Department of Finance (Finance) is seeking your input on any or all of the proposals that

Your feedback will inform the preparation of rules and guidance materials under the Public
Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 for Commonwealth entities on the
proposed enhanced Commonwealth performance framework.
The rules and guidance will need to be in place by early 2015 to give Commonwealth entities an
appropriate period to comply with the new arrangements.

Finance will be conducting further consultations and workshops with key stakeholders on the
discussion paper throughout September 2014.
The paper puts forward a model for readers to review and comment on. In order to assist
readers in providing feedback, a series of questions are posed throughout the paper seeking
information about possible options for the framework. The questions have also been
consolidated in a feedback form at the back of the discussion paper.
