22829 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Attorney-General: On what date, if at all, did the Minister first receive advice regarding the role reductions being made as part of savings made in Budget 2026 for votes the Minister is responsible for, if any, and from whom, broken down by agency, department, Crown entity, company, or other organisation for which the Minister is responsible?

Hon Chris Bishop: The Parliamentary Counsel Office is not part of Budget 2026-driven workforce reduction programmes, therefore no role reductions have been identified as a Budget 2026 measure.
