Interior reorganization begins with new top-level post
A major reorganization of the Department of the Interior began with ads for a first assistant secretary in the Commonwealth Gazette. The plan splits the Management Services and Property Division, creates a Division of Management Services, elevates ACT Services to full branches, and contemplates a Commercial Practices and Tourism unit to oversee the Consumer Affairs Ordinance and Canberra tourism. A marketing section would link Fyshwick market, ACT milk authority, and planned egg and bread marketing authorities. A proposed “sin branch” would run a new ACT liquor ordinance, possibly bring the Totalisator Agency Board under it, and include dog racing if allowed.
