Senior PS staff cuts spark concern from ACOA in Canberra
The Administrative and Clerical Officers Association voiced concern yesterday over proposed senior staff reductions at the Department of Environment, Housing and Community Development. The secretary, Mr Phil O'Brien, said the plan to shrink 19 divisions and two bureaus into six divisions and two bureaus risks delaying second‑division officers and could complicate placements, though there was no dismissal threat. A state meeting was set for today to discuss the issue amid expectations the Public Service Board may approve changes within a month.
