Cabinet Office Reform Process

Midway through 2007, the Cabinet office underwent a major overhaul. On the recommendations of the Government Reform Commission, headed by former Premier Wayne Goss, the Government agreed to expand the office and equip it with the right mix of skills to take a more assertive role in public policy development and coordination in South Australia. The former Office of the Executive Committee of Cabinet was merged with Cabinet Office, and the staffing complement expanded through secondments from each of the other government agencies.
