This list of Australian government entities is of Australian Ministers, government departments, bureaus and commissions, authorities, corporations and other entities, which are grouped into a number of areas of portfolio responsibility. Each portfolio is led by one or more government ministers who are members of the Parliament of Australia, appointed by the Governor-General of Australia on the advice of the Prime Minister. [1]
As of July 2020 [update], the agencies are principally grouped into 14 principal departments, [2] [3] each led by a secretary, director-general, or similarly-titled executive officer and comprising a number of portfolios covering specific policy areas across the department and allocated statutory authorities, trading enterprises, boards, councils and other public bodies. Agencies have varying levels of operational autonomy, and deliver one or more of frontline public services, administrative functions and law enforcement. Some are structured as for-profit corporations. Where there are multiple portfolios within a department, the Secretary may be accountable to a number of ministers.
As of May 2022 [update], the current Government is led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, the leader of the Australian Labor Party.
The Australian Government is organised into a group of portfolios overseen by one or more ministers. Each portfolio consists of at least one Department of State, headed by a Secretary, and a series of executive agencies, statutory corporations, or similar bodies. Many departments have discrete areas or branches within them that operate independently of the rest of the department. These are listed only where they have a Wikipedia page of their own.
The Department of Finance's Flipchart and List lists entities organised under the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 into three categories:
As of the Administrative Arrangements Order made on 13 October 2022, the Australian Government is organised into the following Departments of State (in alphabetical order): [4]
There are also three departments of the Parliamentary Service, which assist Parliament rather than the executive. These departments are directly accountable to the Parliament itself, through the presiding officers of both houses.
The Social Services portfolio includes the Services Australia executive agency, which also administers programs and schemes on behalf of other government departments and portfolios.
