Insight and commentary from our national Government team in Australia
Australia | Publication | March 2020
Welcome to the second edition of The Commonwealth Quarterly
March brings with it Autumn, its shorter days and cooler nights, and our second issue of The Commonwealth Quarterly.
It’s no less promising than the first, with Kevin Arkwright and Jeffrey Goldberger on good faith; Nicki Milionis on trends in workplace health and safety; Peter Mulligan and Lauren Holz on privacy; Alexandra Holland on public interest certificates; and Catherine Whitby on why Commonwealth agencies should take data management seriously.
So grab a coffee, find a cozy spot, settle down and enjoy the read – and if you have any thoughts or suggestions for future issues, please let us know.
