@richard..... You are so right, Senator Patterson is so great at exposing shortcomings and holding corrupt Senators/Ministers to account, and bringing the PS State/Federal and Senate to task towards honesty and transparency. I resigned from the PS (State) a few years ago. The wrong under qualified, ineffectual people of such self importance and absolute arrogance, are put in management/ hierarchy positions, and they are so inept in their daily dealings of their positions. It is nepotism and patronage in its highest forms. This is so dangerous on so many levels. Good employees are being muzzled and constrained, injured, and threatened by upper levels. The State and Federal Departments need bl..dy big enemas from the highest levels down. They need to get rid of the corrupt, deceitful, dishonest elements from the PM position down. Watching Senate in progress, some Minister's are so corrupt throwing their underling Senators under the bus to save themselves is so heinous. It's repugnant.

Firstly congratulations Senator Patterson on your persistence and surgical like intellect- keep up the great work (and the pressure!) One of the basic tenets of introducing an organisational change - ie ministerial instruction #99 for both the minister and the secretary is to firstly assess and plan its implementation (things like resourcing impacts spring to mind - just saying) and then post implementation to monitor the outcome ie “is this change doing what we thought- if not why not etc” From the answers delivered it appears this was not done at all - management 101! Is this really the standard of the skill set of both the minister and the secretary?? Additionally in any other workplace if a management failure directly contributed to the death of another individual there would be legal consequences for those failures. No doubt there is some legislative ‘ get out of jail free card’ that will prevent any real scrutiny to be applied.

It's almost as if the Senator elected by popular vote is more competent than the "senior leaders" who rose to the very top of the public service based on their "merit"?
The people if Australia are expected to take responsible for their decisions and actions but not the Govt.
What a load of rubbish, no one willing to take responsibility only big salaries. Keep at them Senator Patterson, I don’t know how you keep so calm when questioning them they are imbeciles.
What a bunch of arse protectors.
Homeaffairs is on a downward projection bring back a real leader get rid off mama Smurf
If she is head of the department assessing criminals - it is scary!!!!
She should resign as a result of her acknowledged incompetence! She is obviously not up to the job!
Good old Canberra bureaucrats. Hang around long enough and you fall into a job. Qualified or not.
From what i hear Giles is gone by end of financial year. Hes got the chance to clean up the mess and then he's leaving
How much are you getting paid? Minister: $250 K per year.... what have learnt from the position. Minister: to say I wasn't informed.
Wow what a joke
Someone was murdered! She should resign in disgrace.
Incompetent Public Servant .Would not get a job anywhere else.
The Minister looks like he’s just realised he’s got 3 incompetents at the helm!
What a pathetically awkward and unconvincing leadership display by the Secretary of this Department.....hopeless, and on big money. She should go.
what do these public servants get paid for.Surely they should be advising the minister .This is just total bulls….
We are not responsible!!!!
Lots of buses and throwing under said buses. This is how BIG govt works.
Forensic accounting seems to be the main focus here?
Ladies and gentlemen, you are watching the alleged best the Australian Public Service has. These folk command six-figure salaries, and undoubtedly, a fifth grader could do better
Lying for the minister is not a good look

Don't be silly, they are completely apolitical!!!😅
“It’s a lesson for [her]” - someone gets murdered, and she just thinks she’s learned HER lesson and just move on? What loss has SHE incurred, what PENALTY???!!!
OMG, APS has failed miserably and systematically under this Labour government. Shame! Shame! Shame!
So many unnecessary positions. Positions without consequence apparently.
you'd think with her Arts Bach she would be a gun as Secretary of the Department of Home Affairs
Amazing how many times those being questioned say, the person best to answer this is not here, or we will need to take that question on notice. They never give an honest answer.
What do they do all day no one knows

I think she must go on holiday all year!
As Judge Judy would say " Umm, is not an answer! "
The Dept of Home Affairs has a staff of around 13.5 - 14 thousand and a 9.5 billion dollar budget, yet cannot organise someone / anyone to keep an eye on what the AAT is up to..seriously!!
Does anyone in labor ever take responsibility? Next time you get a speeding fine try your defense i didnt have the speed signs bought to my attention
If I make a mistake 1/1000th of this gravity- there disciplinary action, I will undoubtedly lose my job- and probably have my reputation tarnished for the rest of my career- in a job that affects only one patients safety at a time, not millions of peoples' safety. There really should be no wiggle room for mistakes in her position. It is unforgivable- and absolutely atrocious that it takes the studious prying that Senator Paterson undertakes in order to unearth it.
This is a great script for a comedy show !
They all get paid very well to do the job, anyone else would be terminated, the secretary has to take responsibility and resign !
Are these people competent in their position??? I don’t think so, this is disgusting how much are they wasting of our money?
Firstly congratulations Senator Patterson on your persistence and surgical like intellect- keep up the great work (and the pressure!) One of the basic tenets of introducing an organisational change - ie ministerial instruction #99 for both the minister and the secretary is to firstly assess and plan its implementation (things like resourcing impacts spring to mind - just saying) and then post implementation to monitor the outcome ie “is this change doing what we thought- if not why not etc” From the answers delivered it appears this was not done at all - management 101! Is this really the standard of the skill set of both the minister and the secretary?? Additionally in any other workplace if a management failure directly contributed to the death of another individual there would be legal consequences for those failures. No doubt there is some legislative ‘ get out of jail free card’ that will prevent any real scrutiny to be applied.
This Secretary foster made the recommendations in the Brittany Higgins case. Incompetence is kind , this is shocking disruption of senate hearing ,
James ,tap pete on the shoulder & prommiss if elected ,70% of these people can find new jobs ,Twitter works &inman garnt ,DOESNT !
