Episode Details

The Australian National Audit Office faces budget cuts, with funding increasing by a mere 1.8 million dollars, barely keeping pace with inflation. This underfunding comes at a time when the office is expected to lose staff and has been running at a deficit for eight years. The agencys ability to investigate waste and mismanagement is threatened, with critics arguing that the current funding model is flawed and undermines the offices independence. The debate over protecting these institutions from political pressure is ongoing, with the true cost of accountability still being debated.
