Full description
This series comprises Cabinet submissions relating to senior appointments from March 1994 to 1999. From at least 1982 the appointment of senior government officers, appointments to statutory positions and significant boards, councils and advisory bodies and appointments of Members of Parliament to Parliamentary Committees were considered by Cabinet. Where an appointment needed to be made by the Governor in Council, the Cabinet would make a recommendation to the Executive Council.Most appointments considered by Cabinet were the subject of a Cabinet Submission. Apart from differences in systems of arrangement which are discussed below, these submissions were of a similar format and purpose to all other Cabinet submissions. For more information about Cabinet submissions see VPRS 11944 Cabinet and Committee Submissions.
Cabinet submissions regarding appointments generally included the name, qualifications and experience of the recommended appointee. Where there was more than one applicant or nominee, details of all were given, then the reasons why one was recommended.
The outcome of Cabinet deliberations regarding appointments was recorded in VPRS 11948 Cabinet Record.
