On 18 October 2019, the Australian Public Service Commission (APSC) issued guidance for reporting gifts and benefits received and retained for personal use, by agency heads and their immediate families.
The Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA) is required to publish a gifts and benefits register with details of gifts and benefits the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) or their immediate family have accepted and retained for personal use where the gift is valued over $100 AUD (excluding GST) during each quarterly reporting period.
Agencies are not required to publish details of gifts and benefits that are accepted and retained for Commonwealth use.
