Welcome to the March edition of the Public law report for 2013.
We are a quarter of the way through 2013, and less than six months away from the next Federal Election, an appropriate time to consider pre-election contracting dilemmas for government agencies on page 2.
In this edition, we also explore the Commonwealth Government's engagement with the not-for-profit sector, extenuating circumstances that allow councils to avoid the tendering process, why it's important to share, and how whistleblowing can be rewarding.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
