$23.8B of Australian taxpayer money was wasted at Department of Home Affairs. An ANAO audit found 11 of 14 Home Affairs SES officers responsible for major procurements did not make mandatory conflict of interest declarations, despite overseeing a combined portfolio valued at $23.8B. The department also had 39% of AusTender contract notices filed late or with incorrect data, obstructing public accountability for its spending.
Spread across Australia's 10.8 million households, that's roughly $2,204 per family — enough in total for funding roughly 198 public hospitals for a full year.
Home Affairs oversees $23.8B in contracts. 11 of 14 senior executives didn't bother filing conflict of interest declarations. 39% of their AusTender reports are wrong. F-grade for a reason. @reckonerAU
