The Parliamentary Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security (PJCIS) today tabled its report for its annual review of administration and expenditure of six intelligence agencies..
In the review, covering the 2023-24 reporting period the Committee is satisfied that the agencies are overseeing their administrative functions and administering outcomes and outputs effectively.
In reviewing the expenditure of the six intelligence agencies the Committee is satisfied with the conduct of agencies, their efforts to achieve value-for-money outcomes for the Australian taxpayer, and their appropriate management of budget and expenditure over the reporting period.
The PJCIS Chair, Senator Raff Ciccone, said "The Committee's annual review of intelligence agencies' administration and expenditure is an important oversight component of Australia's National Intelligence Community. After in depth classified hearings and review of classified submissions the Committee found the intelligence agencies to be working in an effective and efficient manner."
Further information on the inquiry can be obtained from the Committee's website.
