| Abstract
|
:
|
"This monograph by Anne Tiernan and Jennifer Menzies represents a substantial review of the rules and conventions applying in the lead-up to elections. Standards of behaviour at these times, including processes of decision-making, are important to our democratic system. They protect the apolitical and professional nature of the public service ensuring it is well placed to serve whichever party wins the ensuing election, and they ensure the incoming government has maximum capacity to pursue its mandate without being unduly constrained by decisions taken immediately before the election. Guidance has long been available to public servants working for the Australian Government, but has not been so widely known at State and local government levels. This monograph provides guidance on appropriate professional standards for those working at all levels of government in Australia (and New Zealand).
