Centre for Policy Development
Centre for Policy Development is a leading independent public policy think tank. It was established in 2007 as an institute for long-term policy development, in an effort to counteract the focus on short-term fixes and political gains in Australian policy making. Its motto is to embrace ‘the long-term now’.

The capability of the Australian Public Service
The Centre for Policy Development (CPD) welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the Finance and Public Administration References Committee to assist its inquiry into the current capability of the Australian Public Service (APS). Helping to nurture and grow public service capability to support a more effective government has been one of CPDs top priorities since we were founded in 2007. It has also been a hallmark of the careers of our founding Chairperson, John Menadue AO, and current Chairperson, Terry Moran AC, along with many members of CPDs network.
