| Summary |
The ability of Commonwealth Government organisations to manage business travel, including management of the delivery of travel services provided under contract, is often fundamental to achieving efficiently and effectively an organisation's outputs and outcomes. The strategic importance of travel to an organisation means the travel management function should generally be regarded as a key business support activity. The objective of this follow-up audit was to provide assurance to the Parliament on the cost-effectiveness of public sector travel by: - ascertaining the degree of acceptance, and the extent of implementation, of the previous audit recommendations and better practice principles; and - establishing whether organisations were managing travel effectively, taking into consideration recommendations and findings detailed in the above Audit Reports and the Better Practice Guide Public Sector Travel |
