Mr Bowen asked the Treasurer, in writing, on 11 August 2005:

(1)   Did the Australian Tax Office engage 6E Leadership Coaching at a cost of $49,500 to conduct executive coaching services.

(2)   What are the names of the executives who participated in this program and what form did the coaching take.


Mr Brough (Minister for Revenue and Assistant Treasurer) —The Treasurer has referred this question to me as it falls within my ministerial responsibilities. The answer to the honourable member’s question is as follows:

(1)   Yes the ATO did engage the services of 6E Leadership Coaching. The maximum possible value of the services provided is $49,500 inc GST.

(2)   It is not appropriate to name individual ATO officers. I can confirm that there are currently six staff members at the Executive Level 2 level involved in the coaching. The coaching addresses and is consistent with the development needs identified through the Australian Public Service Commission Career Development Assessment Centre process.
