I have been advised that for the Department of the Premier and Cabinet:

Director, Product Teams (Platforms) SAES Level 1

Director, Projects and Procurement SAES Level 1


The following three executive positions were no longer required due to organisational change.

The following two positions transferred to the Attorney-General's Department as part of machinery of government changes.

The total annual employment cost for these abolished positions is $2,923,329 (excluding on costs). The employment cost of the vacant SAES 1 roles was calculated at the mid-point of the SAES 1 remuneration range.

Individual executive total remuneration package values as detailed in schedule 2 of an executive employee's contract will not be disclosed as it is deemed to be unreasonable disclosure of personal affairs.
