MINISTERIAL ADVISERS, CODE OF CONDUCT

In reply to the Hon. I.F. EVANS (Davenport) (24 July 2013).

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts): I have been advised of the following:

The Code of Ethics (the Code) for the South Australian Public Sector is the code of conduct for the purposes of the Public Sector Act 2009 and is comprised of two parts.

The first part of the Code deals with the public sector values, whilst the latter part deals with professional conduct standards. The first part of the Code places emphasis on guiding values and principles of behaviour. The Code applies to public sector employees in its totality and its values are aspirational and to be applied in the context of the employment arrangement.

The professional conduct standards that comprise the second part of the Code do not represent aspirational statements, and compliance is mandatory. These conduct standards apply to all public sector employees regardless of the nature of employment, employment status (e.g. ongoing, term, casual, traineeship, apprenticeship), and nature of public sector organisation (e.g. administrative unit, public corporation, statutory authority, public hospitals, schools etc).
