This incoming government brief for the Minister for Environment and Water outlines departmental establishment procedures, organisational structure, and support arrangements following the change of government on 3 May 2025. The document provides logistical information about ministerial office setup, identifies key departmental contacts (Dana Sutton for Ministerial Liaison and Grant Rebikoff for IT support), describes portfolio structure and governance arrangements, and explains ministerial support services including parliamentary, legal, communications, and protective security functions. The brief references the Administrative Arrangements Order and indicates that portfolio agencies will provide separate incoming briefs. This is procedural transition documentation rather than substantive environmental decision-making or regulatory material.
