The position of Australian Minister for Government Services is The Honourable Stuart Robert MP, since May 2019. The position was previously held by The Honourable Michael Keenan MP as Minister for Human Services from 20 December 2017 to 29 May 2019.[1][2]

The portfolio was renamed Minister for Government Services, overseeing Services Australia, in machinery of government changes ordered by Prime Minister Scott Morrison following the 2019 federal election.[3]

Scope

In the Government of Australia, the Minister is responsible for a number of welfare agencies and administers their portfolio through the Department of Human Services and its component bodies:

The Department of Human Services was created on 26 October 2004, as part of the Finance Portfolio, to improve the development and delivery of Government social and health related services to the Australian people.

As a result of the Administrative Arrangements Orders (AAOs) issued on 30 January 2007, the Department of Human Services and its agencies were transferred to a newly created Human Services Portfolio.

The Department of Human Services provides a central policy and coordination role for the delivery of services across the Portfolio as well as being the delivery agency for child support and vocational rehabilitation services. The AAOs of 25 January 2008 clarified the Department’s responsibility for the development of policy or service delivery, directed at ensuring the effective, innovative, and efficient delivery of Government services. The Department works with other departments and agencies to ensure early consideration of service delivery issues in the policy development process to improve the quality and cost effectiveness of service delivery by agencies in the Human Services Portfolio.

List of Ministers for Government Services

There was a Minister for Social Services or Social Security continuously from 1939 to 1998, when service delivery was partially privatised and residual functions were transferred to the Minister for Finance and Administration. In 2004, the position of Minister for Human Services was recreated to handle the residual functions; Scott Morrison renamed the portfolio to Government Services in 2019.

The following individuals have been appointed as Minister for Government Services, or any precedent titles:[1][4]
