Disclosure Statement

The Policy Institute Pty Ltd (“Policy Institute”) mandate is independent, rigorous and practical.


An important aspect of our governance is to ensure that the external activities of our staff and contractors avoid conflicts of interest or reputational concerns while also supporting their aspirations to participate in the broader community and the value of them doing so.
Our staff are required to disclose, and to have approval, to undertake any paid or unpaid external activities. Disclosure includes approved current, and recent past, external activities of current Policy Institute staff.


Permission is granted on a case-by-case basis. As always, common sense, sound judgment, mutual trust and integrity are applied in these matters. In accordance with our Constitution, conflicts of interest must be disclosed and will be managed accordingly.
John Wylie (Chairman) and Amy Auster (CEO) determine external activity permissions.
