Guidance

The Treasury provides a range of guidance publications to assist State sector organisations to comply with their financial and performance reporting obligations.

If you know the specific guidance publication you’re looking for, go to our Publication Search and select the ‘Guidance’ Publication category. You can combine this with the ‘Keyword’ and ‘Issued From’ and ‘To’ fields to narrow your search further. 

To locate guidance relevant to a particular part of the State sector performance and financial management system, use the Links to Guidance on the State sector leadership Guidance page.
