As the year draws to a close, the Government News team would like to wish all of our valued readers the most Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for 2015 and a safe and relaxing holiday break.

With much of the public sector taking a well-deserved break over late December and January, we’ll also be taking a short respite from our regular website updates and bi-weekly newsletter from today and will return on Tuesday 6th January 2015 with our special Summer Edition for the duration of the month.

Government News Summer Edition is a great way to catch-up on the year’s best and most in-depth and insightful features, case studies and analysis opinion pieces which our regular magazine subscribers enjoy in every issue hot off the press.

You’ll be treated to quality career development and executive coaching tips from high respected mentor and public sector placement expert Marianne Broadbent, highly accessible technology deep dives from Gartner analysts and a wealth of relevant studies from subject matter experts across everything from archiving in the digital age to sustainable planning and development.

And as part of our commitment to keeping you informed and staying as relevant as possible, we’d also like to invite you to share your thoughts and help us improve through our regular reader survey.

So to all of our readers across Australia and overseas, a well-deserved safe and relaxing break!

The Government News Team
