Organisation
The Commonwealth DPP is a national office, and has a Head Office in Canberra and Regional Offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart and Darwin. There are also sub-offices of the Brisbane Office in Townsville and Cairns, which perform prosecution and asset confiscation work in central and north Queensland. As at 30 June 2007 the CDPP had 545 staff members.
Head Office provides advice to the Director and coordinates the work of the Office across Australia. Head Office is also responsible for case work in the Australian Capital Territory and southern New South Wales. The CDPP Regional Offices are responsible for conducting prosecutions and confiscation action in the relevant region.
The larger offices (Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane) each have a Senior Management Committee which meets on a regular basis to assist the Deputy Director in charge of that office. There is a less formal structure within the other offices, which reflects the size of those offices. The Director and the Deputy Directors meet twice each year to discuss policy and management issues. There are also regular meetings of an executive management group comprising senior officers from Head Office and a number of the Regional Offices.
