Australian government information

This site, which is maintained by the National Library of Australia, provides information about Australian governments at the Commonwealth, state and local levels. As such, it includes links to Commonwealth government department websites, official state and territorial websites, and Australian political party websites, as well as contact information for Commonwealth government departments and information about Commonwealth and state flags and emblems. The emphasis here is on "government" as commonly conceived in the Westminster system, i.e. executive departments and agencies.
