Administrative Arrangements

The Council of Financial Regulators does not have its own staff; support is provided by RBA officers. The Council met three times in 2001, and aims to meet on a quarterly basis each year.

The production and printing costs of this Annual Report were met by the RBA; distribution costs were shared by the members.

The Federal Treasurer has Ministerial responsibility for the Council. Although there is no statutory requirement for the Council to table its report in Federal Parliament, the Treasurer has agreed to do so on this occasion.
