Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox government agency The Department of the Northern Territory was an Australian government department that existed between December 1972 and June 1975. It was the second so-named Australian government department.
History
The department was one of several new Departments established by the Whitlam government, a wide restructuring that revealed some of the new government's program.[1] The creation of the department, with a Darwin-based Secretary, was seen by many as an effort to undermine the role of the Northern Territory Administrator.[2]
Scope
Information about the department's functions and government funding allocation could be found in the Administrative Arrangements Orders, the annual Portfolio Budget Statements and in the department's annual reports.
The department was responsible for the administration of the Northern Territory of Australia and the Territory of Ashmore and Cartier Islands. The principal matters dealt with by the department at its creation were:[3]
- Urban development and town planning
- Transport planning; and
- Local government, community services and housing
- Forest, fisheries, wildlife, and National Parks
- Animal industry and agriculture
- Mines
- Water resources
Structure
The department was a Commonwealth Public Service department, staffed by officials who were responsible to the Minister for the Northern Territory.[3] When the department was established, George Warwick Smith was named Secretary.[3] After less than a month, he was replaced by Allan O'Brien.[2]
