Where can I find more information about Senate estimates?
Thanks for your question, Ken. Senate estimates hearings, also known as estimates committees or simply 'estimates', allow senators to scrutinise – closely examine – how the government is spending taxpayers' money.
If you want specific information about the most recent estimates hearings, you can find this on the Australian Parliament House website. This page includes links to each of the committees and a searchable database of questions on notice.
