Notes:

(a) For the purpose of the employee survey, these semi-autonomous parts of agencies were treated as part of their department so as not to be excluded from the employee survey.

(b) DHS was formally established in December 2004; hence the data provided by DHS does not cover the full 2004–05 financial year.

(c) The MRT and RRT, as semi-autonomous parts of DIMIA, submitted a combined response to the agency survey.
