If your employment has been impacted by the election, you will be notified by the Parliamentary Workplace Support Services (PWSS). All impacted employees must complete the Notification of Employment Status form. Please note that MaPS is unable to pay final monies (where applicable) or complete other pay actions until your Notification of Employment Status has been submitted.

Information for MOP(S) Act employees regarding the election can be found on the elections page. For enquiries regarding termination and the deferral-of-termination period, please contact the PWSS.

Offices, resources and budgets

Office management: property

There are a number of office types provided under the PBR Act. MaPS assists with setting up offices, relocations, refurbishments, office equipment and maintenance, as well as security.

Office expenses budget

Parliamentarians are provided with an annual budget for office expenses under the PBR Act. This budget covers items such as stationery, printing and communication, nationhood materials and some ICT and telecommunications.

Other work expenses and resources

Parliamentarians receive insurance, injury compensation and legal assistance in relation to the conduct of their parliamentary business. Additional public resources may be provided to you in exceptional circumstances.

Parliamentary Business Resources framework

The Parliamentary Business Resources Act 2017 (PBR Act), together with the Regulations, determinations of the Remuneration Tribunal, and determinations and delegations made by the Minister or the Prime Minister under the PBR Act, establishes the framework to provide work expenses to current and former parliamentarians.
