Dear Mr Speaker and Mr President

DPS Annual Report 2009–10

I have pleasure in submitting the annual report of the Department of Parliamentary Services (DPS) for the year ending 30 June 2010, as required by paragraph 65(1)(c) of the Parliamentary Service Act 1999. That provision requires the report to be presented to each House of the Parliament.

The report includes the Annual Report of the Parliamentary Librarian, as required under subsection 65(3) of the Parliamentary Service Act 1999.
As in previous years, DPS staff have worked tirelessly to maintain quality services to our clients and customers, and for that I thank them.

Yours sincerely

Alan Thompson
Secretary
