There's a lot of news about public sector restructuring in the media at the moment. I thought I'd quickly flag a couple of articles from the Dom Post. Currently I'm reading today's front page article: Tax jobs next to face axe:

"Inland Revenue is tipped to be next in line for a shake-up, with hundreds of jobs on the line as the Government's call for public service restraint bites. The round of belt-tightening reviews in the public sector comes as the Government prepares to extend its nine-day fortnight scheme to smaller businesses and defends its February jobs summit in the face of rising unemployment..."

There's also a good article about the human face of public service cuts, which touches on the results of the job summit (and what action the Government has taken since).
