The Prime Ministerial Advisory Council on Ex-Service Matters is a body established to consider and advise the Prime Minister and Government on strategic and complex matters. Its aim is to:
- provide advice on the major issues affecting the ex-service and defence communities and influence policy to better the future for members of these communities;
- advise on ex-service matters which directly impact on the responsibilities of other government departments;
- review proposed legislation and its impact on the ex-service and defence communities, (where required); and
- consider and assist the prioritising of issues raised or referred by the Prime Minister and/or the Minister.
The effectiveness of the Council will be reviewed periodically.
