    Abstract

    This thesis connects the histories of public sector audit, Parliament and public administration within a Westminster-based constitutional framework, generating a new narrative description of the development of audit independence. It provides a foundational understanding identifying a precedent for retaining and defending the independent Auditor General as a fundamental requirement in Australia's own constitutional arrangements. The study also contributes to filling substantial gaps in the specific history of the Auditor General’s role in nineteenth-century Western Australia.

    Curtin would like to pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members of our community by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which the Perth campus is located, the Whadjuk people of the Nyungar Nation; and on our Kalgoorlie campus, the Wongutha people of the North-Eastern Goldfields.
