State Law Building
Brisbane Qld 4000

Dear Attorney

I am pleased to present the Annual Report 2009–10 for the Department of Justice and Attorney-General.

I certify that this Annual Report complies with:

• the prescribed requirements of the Financial Accountability Act 2009 and the Financial and Performance Management Standard 2009, and
• the detailed requirements set out in the Annual Reporting Guidelines for Queensland Government Agencies.

The implementation of the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) on 1 December 2009 amalgamated the functions of a number of tribunals. Some of these tribunals were under the jurisdiction of other agencies and now form part of QCAT. Reporting on the operation of QCAT from 1 December 2009 to 30 June 2010 has been included in this report.

A checklist outlining the annual reporting requirements can be accessed at www.justice.qld.gov.au/corporate-publications.htm.

Yours sincerely

Phil Clarke
Acting Director-General
