Leave liability information (dollar value and number of staff) is not available for the period as at 31 December 2020.  The ODPP’s payroll system does not retrospectively provide reporting of leave entitlement (and monetary value) for past dates. 

 

While the information (dollar value and number of staff) can be obtained, it is not possible to do so within the timeframe provided for response. The ODPP would need to manually calculate every staff member’s leave figures.
