Australia, Melbourne, Not for Profit Sector

The Productivity Commission in January this year submitted its report on the Not for Profit Sector to the Australian Government. While that was a few months ago, it is relevant again now with the recent debate concerning the levels of salaries for those in the community sector who incidentally are mostly women.
