2017 Western Australian machinery of government changes

The 2017 Western Australian machinery of government changes, also known as the public sector renewal, is a restructuring of various departments of the Government of Western Australia.
Ahead of the 2017 state election, Labor stated they would reduce the number of departments by up to 20% if they won the election. After Labor won the election, they increased the reduction to 40%.
The changes were advertised in April 2017, and began in July 2017.
The changes to the machinery of government include:
* Changes of duties for five departments
* Amalgamation of 34 existing departments and authorities into 11 new departments
Nine departments and authorities remain unchanged.<ref nameAmalgamatedDepartmentsOverview/><ref nameMandarin/>
