The Office has published information about greenhouse gas emissions in the annual report since 2022–23. The quality of data is expected to improve over time as emissions reporting matures.

The figures reported in the Office of the Official Secretary to the Governor-General Annual Report 2022–23 were incorrectly calculated. Per the required process for providing this corrected data as advised by the Department of Finance, corrected figures are provided below.

Emission Source Scope 1 kg CO2-e Scope 2 kg CO2-e Scope 3 kg CO2-e Total kg CO2-e
Electricity (location-based approach) n/a 697,362 57,318 754,680
Natural Gas 96,988 n/a 24,656 121,645
