This identifier can be used to link Australian government organisations (numbering 1218 at current count) with an Australian government register which is kept up-to-date as the structure of the Australian government changes. Benefits of establishing these links include completion of Wikidata coverage of Australian government organisations, an ability to query additional useful data from the register and an ability to compare over time any differences that may arise between Wikidata and this register.
