It is the writing shell for Australian Journal of Public Administration: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list. The limits that decide a desk reject are on the journal page linked above.
An Australian Journal of Public Administration submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, an abstract of up to 200 words, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list, and figures and tables.

The sections an Australian Journal of Public Administration submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist.
