USER GUIDE TO THE

PORTFOLIO ADDITIONAL ESTIMATES STATEMENTS

vii

USER GUIDE The purpose of the Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements (PAES), like that of the Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements), is to inform Senators and Members of Parliament of the proposed allocation of resources to Government outcomes by entities within the portfolio. The focus of the PAES differs from the PB Statements in one important aspect. While the PAES include an Entity Resource Statement to inform Parliament of the revised estimate of the total resources available to an entity, the focus of the PAES is on explaining the changes in resourcing by outcome(s) since the Budget. As such, the PAES provides information on new measures and their impact on the financial and/or non-financial planned performance of programmes supporting those outcomes. The PAES facilitate understanding of the proposed appropriations in Appropriation Bills (Nos. 3 and 4) 2014-15. In this sense the PAES is declared by the Additional Estimates Appropriation Bills to be a ‘relevant document’ to the interpretation of the Bills according to section 15AB of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901. Whereas the Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO) 2014-15 is a mid-year budget report which provides updated information to allow the assessment of the Government’s fiscal performance against its fiscal strategy, the PAES update the most recent budget appropriations for entities within the portfolio.

INFRASTRUCTURE AND REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PORTFOLIO OVERVIEW MINISTERS AND PORTFOLIO RESPONSIBILITIES

The responsibilities of the ministers and portfolio have not changed since tabling of the 2014-15 Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements).

However, the governance structure of Infrastructure Australia (IA) changed as a result of amendments to the Infrastructure Australia Act 2008 which came into effect on 1 September 2014. The amendments re-established IA as a Corporate Commonwealth Entity under the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (previously IA was a statutory council). IA’s statutory function is to deliver high quality advice on the nationally significant infrastructure needs of Australia.

IA has the following outcome.

Outcome 1: Improve decision-making on matters relating to infrastructure; advise governments and others on matters relating to infrastructure, including better assessment of infrastructure needs and prioritisation of infrastructure projects; and promote best practice infrastructure planning, financing, delivery and operation.

More information about IA can be found at <www.infrastructureaustralia.gov.au>.

The Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements (PAES) provides information on variations since the Budget for the Portfolio’s Commonwealth entities who are seeking additional appropriations through Appropriation Bills No. 3 and No. 4. For the 2014-15 PAES, variations relate only to the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development (the Department), the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) and the National Capital Authority (NCA) with IA providing statements for the first time. Statements for the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB), Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and National Transport Commission (NTC) are not included.

SECTION 1: ENTITY OVERVIEW AND RESOURCES 1.1: STRATEGIC DIRECTION STATEMENT

The Department’s strategic direction statement has changed since tabling of the 2014-15 Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements). On 1 September 2014, amendments to the Infrastructure Australia Act 2008 came into effect. The amendments re-established Infrastructure Australia as a Corporate Commonwealth Entity under the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (previously Infrastructure Australia was a statutory council). References to Infrastructure Australia have been removed from the Department’s strategic direction.

SECTION 2: REVISIONS TO ENTITY OUTCOMES AND PLANNED PERFORMANCE 2.1: OUTCOMES AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Outcomes are the intended results, impacts or consequences of actions by the Australian Government on the Australian community. Programmes are the primary vehicle by which Commonwealth entities achieve the intended results of their outcome statements. Entities are required to identify the programmes which contribute to Australian Government outcomes over the Budget and forward years.

Figure 2.1 provides the outcome and programme structure which remains unchanged from that reported in the 2014-15 PB Statements.

Figure 2.1: Outcome and programme structure

Outcome 4Good governance in the Australian territories through the maintenance and improvement of the overarching legislative framework for self-governing territories, and laws and services for non-self-governing territories.

4.1 Services to territories

Outcome 1Improved infrastructure across Australia through investment in and coordination of transport and other infrastructure.

Outcome 2An efficient, sustainable, competitive, safe and secure transport system for all transport users through regulation, financial assistance and safety investigations.

2.1 Transport security

2.2 Surface transport

2.3 Road safety

23

Administered items The Department administers a range of items on behalf of the Australian Government. The relationship between the Department’s outcomes and its administered items are detailed in Figures 2.2 to 2.5 in the 2014-15 PB Statements. The following changes to the list of administered items, as published in the 2014-15 PB Statements, have occurred since Budget:

Amendments to administered items

Programme 1.1: Infrastructure investment

• Within the Infrastructure Investment Programme, the Off-Network Projects component has been incorporated into the Investment component.

• The Bridges Renewal Programme has been reclassified as a National Partnership payment with payments made to and through the states and territories by the Department of the Treasury.

Programme 3.1: Regional development

• There is a new administered item: Bathurst 200 Commemorative Flagstaff Project – contribution.

Programme 3.2: Local government

• There is a new administered item: Award for local government.

Programme 4.1: Services to territories

• There is a new administered item: Loan to the Australian Capital Territory Government - loose fill asbestos.


24

Outcome 1: Improved infrastructure across Australia through investment in and coordination of transport and other infrastructure.

Outcome 1 Strategy The strategy for Outcome 1 has changed from that published in the 2014-15 PB Statements. On 1 September 2014, amendments to the Infrastructure Australia Act 2008 came into effect. The amendments re-established Infrastructure Australia as a Corporate Commonwealth Entity under the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (previously Infrastructure Australia was a statutory council). References to Infrastructure Australia have been removed from the Outcome 1 Strategy.

Departmental appropriation splits and totals are indicative estimates and may change in the course of the budget year as government priorities change.

Notes: 1. Administered expenses not requiring appropriation in the Budget year comprises expenses relating to

prepayments associated with prior year payments. 2. Departmental appropriation combines ‘Ordinary annual services (Appropriation Act No. 1 and Bill No. 3)’

and s74 Retained revenue receipts. 3. Departmental expenses not requiring appropriation in the Budget year include the Operating

Surplus/Deficit, Depreciation and Amortisation expenses and other non-cash expense items. 4. ASL figures for 2013-14 appear lower in comparison to the 2014-15 figures because of the part-year effect of

the transfer of functions from the former Department of Regional Australia, Local Government, Arts and Sport (DRALGAS).


26

Contributions to Outcome 1


The objective, deliverables and key performance indicators for Programme 1.1 have changed from those published in the 2014-15 PB Statements.

Programme 1.1 Objective The changes to the Programme 1.1 Objective include:

• removal of references to Infrastructure Australia, as Infrastructure Australia was re-established as a Corporate Commonwealth Entity from 1 September 2014; and

• modification of the administered items as outlined on page 23.


27

Programme 1.1 Expenses The changes in expenses from 2013-14 to 2014-15 are due mainly to the current funding profile of the Infrastructure Investment Programme and the Plan for the Future administered items.

Programme 3.2 Expenses The increase in expenses from 2013-14 to 2014-15 is due to the bring-forward of funds from 2013-14 to 2012-13 for the Local Government Financial Assistance Grants administered item.

Outcome 4: Good governance in the Australian Territories through the maintenance and improvement of the overarching legislative framework for self-governing territories, and laws and services for non-self-governing territories.

Outcome 4 Strategy The strategy for Outcome 4 has changed from that published in the 2014-15 PB Statements to include the new administered item: Loan to the Australian Capital Territory Government - loose fill asbestos.

The modified strategy is below.

Outcome 4 is delivered through the following programmes: 4.1 Services to territories The Department administers the territories of the Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Christmas Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, the Coral Sea Islands and Jervis Bay, and manages national interests in the Australian Capital Territory, the Northern Territory and Norfolk Island. Through Outcome 4, the Department assists these territories to establish and maintain good governance and manage their own futures by providing services and advice on ongoing administration for the non-self-governing territories. The Department delivers services, provides funding support and undertakes capital works with the objective of ensuring that territory communities have access to similar services as equivalent state communities. The Department will contribute to these objectives by:

• providing policy advice and legislation to maintain and improve effective systems of governance and the necessary legal framework for the protection and wellbeing of the community;

• supporting the Australian Government’s role in the territories through continuous improvement of the administration of inter-governmental agreements and various programmes, maintaining Australian Government assets and delivering state and local government-type services; and

• administering the loan to the ACT Government to implement a programme to remediate the contamination by loose fill asbestos of properties in the ACT and related activities.

Following COAG federal financial framework reforms, the Department of the Treasury is responsible for National Partnership Payments to and through the states and territories. The Department of the Treasury holds the appropriation for these items and reports the financial details accordingly. The non-financial performance of the corresponding programmes remains the responsibility of the Department. The Outcome 4 programmes administered by the Department under this framework include the Australian Government’s contribution to the Centenary of Canberra in 2014-15.

Notes: 1. 2013-14 actuals appear lower in comparison to the 2014-15 estimates primarily because it excludes actuals

incurred prior to the transfer of functions from DRALGAS in the AAO of 18 September 2013. 2. Administered expenses not requiring appropriation in the Budget year relate to Depreciation and

Amortisation expenses and accruals. 3. Departmental appropriation combines ‘Ordinary annual services (Appropriation Act No. 1 and Bill No. 3)’


Surplus/Deficit, Depreciation and Amortisation expenses and other non-cash expense items. 5. ASL figures for 2013-14 appear lower in comparison to the 2014-15 figures because of the part-year effect of

the transfer of functions from the former DRALGAS.

The key performance indicators for Programme 4.1 remain unchanged from those published in the 2014-15 PB Statements. However the objective and deliverables have been modified.

Programme 4.1 Expenses The fluctuation in expenses from one year to the next is due mainly to the termination of the Norfolk Island – reforms and services administered item in 2014-15 and the changing profiles of the Loan to the Australian Capital Territory Government – loose fill asbestos and Services to Indian Ocean Territories administered items.

3.2: BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3.2.1: Analysis of budgeted financial statements An analysis of the Department’s financial position, as reflected in the budgeted departmental financial statements and administered schedules for 2014-15, is provided below.

Departmental Budgeted departmental income statement

Total expenses are estimated to be $288.2m in 2014-15, an increase of $3.5m from Budget. The increase is primarily due to increased revenue ($2.6m) and revised depreciation estimates ($1.0m).

Budgeted departmental balance sheet

The Department’s major assets are in Buildings ($16.4m), Property, plant & equipment ($7.6m) and Intangibles ($17.9m). The Department’s primary liability continues to be accrued employee leave entitlements, estimated at $48.1m.

Administered Schedule of budgeted income and expenses administered on behalf of government

The Department administers the collection of taxes, fees and fines, other non-taxation revenue and interest and dividends estimated at $744.9m in 2014-15, representing a decrease of $7.5m from Budget. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in dividends from the Australian Rail Track Corporation Limited ($28.5m) and reduced revenue under the Interstate Road Transport fees administered item ($6.0m). The decrease is partially offset by increased interest revenue ($14.8m) and increased revenue under the Services to Indian Ocean Territories administered item ($14.0m).

Administered expenses are budgeted at $4 471.9m in 2014-15, representing an increase of $32.1m from Budget and will be incurred for the administered items set out at Section 2. The increase is primarily due to the movement of administered funds approved since Budget ($30.3m), the recognition of expenses associated with concessional loans ($27.7m) and increased funding for payments to corporate entities ($23.7m) and the Services to Indian Ocean Territories administered item ($17.1m). The increase was partially offset by the


48

reallocation of expense estimates between the Department of the Treasury for the Infrastructure Investment Programme administered item ($67.8m).

Schedule of budgeted assets and liabilities administered on behalf of government

Total assets are expected to increase in 2014-15 by $730.2m to $6 158.4m from the 2013-14 actual result. The increase relates mainly to the loan provided to the Australian Capital Territory Government for the purpose of undertaking its loose fill asbestos remediation programme ($750.0m).

3.2.3: Notes to the financial statements 1. Accounting policy The budgeted financial statements have been prepared on an accrual accounting basis, having regard to Statements of Accounting Concepts, and in accordance with: • the Finance Minister’s Orders; • Australian Accounting Standards; • Other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board; and • The Consensus Views of the Urgent Issues Group. 2. Departmental and administered items Entity assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are those items that are controlled by the Department and are used by the Department in producing its outputs and include: • computers, plant and equipment used in providing goods and services; • liabilities for employee entitlements; • revenue from appropriations or independent sources in payment for outputs; and • employee, supplier and depreciation expenses incurred in providing entity outputs. Administered items are those items incurred in providing programmes that are controlled by government and managed, or oversighted, by the Department on behalf of government. Administered expenses include grant payments and subsidies, and administered revenues include levies, fees and fines. 3. Departmental expenses – employees Payments and net increases in entitlements to employees for services rendered in the financial year. 4. Departmental expenses – suppliers Payments to suppliers for goods and services used in providing entity outputs. 5. Departmental expenses – depreciation and amortisation Depreciable infrastructure, plant and equipment, buildings and intangible assets are written-off to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful life to the Department, using the straight-line calculation method. 6. Departmental own-source revenue Revenue from government represents the purchase of outputs from the Department by government and is recognised to the extent that it has been received into the Department’s bank account. Revenue from other sources, representing sales from goods and services, is recognised when: • the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer; • the seller retains no managerial involvement nor effective control over the goods; • the revenue and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the

Department.


61

7. Departmental assets – financial assets The primary financial asset relates to receivables. Financial assets are used to fund the Department‘s capital programme, employee entitlements, creditors and to provide working capital. 8. Departmental assets – non-financial assets These items represent future economic benefits that the Department will consume in producing outputs. The reported value represents the purchase price paid less depreciation incurred to date in using the asset. 9. Departmental liabilities – employee provisions Provision has been made for the Department’s liability for employee entitlements arising from services rendered by employees. This liability includes unpaid annual leave and long service leave. 10. Expenses administered on behalf of Government The majority of the Department’s administered programmes are classified as grants, the most significant being the Infrastructure Investment Programme, Plan for the Future and Local Government Financial Assistance Grants administered items. 11. Own-source revenues administered on behalf of Government Details of the range of taxation and non-taxation revenue collected by the Department are provided at Appendix 3.2.1. 12. Administered assets – financial assets Comprise primarily the Australian Government’s investments in portfolio agencies.

Australian Maritime Safety Authority





67


The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) is a statutory authority established under the Australian Maritime Safety Authority Act 1990 (AMSA Act), with the primary role to:

• promote maritime safety and protection of the marine environment;

• prevent and combat ship-sourced pollution in the marine environment;

• provide infrastructure to support safety of navigation in Australian waters;

• provide a national search and rescue service to the maritime and aviation sectors;

• provide, on request, services to the maritime industry on a commercial basis; and

• provide, on request, services of a maritime nature on a commercial basis to the Commonwealth and/or states and territories.

AMSA’s vision is safe shipping, clean seas and saving lives.

AMSA’s outcome statement is to minimise the risk of shipping incidents and pollution in Australian waters through ship safety and environment protection regulation and services and maximise people saved from maritime and aviation incidents through search and rescue coordination.

A full outline of AMSA’s strategic direction statement can be found in the 2014-15 Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements).


68


The Entity resource statement details the resourcing for AMSA at Additional Estimates. Table 1.1 shows the total resources from all sources for the 2014-15 Budget year, including variations through Appropriation Bills No. 3 and No. 4 and special appropriations.

Outcomes are the intended results, impacts or consequences of actions by the Australian Government on the Australian community. Programmes are the primary vehicle by which government entities achieve the intended results of their outcome statements. Entities are required to identify the programmes which contribute to Australian Government outcomes over the Budget and forward years.

Figure 2.1 summarises the relationship between AMSA’s outcome statement, its programme and subprogrammes and the involvement of its divisions in delivering each subprogramme.

Outcome 1: Minimise the risk of shipping incidents and pollution in Australian waters through ship safety and environment protection regulation and services and maximise people saved from maritime and aviation incidents through search and rescue coordination.

Outcome 1 Strategy AMSA contributes to one Outcome and one Programme, which is divided into two subprogrammes:

Subprogramme 1.1.1: Seafarer and ship safety and environment protection aims to achieve the first part of AMSA’s Outcome: Minimising the risk of shipping incidents and pollution in Australian waters through ship safety and environment protection regulation and services.

Subprogramme 1.1.2: Search and rescue aims to achieve the second part of AMSA’s Outcome: Maximising the number of people saved from maritime and aviation incidents through search and rescue coordination.

AMSA will contribute to improved ship safety, protection of the marine environment and provision of search and rescue coordination services by implementing the major elements outlined in its Corporate Plan 2014-18.

Estimates of special account flows AMSA does not maintain any Special Accounts.


3.2.1: Analysis of budgeted financial statements AMSA has revised its budgeted zero operating result in 2014-15 to a budgeted operating surplus of $8.7m. The surplus is due to Government increases to Outcome 1 funding for AMSA’s Community Service Obligation search and rescue response activities. The increased funding will eliminate the previous operating deficit for this activity.

AMSA’s budgeted financial statements over the forward estimates have been adjusted to take into account the effect of indexation adjustments and efficiency dividend. AMSA has absorbed the increase within those affected activities and has maintained budgeted financial statements over the forward estimates as per the 2014-15 Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements).

There are no other changes to AMSA’s budgeted financial statements, as reflected in the PB Statements. Accordingly AMSA’s revised budgeted financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Budget Papers and PB Statements.

3.2.3: Notes to the financial statements 1. Accounting policy The budgeted financial statements have been prepared on an accrual accounting basis, having regard to Statements of Accounting Concepts, and in accordance with: • the Finance Minister's Orders; • Australian Accounting Standards; • other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board; and • the Consensus Views of the Urgent Issues Group. 2. Departmental and administered items Entity assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are those items that are controlled by AMSA that are used in producing its outcomes and include: • infrastructure, plant and equipment used in providing goods and services; • liabilities for employee entitlements; • revenue from appropriations or independent sources in payment for outcomes; and • employee, supplier and depreciation expenses incurred in providing entity outcomes. AMSA has no administered items. 3. Departmental expenses – employees Payments and net increases in entitlements to employees for services rendered in the financial year. 4. Departmental expenses – suppliers Payments to suppliers for goods and services used in providing entity outcomes. 5. Departmental expenses - depreciation and amortisation Depreciable property plant and equipment, buildings and intangible assets are written-off to their estimated residual values over their estimated useful life to AMSA, using the straight-line calculation method. 6. Departmental revenue Revenue from Government represents the purchase of outcomes from AMSA by the Government and is recognised to the extent that it has been received into AMSA’s bank account. Revenue from other sources, representing sales from goods and services, is recognised when: • the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer; • the seller retains no managerial involvement nor effective control over the goods; • the revenue and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the

entity.


83

7. Departmental assets - financial assets The primary financial asset relates to receivables. Financial assets are used to fund AMSA’s capital programme, employee entitlements, creditors and to provide working capital. 8. Departmental assets - non-financial assets These items represent future economic benefits that AMSA will consume in producing outcomes. The reported value represents the purchase price paid less depreciation incurred to date in using the asset. 9. Departmental liabilities - provisions and payables Provision has been made for AMSA’s liability for employee entitlements arising from services rendered by employees. This liability includes unpaid annual leave and long service leave. Provision has also been made for unpaid supplier expenses as at balance date.

Infrastructure Australia





87


Infrastructure Australia (IA) is a statutory authority established on 1 September 2014 following amendment of the Infrastructure Australia Act 2008. IA’s primary role is to support the Australian Government’s plan to build a strong and prosperous economy through the provision of high quality independent advice to the Australian Government, and in turn, all levels of government and industry on matters relating to nationally significant infrastructure.

In accordance with the outcome in Section 2 of this document, “Outcomes and Planned Performance”, IA is responsible for providing independent advice for the following:

• better assessment of infrastructure needs;

• improved decision-making on infrastructure matters;

• improved prioritisation of infrastructure projects; and

• promotion of best practice infrastructure planning, financing, delivery and operation.

The key priorities for IA in 2014-15 are: delivering a comprehensive audit of Australia’s nationally significant infrastructure (the Audit); developing a 15 year national infrastructure plan that identifies the infrastructure priorities required to increase productivity and support economic growth; and developing the corporate capabilities of IA as a new entity to support its role as an independent organisation that provides high quality advice.

The Audit considers demographic trends relevant to infrastructure utilisation as well as economic, social and environmental sustainability. The Audit’s focus is on assessing Australia’s current infrastructure to determine the adequacy and capacity of this infrastructure to meet future requirements. The primary function of the Audit is to inform the development of the National Infrastructure Plan.

Infrastructure Australia will develop a 15 year rolling national infrastructure plan which will assess the future requirements of our nation’s infrastructure networks. The plan will be informed by the outcomes of the Audits and of any evaluations of infrastructure proposals undertaken and will clearly identify priorities at a national and state specific level.

The plan will be updated at least every five years and will both inform and be informed by the development of the infrastructure priority list.

The Australian Government is committed to realising the potential of northern Australia and will produce a White Paper on Developing Northern Australia. IA will also inform and contribute to the Australian Government’s White Paper through a comprehensive audit of northern Australia’s infrastructure asset base and requirements.

Infrastructure Australia must develop its corporate capabilities in 2014-15 to support the new governance and corporate structures. This will include a review and implementation of systems, structures and processes that will enable the organisation to fulfil its duties as an independent body that provides high quality advice on infrastructure matters.

Additional priorities of IA in 2014-15 include:

• Undertake evaluations on all infrastructure proposals where funding of more than $100 million is sought from the Commonwealth. This includes economic and social infrastructure proposals but excludes defence proposals.


88

• Regularly update and further develop the Infrastructure Priority List. This priority list will be informed by the other work of IA, in particular the National Infrastructure Plan and evaluation of infrastructure proposals.

• Undertake a review of the performance assessment frameworks utilised by jurisdictions in submitting proposals to IA for evaluation. The review will consider the adequate consideration of social, environmental and economic costs and benefits. The review will also consider the appropriate application of broader benefits (in addition to direct benefits) and provide guidance on how these should be measured and applied, if required.

• Promote best practice in the planning, funding and delivery of infrastructure through leadership on regulatory reform objectives.

• Through engagement with all levels of government and industry, facilitate the continual evolution of planning and procurement practices by building a repository of data, information and knowledge on the nation’s infrastructure resources, requirements, delivery and practices.

• Establish productive working relationships with all levels of government and industry. This includes engaging closely with other Commonwealth departments, agencies and entities as well as states, territories, local governments, investors in infrastructure, owners of infrastructure and the public – as the end users of infrastructure.


89


The Entity resource statement details the resourcing for IA at Additional Estimates. Table 1.1 shows the total resources from all sources for the 2014-15 Budget year, including variations through Appropriation Bills No. 3 and No. 4 and special appropriations.

Outcomes are the intended results, impacts or consequences of actions by the Australian Government on the Australian community. Programmes are the primary vehicle by which government entities achieve the intended results of their outcome statements. Entities are required to identify the programmes which contribute to Australian Government outcomes over the Budget and forward years.

The outcome for IA is described below together with its related programmes, specifying the performance indicators and targets used to assess and monitor the performance of IA in achieving Australian Government outcomes.

Outcome 1: Improve decision-making on matters relating to infrastructure; advise governments and others on matters relating to infrastructure, including better assessment of infrastructure needs and prioritisation of infrastructure projects; and promote best practice infrastructure planning, financing, delivery and operation.

Outcome 1 Strategy During 2014-15 Infrastructure Australia’s work programme will include:

• Complete a comprehensive audit of northern Australia’s infrastructure to inform and contribute to the Australian Government’s White Paper on developing Northern Australia.

• Complete an audit of Australia’s nationally significant infrastructure.

• Develop a 15 year rolling national infrastructure plan that clearly identifies infrastructure priorities at a national and state specific level.

• Evaluate the assessment of project proposals on all infrastructure proposals where funding of more than $100 million is sought from the Commonwealth. This includes economic and social infrastructure proposals but excludes defence proposals.

• Review the performance assessment frameworks utilised by jurisdictions in submitting proposals to IA for evaluation.

• Develop a regularly updated Infrastructure Priority List. This priority list will be informed by the other work of IA in particular the National Infrastructure Plan and the evaluation of infrastructure proposals.

• Develop corporate capabilities to support the new governance structure of IA and to create an independent organisation that provides high quality advice on infrastructure matters.

• Establish productive working relationships with all levels of government and industry. This includes engaging closely with other Commonwealth departments, agencies and entities as well as states, territories, local governments, investors in infrastructure, owners of infrastructure and the public – as the end users of infrastructure.

SECTION 3: EXPLANATORY TABLES AND BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3.1: EXPLANATORY TABLES Estimates of special account flows and balances The NCA does not maintain Special Accounts.


3.2.1: Analysis of budgeted financial statements An analysis of NCA’s financial position, as reflected in the budgeted departmental financial statements and administered schedules for 2014-15, is provided below.

Departmental comprehensive income statement

The NCA will receive an additional $0.8m appropriation funding in 2014-15, increasing to approximately $1.0m in forward years, for increased maintenance of car parks in the central national area of Canberra. In 2014-15, departmental funding will increase from $16.8m to $17.6m. In 2014-15 and the forward years, the funding will be expended in the year of receipt, thus maintaining a budgeted break-even operating result when adjusted for depreciation and amortisation expense.

Budgeted departmental balance sheet

As the increased appropriation will be expended in the year of receipt, the NCA’s net asset position is budgeted to remain consistent.

Schedule of budgeted income and expenses administered on behalf of Government

The NCA will receive an additional $2.5m expense appropriation funding in 2014-15, and approximately $2.3m in forward years, to operate the pay parking scheme in the central national area of Canberra.

The pay parking scheme was programmed to commence in July 2014 but was delayed until October 2014. An ongoing increase in parking revenue over forward years is expected to be in the order of $5.0m per annum.

Schedule of budgeted assets and liabilities administered on behalf of the Government

An additional $0.8m capital appropriation, increasing to approximately $1.0m in forward years, will be received to upgrade the car parks. This is in addition to the $3.1m equity injection available to the NCA in 2014-15 through the 2013-14 budget process.

GLOSSARY

Actual available appropriation

The Actual available appropriation indicates the total appropriations available to the entity for 2013-14. It includes all appropriations made available to the entity in the year (+/- section 75 transfers, formal reductions, Advance to the Finance Minister and movements of funds). It is to be the same as the comparator figure included in the Appropriation Bills, and as such provides a comparison with the appropriation proposed for the budget year.

Additional Estimates

Where amounts appropriated at Budget time are insufficient, Parliament may appropriate more funds to portfolios through the Additional Estimates Acts. This is the Additional Estimates process.

Additional Estimates Bills or Acts

These are Appropriation Bills 3 and 4, and a separate Bill for the Parliamentary Departments Appropriations (Parliamentary Departments) Bill (No 2). These Bills are introduced into Parliament after the Budget Bills. In 2013-14, the Budget was introduced in May 2013, and the Additional Estimates Bills were introduced in February 2014.

Administered item Appropriation that consists of funding managed on behalf of the Commonwealth. This funding is not at the discretion of the entity and any unspent appropriation is returned to the CRF at the end of the financial year. An administered item is a component of an administered programme. It may be a measure but will not constitute a programme in its own right.

Annual appropriation

Two appropriation Bills are introduced into Parliament in May and comprise the Budget for the financial year beginning 1 July. Further Bills are introduced later in the financial year as part of the additional estimates. Parliamentary departments have their own appropriations.

Appropriation An amount of public money parliament authorises for spending (i.e. funds to be withdrawn from the CRF). Parliament makes laws for appropriating money under the Annual Appropriation Acts and under Special Appropriations, with spending restricted to the purposes specified in the Appropriation Acts.

Consolidated Revenue Fund (CRF)

The principal operating fund from which money is drawn to pay for the activities of the Government. Section 81 of the Australian Constitution provides that all revenue raised or monies received by the Executive Government forms one consolidated revenue fund from which appropriations are made for the purposes of the Australian Government.

Departmental item Resources (assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses) that entity Chief Executive Officers control directly. This includes outsourced activities funded and controlled by the entity. Examples of departmental items include entity running costs, accrued employee entitlements and net appropriations. A departmental item is a component of a departmental programme.

Glossary

128

Expenses not requiring appropriation in the Budget year

Expenses not involving a cash flow impact are not included within the calculation of an appropriation. An example of such an event is goods or services received free of charge that are then expensed: e.g. ANAO audit services — the ANAO does not charge for audit services however the expense must be recognised. Similarly, bad debts are recognised as an expense but are not recognised for the purpose of calculating appropriation amounts to be sought from Parliament.

Forward Estimates Period

The three years following the budget year. For example if 2014-15 is the budget year, 2015-16 is forward year 1, 2016-17 is forward year 2 and 2017-18 is forward year 3. This period does not include the current or budget year.

General Government Sector (GGS)

A Government Finance Statistics classification of all entities that are controlled and largely funded by the Commonwealth Government. The GGS provides public services that are mainly non-market in nature and for the collective consumption of the community, or involve the transfer or redistribution of income. These services are largely financed through taxes and other compulsory levies, user charging and external funding. This sector comprises all government departments, offices and some other bodies.

Government Finance Statistics (GFS)

A reporting framework that is a specialised statistical system designed to support economic analysis of the public sector. It allows for comprehensive assessments of the economic impact of government and is consistent with international statistical standards of the International Monetary Fund and the System of National Accounts.

Measure A new policy or savings decision of the government with financial impacts on the government's: underlying cash balance; fiscal balance; operating balance; headline cash balance; net debt or net worth. Such proposals are normally made in the context of the annual Budget, and are typically published in Budget Paper No. 2, in the Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO) and in the Pre-election Economic and Fiscal Outlook (PEFO).

Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO)

The MYEFO provides an update of the government's budget estimates by examining expenses and revenues in the year to date, as well as provisions for new decisions that have been taken since the Budget. The report provides updated information to allow the assessment of the government‘s fiscal performance against the fiscal strategy set out in its current fiscal strategy statement.

Official Public Account (OPA)

The OPA is the Australian Government‘s central bank account held within the Reserve Bank of Australia. The OPA reflects the operations of the Consolidated Revenue Fund.

Outcome An outcome is the intended result, consequence or impact of Government actions on the Australian community.

Glossary

129

Outcome Statement

An outcome statement articulates the intended results, activities and target group of an Australian Government entity. An outcome statement serves three main purposes within the financial framework: • to explain and control the purposes for which annual

appropriations are approved by the Parliament for use by agencies;

• to provide a basis for annual budgeting, including (financial) reporting against the use of appropriated funds; and

• to measure and assess entity and programme (non-financial) performance in contributing to Government policy objectives.

Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements)

Budget related paper detailing budget initiatives and explanations of appropriations specified by outcome and programme by each entity within a portfolio.

Programme Activity that delivers benefits, services or transfer payments to individuals, industry and/or the community as a whole, with the aim of achieving the intended result specified in an outcome statement.

Programme support

The entity running costs allocated to a programme. This is funded as part of the entity‘s departmental appropriations.

Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (PGPA Act)

The PGPA Act sets out the governance, performance and accountability of, and the use and management of public resources by, the Commonwealth, Commonwealth entities and Commonwealth companies, and for relate purposes.

Special Account Balances existing within the CRF, that are supported by standing appropriations (Public Governance, Performance and Accountability (PGPA) Act 2013, s78 and s80). Special Accounts allow money in the CRF to be acknowledged as set-aside (hypothecated) for a particular purpose. Amounts credited to a Special Account may only be spent for the purposes of the Special Account. Special Accounts can only be established by a written determination of the Finance Minister (s78 PGPA Act) or through an Act of Parliament (referred to in s80 of the PGPA Act).

Special Appropriations (including Standing Appropriations)

An amount of money appropriated by a particular Act of Parliament for a specific purpose and number of years. For special appropriations the authority to withdraw funds from the Consolidated Revenue Fund does not generally cease at the end of the financial year.

Standing appropriations are a sub-category consisting of ongoing special appropriations - the amount appropriated will depend on circumstances specified in the legislation.
