Details of the assets and liabilities of ACT Government Departments and Agencies are published in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and the requirements of the Financial Management Act 1996, the Annual Reports (Government Agencies) Act 2004, and the Chief Minister’s Annual Report Directions (which are endorsed by the Standing Committee on Public Accounts each year). Reports for 2009-10 will be tabled shortly in accordance with established procedures.
