MR BARR: As required by the Financial Management Act 1996, I table a number of instruments issued under sections 14, 16, 16B and 18 of the FMA. Advice on each instrument’s direction and a statement of reasons must be tabled in the Assembly within three sitting days after it is given. I table a total of nine instruments today.

Section 14 of the FMA allows for the transfer of funds between appropriations, when endorsed by the executive. This package includes two such instruments. The first instrument facilitates the transfer of $1.513 million in net cost of outputs controlled appropriation to the capital injection controlled appropriation for the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate associated with the carbon-neutral government fund. The second instrument transfers $30,000 in net cost of outputs controlled appropriation to capital injection controlled appropriation within the Chief Minister and Treasury Directorate for work associated with the development of local government service applications to provide local information using mobile technology.

Subsections 16(1) and (2) of the FMA allow the Treasurer to authorise the transfer of appropriation for a service or function to another entity following a change in responsibility for that service or function. This package includes five such instruments that are budget neutral.

The first instrument facilitates the transfer of $2.618 million in net cost of outputs appropriation controlled for the national health care SPP health grant funding from the Health Directorate to the ACT Local Hospital Network.

The second instrument facilitates the transfer of $2.447 million in net cost of outputs controlled appropriation and $10.230 million of capital injection controlled appropriation from the Community Services Directorate to the Education and Training Directorate for childhood services and regulation.

The third instrument facilitates the transfer of $1.513 million in net cost of outputs controlled appropriation from the Territory and Municipal Services Directorate to the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate for the carbon-neutral government fund.

The fourth instrument facilitates the transfer of $634,000 in net cost of outputs controlled appropriation from the shared services centre to the Chief Minister and Treasury Directorate for the injury management and safety unit.
