Section 3 presents budgeted financial statements which
provide a comprehensive snapshot of the departments’ finances for the budget
year 2009-10. It explains how budget plans are incorporated into the
financial statements and provides further details of movements in administered
funds, special accounts and government indigenous expenditure.
The Resource Statement (Table 1.1) details the total
available appropriation available to the department from all sources. For
departmental operating appropriations this includes carry-forward amounts as well
as amounts appropriated at Budget. As the department incurs and is funded for
future liabilities (generally depreciation and employee entitlements), the
total amount of operating appropriation available to the department is unlikely
to be fully utilised in the Budget year. The Resource Statement includes detail
of the expected use of available resources in contributing towards the outcome
in the Budget year. Table 3.1.1 reconciles the total available appropriation
and amounts attributable to all outcomes.
3.1.2 Special Accounts
Special accounts provide a means to set aside and record
amounts used for specified purposes. Special Accounts can be created by a
Finance Minister’s Determination under the Financial Management and
Accountability Act 1997 or under separate enabling legislation. Table 3.1.2
shows the expected additions (receipts) and reductions (payments) for each
account used by the Department.
