Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The appropriation will increase by $621,000 in 2011/12. The reasons for the change relates to the following:
- $1 million to provide for administration costs of scoping and managing the establishment of the Advanced Technology Institute. The funding was provided through a fiscally neutral adjustment from the Non-Departmental Fellowships for Excellence output expense.
- Revenue from Other has reduced by $379,000 due to a reduction in Contract Management services fees.
