1.3 - Analysis of Significant Trends#

Output Expenses

The fluctuating trend for the Output Expense is due to:

the impact of the Canterbury earthquake costs, and
the implementation of the KiwiBuild Programme from 2017/18.

Benefits or Related Expenses

The increasing trend for Benefit or Related Expenses is due to:

the uptake of the KiwiSaver First Home Deposit Subsidy scheme, and
from 2014/15 funding was increased to take effect of the KiwiSaver HomeStart grant policy proposals.

Other Expenses

The decreasing trend for Other Expenses is due to:

the introduction of the Weathertight Direct Payment Unwind Discount Rate in 2011/12 at $27 million decreasing to around $2 million in out years
the funding profile for the Wellington City Council Housing Package from 2008/09 to 2015/16
the transfer of unspent funds in the Social Housing Fund multi-year appropriation in 2013/14 and 2014/15, and
the Social Housing Fund multi-year appropriation expires in 2016/17.

Capital

The fluctuating trend for Capital Expenditure is due to:

the purchase of New Zealand Defence Force land by the Hobsonville Land Company in 2013/14
funding to facilitate housing development in Christchurch and Auckland from 2014/15, and

the implementation of the KiwiBuild Programme from 2017/18.

Multi-Category Output Expenses

The fluctuating trend for the Multi-Category Output Expenses is due to:

funding being reprioritised in 2015/16 from Weathertight Services to provide primary and secondary advice in the fields of building and housing policy.
