1.3 - Analysis of Significant Trends#
Departmental Output Expenses
Expenditure on departmental output expenses has increased from $16.052 million in 2019/20 to $43.150 million in 2020/21. The budgeted amount then increases to $47.108 million in 2021/22. The fluctuations in expenditure are mainly due to increasing costs in 2020/21 and 2021/22 for preparations of the 2023 Census of Population and Dwellings.
The 2020/21 Budget comprises the second year of the 2023 Census ($39.533 million) and Services to Other Agencies ($3.617 million). The 2021/22 Budget comprises the third year of the 2023 Census Multi-Year Appropriation ($42.270 million) and Services to Other Agencies ($4.838 million).
Multi-Category Expenses and Capital Expenditure (MCA)
Expenditure for the Multi-Category Appropriation has increased from $134.784 million in 2019/20 to an estimated amount of $154.581 million in 2020/21 and a budget of $163.114 million in 2021/22.
The increase of $8.533 million between 2020/21 and 2021/22 is primarily due to:
- new funding for "securing the immediate and long-term sustainability of New Zealand's official statistics" ($6.620 million)
- an increase in 2021/22 of $4.700 million to ensure that Stats NZ can maintain current products and services, including maintaining "Statistical Products and Services, Data Services and Data System Leadership"
- additional funding for the Persistent Child Poverty Measure programme ($3.530 million)
- a decrease for one off 2020/21 COVID-19 Statistical Challenges funding ($2.855 million)
- a decrease due to the reduction of the capital charge ($43,000).
There are also a number of other changes which are detailed in Part 4 under Reasons for Changes in Appropriation.
The increase of $4.339 million in 2022/23 from 2021/22 is primarily due to the net effect funding for "Maintaining Statistical Products and Services, Data Services and Data System Leadership" (an increase of $6.100 million) and the Persistent Child Poverty Measure programme (an increase of $510,000) offset by the cessation of funding for "Securing the immediate and long-term sustainability of New Zealand's official statistics" (a decrease of $1.330 million) and the cyclical Household Economic Survey programme (a decrease of $853,000).

Note 1 - The number of releases for both statistical information service categories are provisional at the time of the publication of the Estimates. A difference between budgeted and actual numbers is a common occurrence as new surveys are started while others are stopped every year. The much higher Estimated Actual is due to the addition of weekly releases subsequent to the setting of the Final Budgeted Standard.
Note 2 - A data release is timely if it is available to customers within the period in which it remains useful. Planned timeliness is a design decision, based on trade-offs with accuracy, response rates and cost. The calendar of release dates for periodical statistical releases is published on the Stats NZ website at least six months in advance, and the achievement of the planned release dates is monitored as a timeliness performance measure.
Note 3 - This measure relates to the number of responses from households and individuals as a signal of digital inclusion and wellbeing as per the Digital Inclusion 2019 Action Plan - Government Chief Digital Officer.
Note 4 - During 2021/2022 Stats NZ will design a new method or tool, including proof of concept, to measure public and community trust and confidence in relation to emerging data collection and use issues across the system. This new measure will appear in the 2022/23 Estimates of Appropriation.
