Reasons for Change in Appropriation
This appropriation decreased by $0.741 million to $8.522 million for 2019/20 due to a one-off transfer of funding for $0.750 million to support the Residential Tenancy and Unit Title Services appropriation which has been experiencing higher than expected regulatory and service delivery costs. This was partially offset by the following:
- a $0.007 million increase to fund a new remuneration framework (Collective Employment Agreement), and
- a $0.002 million increase to reallocate funding for the implementation and on-going costs of a new payroll system (approved at Budget 2019) that better reflects where operational expenses will be incurred.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
This appropriation increased by $8.838 million to $10.798 million for 2019/20 due:
- a $8.037 million increase funding for the continuation of the Temporary Accommodation Services response to Covid-19
- a $0.800 million increase attributable to delays in the execution of a contract to procure portacabins, transferring funding from 2018/19 to 2019/20, and
- a $0.001 million increase to reallocate funding for the implementation and on-going costs of a new payroll system (approved at Budget 2019) that better reflects where operational expenses will be incurred.
