Reasons for Change in Appropriation#
This appropriation decreased by $7.709 million to $437.254 million in 2016/17. This decrease is due to:
- reduced funding of $5.850 million due to a reduction in Capital Charge
- carry forward of $4.378 million to future years reflecting the New Zealand Defence Force multi-year property maintenance programme forecast, and
- a transfer of $50,000 to the Special Annuities appropriation.
This was partially offset by:
- increased funding of $2.166 million for the 2017 Air Tattoo, and
- increased funding of $403,000 for a deployment to Fiji.
