Revenue from Others - 1,164 1,164

Reasons for Change in Appropriation#

This appropriation increased by $294,000 to $8.931 million for 2016/17 due to increased costs, funded by Revenue from Others, due to the commencement of the pre-acquisition stages of two acquisition projects, Littoral Operations Support Capability and Air Crew Training Capability, totalling $1.164 million . This is offset by reduced Revenue from the Crown, due to the transfer of $834,000 of some costs of implementing changes in the Capability Management Framework and its supporting processes and systems. An additional decrease of $36,000 is due to the reduction in the capital charge rate.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

This appropriation increased by $68.940 million to $329.469 million for 2016/17 due to recently approved projects managed by the Ministry entering the main production phase of the project, primarily Maritime Support Capability and Underwater Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, with consequent increases in milestone payments for contracted production. This was offset by timing and foreign exchange changes affecting a number of projects, leaving a net increase of $68.940 million.
