Scope of Appropriation

This appropriation is limited to the provision of information and regional and sector engagement on labour market effectiveness and employment.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

This appropriation decreased from $3.429 million to $2.789 million as a result of a fiscally neutral transfer of $570,000 to the Tertiary Education Commission for the Skills Highway Programme and a retention of underspend of $200,000 towards funding of transition and implementation costs for the new Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.

This was partially offset by an expense transfer of $56,000 from 2011/12 for the Corporate Model Implementation Project (Phase Two) and a retention of underspend of $74,000 from 2011/12 for funding of transition and implementation costs for the new Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.
