Total Appropriation 1,050 (400) 650

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

The decrease in this appropriation is due to an expense transfer to 2017/18. The estimates included $50,000 for ASB Polyfest and $1 million for Pacific Employment Support Services (PESS). The PESS contracts have been set up as two-year outcome funded contracts from 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2018. The outcomes will not be evenly spread over the two years with about $400,000 of the original 2016/17 spend now expected to be delivered in 2017/18.

Study and Training Awards for Business Development (M50)#

Scope of Appropriation

This is for the promotion of positive role models for young Pacific people in New Zealand and the provision of scholarships for further education.

Total Appropriation 350 8 358

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

The increase in this appropriation is due to a Fiscally Neutral Adjustment transfer of the entire $8,000 appropriation for "Welfare of Pacific Peoples in NZ" to the "Study and Training Awards for Business Development". The scope of these two lines is essentially the same except that the first also allows for grants for seed funding. The Ministry no longer sees a need for a benefit allowing grants for seed funding.

End of Year Performance Reporting

Performance information for this appropriation will be reported by the Ministry in the Annual Report.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

The net increase in this appropriation from the estimates of $54,000 is due to:

  • confirmation of an in-principle expense transfer from 2015/16 to 2016/17 of $100,000, and
  • sponsorship revenue from sponsors of the Prime Minister's Pacific Youth Awards of $21,000.

These increases are partially offset by:

  • the Ministry will be sharing a lease with Te Puni Kokiri (TPK) in Manukau. This move will now occur in July/August 2017 and there is an expense transfer of $50,000 from 2016/17 to 2017/18 for this
  • change in the capital charge rate from 8% to 6% of $17,000.
