Reasons for Change in Appropriation

The appropriation increased by $1.804 million to $29.431 million in 2013/14. The increase relates to:

  • an increase of $1.500 million funded from the Better Public Services Seed Fund for the establishment of a Centre of Excellence in Continuous Improvement
  • an increase of $1.823 million for expense transfers from 2012/13, primarily for Performance Improvement Framework development, the Central Agencies Shared Service development programme and Leadership Capability Deployment and Development, and
  • an increase of $1.074 million for expenses recovered from third party revenue, relating to staff secondments, enquiries into serious issues within the Public sector and other agency contributions to the Commission's work programmes.

The increases were offset by:

  • a decrease of $1.463 million due to Gateway and Major Project Monitoring activities transferred to the Central Agencies Single Portfolio Performance Management function in the Treasury, and
  • a transfer of funding from 2013/14 to out years for the Leadership Capability Deployment and Development programme ($500,000), the Centre of Excellence in Continuous Improvement ($400,000), vacancy savings to be applied to surge initiatives ($150,000) and the Performance Improvement Framework ($80,000).
