Part 2 - Details of Departmental Appropriations#

2.1 - Departmental Output Expenses#

Data Futures Partnership (M67)

Scope of Appropriation

This appropriation is limited to enabling the activities of the Data Futures Partnership.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

This appropriation increased by new funding of $1.134 million to $2.134 million for 2016/17 to strengthen New Zealand's data eco-system.

Services to Other Agencies RDA (M67)#

Scope of Appropriation#

This appropriation is limited to the provision of services by Statistics New Zealand to other agencies, where those services are not within the scope of another departmental output expense appropriation in Vote Statistics.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation#

The net increase in this revenue dependent appropriation of $1.154 million to $3.500 million for 2016/17 is due to a $1.207 million increase resulting from changes in the shared accommodation arrangements in Christchurch and Wellington. This is partially offset by the return of a baseline contribution of $53,000.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation

This appropriation increased by $18.461 million to $129.984 million for 2016/17 due to:

  • one-off funding of $15 million for costs related to the North Canterbury earthquake
  • a fiscally neutral capital to operating swap of $2.600 million for changes in as-a-service technology costs classified as operating rather than capital
  • one-off funding of $1.289 million to optimise office space under the Wellington Accommodation Project Tranche 2, and
  • one-off funding of $1 million for improving the timeliness of the Regional Gross Domestic Product.

This is partially offset by the return of a baseline contribution of $828,000 and a fiscally neutral expense transfer of $600,000 to 2017/18.
