Reasons for Change in Appropriation
This appropriation increased by $482,000 to $31.325 million. This is due to the net of:
- $400,000 carried forward from 2014/15 (increase)
- $263,000 of additional revenue from third parties (increase)
- $100,000 reprioritised to elsewhere within the Vote to meet forecast costs (decrease), and
- $81,000 transferred to Vote Finance for the Budget 2015 system package of initiatives (decrease).
In addition to the above, $300,000 of funding was reprioritised from Policy Advice to the two other categories to reflect forecast expenditure as the costs varied due to changing circumstances during the year.
