Financial Management Act—instrument
Paper and statement by minister
MS GALLAGHER (Molonglo—Treasurer, Minister for Health, Minister for Community Services and Minister for Women): I present the following paper:
Financial Management Act, pursuant to section 14—Instrument directing a transfer of funds from the Department of Territory and Municipal Services to the Chief Minister’s Department, including a statement of reasons, dated 24 and 25 March 2009.
I seek leave to make a short statement in relation to the paper.
Leave granted.
MS GALLAGHER: As required by the Financial Management Act, I table this instrument issued under section 14 of that act. Section 14 of the act, relating to transfer of funds between appropriations, allows the executive to direct the transfer of funds between appropriations. Section 14(4) of the act requires that, within three sitting days after the direction is given, the Treasurer must present to the Legislative Assembly a copy of the direction and a statement of reasons for giving that authorisation.
This instrument transfers $250,000 of departmental government payment for output from the Department of Territory and Municipal Services to departmental government payment for output for the Chief Minister’s Department. The appropriation provides funds for a joint feasibility study to be undertaken between the commonwealth government, ACT government and business groups to determine the viability and options for a new national convention centre by 2013. I commend the instrument to the Assembly.
