Financial Management Act—instrument
Paper and statement by minister
MR BARR (Molonglo—Deputy Chief Minister, Treasurer, Minister for Economic Development, Minister for Sport and Recreation, Minister for Tourism and Events and Minister for Community Services): For the information of members, I present the following paper:
Financial Management Act, pursuant to section 47—Instrument of approval of guarantee—FRV Royalla Solar Farms Pty Limited, dated 31 August 2012.
I ask leave to make a statement in relation to the paper.
Leave granted.
MR BARR: Section 47 of the Financial Management Act 1996 entitles the Treasurer to approve a guarantee by the territory for the payment of money or performance of an obligation under a contract. The guarantee comes into effect if the Electricity Feed-in (Large-scale Renewable Energy Generation) Act 2011 is repealed, amended or has conditions imposed that amends the feed-in tariff entitlements. The guarantee extends for the period between the date of the grant of the feed-in tariff entitlement and 31 March 2034.
The guarantee entitles the proponent to be paid an amount by the territory to place it in an equivalent financial position as it would have been had the FIT entitlement not been varied. The undertaking does not include payment for losses of future earnings or profits. The guarantee was a necessary element to facilitate the proponent securing necessary financing, and I commend this instrument to the Assembly.
