MR BARR: As required by the Financial Management Act 1996 I table a number of instruments associated with sections 16B and 18 of the act. Advice on each instrument’s direction and a statement of reasons must be tabled in the Assembly within three sitting days after it is given. I table a total of eight instruments today for the following.

Section 16 of the FMA allows for the transfer of responsibility for a service or function from an entity for which an appropriation is made to another entity, and this package includes one instrument authorised under section 16 of the act. The instrument authorises the transfer of $3.976 million from the Treasury Directorate to the Commerce and Works Directorate for the management and responsibility of the first home owners grant and first home owners boost national partnership payments.

Section 16B of the FMA allows for appropriations to be preserved from one financial year to the next, as outlined in an instrument signed by myself as Treasurer. This package includes three instruments authorised under section 16B of the act. The first authorises a rollover of $705,000 in capital injection for the Exhibition Park
