Financial Management Act—instruments

Papers 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 papers:

Financial Management Act—Instruments, including statements of reasons, pursuant to—

Section 14—Directing a transfer of funds within the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate, dated 23 and 27 May 2014.

Section 16—Directing a transfer of appropriations from the Justice and Community Safety Directorate to the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate, dated 23 May 2014.

I ask leave to make a statement in relation to the papers.

Leave granted.

MR BARR: As required under the FMA, I table two instruments issued under sections 14 and 16, advice on each instrument’s direction and a statement of reasons as required to be tabled in the Assembly within three sitting days after it is given. Subsections 16(1) and (2) of the FMA allow the Treasurer to authorise the transfer of appropriation for a service or function to another entity.

I present one section 16 instrument today in relation to the carbon neutral fund which transfers $41,137 in net cost of outputs appropriation from the Justice and Community Safety Directorate to the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate.

Section 14 of the FMA allows for the transfer of funds between appropriations, as endorsed by myself and another minister. I present one such instrument today transferring $41,137 from the Environment and Sustainable Development Directorate’s net cost of outputs appropriation to a capital injection controlled appropriation, again—as the amount is identical—in relation to the carbon neutral fund.

Additional details regarding all instruments are provided in the statement of reasons accompanying the instruments I have tabled today.
