AGENCY ADDITIONAL ESTIMATES STATEMENTS

DEPARTMENT OF FAMILIES, COMMUNITY SERVICES AND INDIGENOUS AFFAIRS

Section 1: Agency Overview and Resources, Variations and Measures

There has been a significant change to the role of the Department of Families, Communities and Indigenous Affairs (FaCSIA) since the publication of the 2005-06 Portfolio Budget Statements as a result of the Administrative Arrangements Orders (AAO) issued on 27 January 2006.

In addition to its existing role of providing policy advice, income support and assistance to families and their children, senior citizens, people with disabilities, women and community groups, the department’s role now includes providing policy advice on Indigenous issues and coordinating whole-of-government policy development and service delivery in Indigenous affairs.

The department assumes responsibility for Indigenous affairs through the movement of the Office for Indigenous Policy Coordination and its responsibilities to FaCSIA from the former Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA).

Departmental appropriations do not yet fully reflect the transfer of funding resulting from the AAO issued on 27 January 2006. The relevant adjustments to FaCSIA funding and expenses will be detailed in the 2006-07 Portfolio Budget Statements following finalisation of transfers under Section 32 of the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997.

The FaCSIA outcome structure has been amended to include a new outcome reflecting the department’s new role in Indigenous Affairs. Table 1.1 shows the new outcome structure. The 2006-07 Portfolio Budget Statements will reflect any further changes to the outcome structure as a result of the AAO changes.

The department’s proposed appropriations are summarised in Table 1.2. The structure of the department’s outcomes and output groups is summarised at Figure 2.

Table 1.3 shows the total resourcing by outcome at the 2005-06 Budget and the 2005-06 Additional Estimates that includes administered appropriations, departmental appropriations, capital, non-appropriated administered expenses and departmental revenue from other sources.

Movement of Administered Funds Between Years

Commonwealth State Territory Disability Agreement – Respite for Older Carers

Funding of $0.10 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to support the Tasmania State bilateral agreement that was signed after 30 June 2005. In addition, $0.83 million in funding from 2006-07 has been moved to 2005-06 to provide a more even distribution of funding over the term of the measure.

Employment Assistance

Funding of $8.33 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to better reflect actual demand for assistance under the Business Services Assistance Package.

24


Family and Youth Support (National Illicit Drugs Strategy)

Funding of $0.35 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 and a further $0.35 million in funding has been moved from 2004-05 to 2006-07. Allocation of this funding to projects was delayed due to the AAO changes of 2004.

Tsunami Aftermath Assistance

Funding of $0.42 million funding has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to support the delayed uptake of estate management assistance and funeral or memorial assistance.

Ex gratia payment for former Temporary Protection Visa and Temporary Humanitarian Visa holders

Funding of $0.38 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to provide continued access to income support for a small number of people awaiting a Return Pending Visa.

Cross-portfolio Indigenous flexible funding pool

Funding of $0.56 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to allow outstanding projects to be completed.

Native Title and Land Rights

Funding of $0.13 million has been moved from 2004-05 to 2005-06 to finalise the Government’s commitment to fund a survey of Northern Territory Parks and Reserves.

AAO Changes

Due to the AAO changes of 2004, a number of programs moved between the FaCSIA portfolio and other portfolios. Further to those movements, transfers have been made to the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations of $0.04 million in relation to administered programmes and $6.14 million in departmental funds relating to compliance measures.

Additional changes arising from the AAO issued on 27 January 2006 are not included here as appropriations do not yet fully reflect the transfer of funding.

Other

This represents an aggregate figure for a number of minor adjustments to indexation and demand calculations.

BREAKDOWN OF ADDITIONAL ESTIMATES BY APPROPRIATION BILL

Tables 1.6 and 1.7 map the proposed variations to annual administered and departmental appropriations to Appropriation Bills (No. 3 and No. 4).

Appropriation Bill (No. 3) supplements Appropriation Act (No. 1) 2005–06, and includes funding for departmental expenses and existing administered outcomes, administered by the department on behalf of the Australian Government. The proposed variations to administered appropriations related to Appropriation Bill (No. 3) result an increase of $48.1 million for 2005–06. This is offset by a saving of $20.4 million against Appropriation Act (No. 1) 2005–06.

Appropriation Bill (No. 4) supplements Appropriation Act (No. 2) 2005–06, and includes funding for payments to state and territory governments, departmental and administered capital injections, and administered expenses. Appropriation Bill (No. 4) accounts for the remainder – an increase of $21.4 million – of the proposed variations for 2005–06.

ESTIMATES OF EXPENSES FROM SPECIAL APPROPRIATIONS

Revisions to estimated expenditure in 2005–06 for special appropriations are detailed in Table 1.11 and show a decrease of $94.9 million since the 2005–06 Budget. The variation largely reflects changes to Treasury forecasts of indexation parameters and reductions to estimates for Family Tax Benefit and Child Care Benefit.

The major factor driving the change in Treasury parameters is Male Total Average Weekly Earnings (MTAWE) producing increases to all pension payments. These increases were offset by a reduction in Family Tax Benefit to reflect an increased proportion of payments being made by the Australia Taxation Office rather than by Centrelink and a reduction of Child Care Benefit to reflect a slowing in customer growth and higher than projected customer incomes.
