What?Extend the mandate as it applies to the departments, to the Crown agents currently expected to comply.

When?Effective 1 July 2014.

Why?The savings targets for the functional leadership currently include those from Crown agents.

Processes may differ between ministerial and board expectations relating to functional leadership initiatives and Crown entity board planning, decision making and approval processes. These differences may put ministerial savings expectations at risk.

Extending the mandate to Crown agents, while ensuring functional leadership and board processes are aligned, will mitigate this risk.

Functional Leadership for PropertyWoG Direction

Impact on staffThis direction will not have any impact on staff numbers. Crown agents will have the same requirement for property management capability internally.

Crown agents will have the option of commissioning the PMCoE to carry out their property management.

Impact on planningThe majority of Crown agents already act in accordance with the PMCoE and complete property plans. Strategic property plans are good practice and should be undertaken by Crown agents by default.

The consultation will gather information on planning, decision making and approval processes that the Crown agents consider are important to align.

Impact on funding and costsCrown agents will not lose property-related appropriation. Crown agents are already incorporated in the PCMoE’s cost recovery programme.

PMCoE can only recover fees from the Crown agents to the maximum value of 5% of the savings that Crown agent realises. The remaining 95% of savings realised must stay with the Crown agent.
