CHAPTER 2 APPROPRIATIONS AND OUTCOMES REPORTING
2A Recognition of Appropriations
Policy Appropriations 2A.1 The earliest point of recognition and/or disclosure for appropriations is as follows: (a) for Appropriation Acts (No. 1) and (No. 2) and Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Act (No. 1) — the commencement of the financial period (e.g. 1 July); (b) for departmental special appropriations — when the obligation for which the special appropriation exists is incurred; (c) for administered special appropriations – when appropriation funds are transferred into an agency’s administered bank account. (d) for all other Appropriation Acts (except loan appropriations)— the date of royal assent; (e) for the increased appropriation provided by amounts received that are eligible section 31 receipts — as the revenue is earned; and (f) for other amounts determined by the Finance Minister (or delegate) or an Agency Minister or Presiding Officer under Part 3 Additions to basic appropriations of Appropriation Acts — the date of the determination or the date applicable as stated in the determination. 2A.2 For Authorities, all moneys received from the Commonwealth, excluding grants and non-operating annual appropriations are to be recognised as revenue. Additional disclosure in accordance with this Policy and Policy 2C of this Schedule is required as if they drew the funds from the Consolidated Revenue Fund. Departmental annual appropriations - Departmental outputs 2A.3 For departmental output appropriations, recognise the full amount appropriated for departmental outputs as revenue of the year of appropriation, adjusted by all applicable current year formal additions and reductions listed at Clause 2A.13 of this Policy. - Non-operating appropriations 2A.4 Subject to Clause 2A.8, departmental non-operating appropriations must be recognised and disclosed at the amounts in the Appropriation Acts, adjusted, where applicable, in accordance with Clause 2A.13 of this Policy. - Equity injections and returns 2A.5 Departmental equity injection appropriations must be recognised as a contribution by owners, increasing ‘Contributed Equity’ from the commencement of the period to which the appropriation applies, irrespective of when drawn down. Equity injections for appropriations in Acts passed after the commencement of the period for which the appropriation applies will be recognised from the date of royal assent. 2A.6 Departmental equity returns must be recognised as a return of capital in accordance with Clause 5B.5 of this Schedule, and not as a reduction in, or refund of, revenue. This will directly reduce ‘contributed equity’ from the time the return of capital is paid. 2A.7 Departmental equity injections or returns can include restructuring agreements resulting from a transfer of function (refer to Clause 5A.2 of this Schedule) and determinations of reductions in accordance with the Appropriations Acts (refer to Clause 5B.6 of this Schedule). - Loan appropriations 2A.8 Departmental loan appropriations must be recognised as increases in borrowings, when the appropriation is drawn down. They are not revenue. - Undrawn appropriations - purchasing/workload agreements 2A.9 Where an entity has undrawn appropriation which is required to be returned to Government under a purchasing, workload or other agreement, the entity must recognise the undrawn amount as a liability and not as a reduction in appropriation revenue. -Previous years’ outputs 2A.10 Where additional work is requested by government with funding to follow in the subsequent period, as ‘previous years outputs’, the agency may book a revenue and an appropriation receivable so long as the transaction is appropriately evidenced. Evidence will include at a minimum, written ministerial agreement. The subsequent appropriation for prior years’ outputs will reduce the appropriation receivable. Appropriations – adjustments to current year appropriation 2A.11 Formal additions or reductions to recognition of departmental appropriations occur when an entity has gained or lost the capacity to control the appropriation. Formal additions or reductions necessitate adjustments to recognition and/or disclosure of appropriations to the extent they have not already resulted in adjustments in previous years. 2A.12 To be a formal addition or reduction, the gain or loss of control must be evidenced in writing from the appropriate authority as outlined in Clause 2A.13 of this Policy. 2A.13 Departmental appropriations may only be adjusted, by formal additions or reductions, in the current year, for the current year, which are as follows: (a) appropriations under section 31 of the FMA Act; (b) transfers of appropriation under section 32 of the FMA Act; (c) other amounts (excluding section 31) determined by the Finance Minister (or delegate) or an Agency Minister or Presiding Officer under Part 3 Additions to basic appropriations of Appropriation Acts; (d) determination of reductions in accordance with the Appropriation Acts; (e) adjustments as stipulated by any agreement that provides for additional revenue for over delivery, such as purchasing, workload or other agreements; (f) adjustments made as a result of a decision by the Government, for an entity to provide additional outputs during the current financial period that will be provided for in the subsequent financial period; and/or (g) all other reductions (including savings approved during the year), made as a consequence of a policy of the Government, evidenced by a decision of the Cabinet or the Prime Minister. 2A.14 The agreements referred to in Sub-clause 2A.13(e) of this Policy must: (a) set out one or more quantifiable deliverable(s) and/or a specific amount of appropriation relating to each; and (b) be approved by, or arise from, Ministerial or cabinet decisions prior to the funding being given. Administered Annual Appropriations 2A.15 Administered appropriations must be disclosed when drawn down in the ‘Administered Reconciliation Table’ (in accordance with Clause 6A.3 of this Schedule), and not as revenue. -State Payment Items 2A.16 The funding for State payment items (Specific Purpose Payments to the States and Territories) shall be reported as administered appropriations. Special Appropriations – limited and unlimited 2A.17 Agencies must report the amounts appropriated in the current year, under limited and unlimited special appropriations for which they are responsible as follows: (a) for departmental special appropriations, recognise and disclose the amount appropriated as revenue when the obligation for which the special appropriation exists is incurred; and (b) for administered special appropriations, disclose in the ‘Administered Reconciliation Table’ the amount appropriated when it is transferred into an agency’s administered bank account. 2A.18 Where an Agency has paid money out of the CRF from a special appropriation that is not the ‘responsible entity’: (a) the ‘responsible entity’ must disclose the name of the entity to which it has given authority to act as its agent and apply the reporting requirements outlined at Clause 2A.19 of this Policy; and (b) the entity that has paid money out of the CRF against a special appropriation must disclose the name of the ‘responsible entity’ and apply the reporting requirements outlined at Clause 2A.20 of this Policy. 2A.19 The ‘responsible entity’ is to include the relevant details of its special appropriations in the following elements of its financial statements: (a) For administered special appropriations: (i) administered expenses as part of the Schedule of Administered Items in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (ii) administered assets and liabilities as part of the Schedule of Administered Items in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (iii) administered cash flows as part of the Schedule of Administered Items in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (iv) administered reconciliation table in accordance with Clause 6A.3 of this Schedule; (v) appropriation Tables C, D, E and F of Policy 2C of this Schedule (as appropriate); and (vi) where applicable, full disclosure of the relationship between the ‘responsible entity’ and the entity paying moneys from the CRF. (b) For departmental special appropriations: (i) departmental revenues and expenses as part of the Income Statement in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (ii) departmental assets and liabilities as part of the Balance Sheet in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (iii) departmental cash flows as part of the Cash Flow Statement in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule; (iv) appropriation Tables C, D, E and F of Policy 2C of this Schedule (as appropriate); and (v) where applicable, full disclosure of the relationship between the ‘responsible entity’ and the entity paying moneys from the CRF. 2A.20 An Agency paying moneys out of the CRF on behalf of a ‘responsible entity’ against a special appropriation must include relevant details of the special appropriation as a separate note in its financial statements as follows: (a) full disclosure of the relationship between the entity paying from the CRF and each ‘responsible entity’; and (b) for each special appropriation, the amount of receipts, subsequent payments from the CRF and the resulting balance of any moneys held using Table G of Policy 2C of this Schedule. 2A.21 Where an agent pays money out of the CRF on behalf of the ‘responsible agency’, the ‘responsible agency’ must ensure that systems and processes are in place to enable appropriate reporting of the special appropriation.
2B Departmental and Administered Items
Policy 2B.1 This Policy applies when determining the classification of an item as ‘departmental’ or ‘administered’ for the purpose of preparing accrual-based financial statements (i.e. for all reporting other than in the appropriation and Special Account disclosures notes required by Policies 2C and 2E of this Schedule). 2B.2 Subject to a reclassification by the Finance Minister of an item under Clause 2B.6 of this Policy, an amount explicitly described in an Act (including an annual Appropriation Act) as being ‘departmental’ or ‘administered’, is classified, for the purposes of accrual reporting in the financial statements as described in the Act. 2B.3 All amounts appropriated as State payment items (Specific Payments to the States and Territories) in the annual Appropriation Acts are to be classified as administered items for accrual reporting purposes in the financial statements. 2B.4 Other than as provided in Clauses 2B.2 and 2B.3 of this Policy, all other assets, liabilities, income, expenses, cash flows, contingencies and commitments will be classified as ‘departmental’ or ‘administered’ according to the following rules: (a) ‘Departmental items’ are those which the entity controls that are applied to the production of the entity’s own outputs; [1] and (b) ‘Administered items’ are those that the entity does not control and which are subject to highly prescriptive rules or conditions established by legislation, or Australian Government Policy, in order to achieve Australian Government outcomes. 2B.5 Specific reporting requirements apply in relation to trust moneys (refer to Policy 3C of this Schedule). 2B.6 Approval for classifications of new items and reclassifications of existing items is to be obtained from the Finance Minister or a person authorised by the Finance Minister.
2C Disclosures of Appropriations

In determining the amount to be disclosed for section 8 determinations, entities must disclose the amount the appropriation was reduced by (e.g. annual appropriation, less all adjustments such as section 32, less section 8 determination amount equals the amount of appropriation reduced by the section 8 determination). 3 As per Appropriation Act (No.1) 2005-2006, and where appropriate, Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Act (No.1) 2005-2006.
4 This item must be as per Appropriation Act (No.3) 2005-2006, and where appropriate, Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Act (No.2) 2005-2006.
5 Section 11 Appropriation Acts (No.1) and (No.3) 2005-2006 or section 13 of Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Acts (No.1) and (No.2) 2005-2006.
6 Section 12 Appropriation Acts (No.1) and (No.3) 2005-2006 or section 14 of Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Acts (No.1) and (No.2) 2005-2006. 7 This amount will be the current year amount of appropriation for departmental and/or administered items that was reduced by a section 9 for Act 1 and equivalent for Act 3 determinations by the Finance Minister before 30 June. 8 The amount recorded will be the amounts of GST appropriated during the reporting period (i.e. cash paid basis), but will need to exclude GST appropriated for payments to Special Accounts. This will allow for comparability between appropriation disclosure under this Policy and the disclosure of special accounts under Policy 2E of this Schedule. 9 Entities must disclose the appropriation receivable net of that amount for which the Finance Minister “withheld the drawing right” and separately disclose the amount of appropriation receivable whose drawing rights have been withheld. 10 Where an adjustment meets the recognition criteria of a formal reduction to an appropriation, in accordance with Clause 2A.15 of this Schedule, but at law the appropriation has not been reduced, the entity must disclose those amounts as an aggregate.
11 This item must equal the amount of appropriation promised to an entity to provide additional outputs in the current year with appropriation to be provided in the following year.
12 If an entity prefers, the comparative year information may be shown to the right of the current year columns. If this approach is taken, the more extensive current year disclosure requirements must be used for both years.
13 This table refers to the long title of Appropriation Acts 1 and 3, which is “An Act to appropriate money out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund for the ordinary annual services of the Government, and for related purposes”. This table includes Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) (No. 1) Act.
14 The “Represented by” lines in Table A and related footnotes 9-11 are intended to report a reconciliation between the balance of each appropriation legally available as at 30 June each year and the balances of cash and appropriations receivables for departmental items and the balance of cash in an agency’s administered bank accounts for administered items. Entities should report any other reconciling items if applicable.

In determining the amount to be disclosed for section 8 determinations, entities must disclose the amount the appropriation was reduced by (i.e. annual appropriation, less all adjustments such as section 32, less section 8 determination amount equals the amount of appropriation reduced by the section 8 determination). 5 As per Appropriation Act (No.2) 2005-2006, and where appropriate, Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Act (No.1) 2005-2006. 6 This item must be as per Appropriation Act (No.4) 2005-2006, and where appropriate, Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Act (No.1) and (No. 2) 2005-2006. 7 Section 12 Appropriation Act (No.2) and (No.4) 2005-2006 and section 13 of Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Acts (No.1) and (No.2) 2005-2006. 8 Section 13 Appropriation Act (No.2) and (No.4) 2005-2006 and section 14 of Appropriation (Parliamentary Departments) Acts (No.1) and (No.2) 2005-2006. 9 The amount recorded will be the amounts of GST appropriated immediately before payments are made (i.e. cash paid basis), but will need to exclude GST appropriated for payments from Special Accounts. This will allow for comparability between appropriation disclosure under this Policy and the disclosure of special accounts under Policy 2E of this Schedule. 10 This amount will be the current year amount of appropriation for departmental and/or administered items that was reduced by a section 9 for Act 1 and equivalent for Act 4 determinations by the Finance Minister before 30 June. 11 Entities must disclose the appropriation receivable net of that amount for which the Finance Minister “withheld the drawing right” and separately disclose the amount of appropriation receivable whose drawing rights have been withheld. 12 Where an adjustment meets the recognition criteria of a formal reduction to an appropriation, in accordance with Clause 2A.13 of this Schedule, but at law the appropriation has not been reduced, the entity must disclose those amounts as an aggregate. 13 This item must equal the amount of appropriation promised to an entity to provide additional outputs in the current year with appropriation to be provided in the following year.
14 If an entity prefers, the comparative year information may be shown to the right of the current year columns. If this approach is taken, the more extensive current year disclosure requirements must be used for both years.
15 To distinguish between appropriations in Table A, for Appropriation Act 1, 3 and Parliamentary Departments 1, this Table B refers to “Other than Ordinary Annual Services Appropriations”. (Refer to note 13, Table A of this Policy.)

1 Prepare a separate table for each Act, as current at reporting date. In the heading to the table: (a) identify whether the special appropriation is administered or departmental; and (b) disclose the outcomes it is associated with. If a departmental special appropriation includes both outputs and capital funding, please provide separate columns for each type. 2 For cross-referencing purposes, where an entity makes disclosures under this Table, and at least one other entity has drawn from the same special appropriation, the entity making disclosures under this Table must name those other entities by making the following statement: “(Other entity/entities) also drew from (special appropriation provision/s).” 3 Agencies must disclose the amount of limited special appropriations that under the terms of the appropriation lapse due to the passage of time. 4 The amount recorded for this item will be the amounts of GST appropriated immediately before payments are made (i.e. cash paid basis), but will need to exclude GST appropriated for payments from Special Accounts. This will allow for comparability between appropriation disclosure under this Policy and the disclosure of special accounts under Policy 2E of this Schedule.
5 The amounts recorded in this table are primarily on a cash basis. However, where indicated by an asterisk (*) the amount recorded should be an accrual amount.
6 Entities must disclose the appropriation receivable net of that amount for which the Finance Minister “withheld the drawing right” and separately disclose the amount of appropriation receivable whose drawing rights have been withheld.
7 Lapsed for time, or any other, constraints contained within the provisions of the special appropriations enabling legislation. In this instance, there remains an unspent appropriation that is no longer available. This amount should reduce the ‘Amount available carried to the next period’.

2C.2 The disclosures required by this Policy for appropriations, including special appropriations, are to be included, in the form specified, regardless of whether the relevant amounts are considered to be material. 2C.3 For special appropriations, a table must be prepared for each Act. 2C.4 For special appropriations, where an appropriation has not been drawn on in the current and the previous year, in place of completing the tables above, an entity may elect to make an abbreviated disclosure that includes all of the following: (a) whether the special appropriation is administered or departmental; (b) the legislative provision that provides the authority for the special appropriation; (c) the outcomes it is associated with; (d) the fact that the special appropriation was not drawn on in the current or previous year; and (e) for limited special appropriations, the balance available. 2C.5 Where there are material variances between the cash payments for the reporting period and the amount appropriated, otherwise authorised or estimated through Budget Estimates, entities should provide an explanation of those variances below the relevant Table. 2C.6 This Policy applies to both departmental and administered items. Appropriation for refunds required or permitted by law 2C.7 Each Agency must ensure they have a valid appropriation for all amounts drawn from the Consolidated Revenue Fund for refunds (including repayments) required or permitted by law. These refunds, which include repayments made under section 28 of the FMA Act, should be recognised and/or disclosed under their valid appropriation, and as required by Table D of this Policy. Investment of public money 2C.8 Each entity must recognise and/or disclose all public money invested in authorised investments under section 39 of the FMA Act or surplus funds under sections 18 and 19 of the CAC Act in Table E of this Policy. All money invested under a special account must also be disclosed in accordance with Policy 2E of this Schedule.

1) Paragraph 12.9 of AAS 29 Financial Reporting by Government Departments requires disclosure of administered revenues and expenses by ‘major activity’. 2) Outcomes are to be as specified in the Appropriation Acts relevant to the entity. 3) The amounts in the total column for administered items must agree to the entity’s totals in the Schedule of Administered Items. 2D.2 Entities must state, in footnotes to these Tables, whether the net costs shown include intra-government costs (e.g. rent paid on Australian Government owned premises or fees for service) that would be eliminated in calculating the actual Budget outcome. 2D.3 Entities preparing these tables must attribute shared items using a basis that most accurately allocates the total cost or income to each output or outcome. If this basis differs from that used in preparing the Budget, additional disclosure must be included to explain the variation. 2D.4 Where an output or outcome changes during the year, entities must: (a) match the changed output or outcome to accord with the adjusted output or outcome arrangements approved through the portfolio additional estimates process and published in an Appropriation Act; and (b) apportion the amounts disclosed between the new and former outputs or outcomes, based on the date that the Appropriation Act notifying the change received Royal Assent, so that entities report against the original outputs or outcomes up to the date of the change and against the revised outputs or outcomes after that date. 2D.5 The attribution method used to apportion shared items must be reliable and must be disclosed in the text accompanying the tables (see AAS 29 paragraph 12.7). 2D.6 This Policy applies to both departmental and administered items. 2D.7 The amounts disclosed must be net of refunds and adjustments.
2E Special Accounts
Policy 2E.1 Agencies must: (a) prepare a separate table for each Special Account used during the current year or comparative year; or (b) apply Clause 2E.3 of this Policy where the Special Accounts have not been used during the current year and comparative year; and (c) disclose the table/s or disclosure as required by Clause 2E.3 of this Policy, in the notes to the financial statements.

[Note: Where a Special Account was established by other Acts, the enabling legislation should also be disclosed.] 2) Where a Special Account’s status has changed during the year (e.g. established, varied, revoked or abolished), the nature and date of effect of each change should be included in the heading information. Where the nature of these changes are significant, consideration should be given as to whether two disclosure tables should be prepared for the “before” and “after” periods. 3) Each current year Appropriation Act should be reported on a separate line in the table and the total amount transferred and reported should agree with the Special Accounts disclosures as required by Policy 2C of this Schedule. 4) Major classes are as per the primary statements in Appendix A of this Schedule. Where legislation directly credits a Special Account with amounts, this table should include a line ‘Amounts credited under the (full name of) Act’. Where interest is credited to a Special Account, this table should include a line ‘Interest amounts credited’. Table B: Special Accounts Investment of Public Money 1, 2, 3

1 If a delegation has been made under section 39 of the FMA Act to the CEO of the Agency in respect of the Special Account, and that delegation has been used, the Agency must disclose the aggregate of all those transactions in this table. 2 Where an Agency has not used section 39 of the FMA Act in respect of the Special Account, that Agency may make the following statement in place of disclosing this table: “For the periods 2004-05 and 2005-06, (Agency) has not used section 39 of the FMA Act in respect of this Special Account.” 3 This Table must reflect investments made under section 39 of the FMA Act by the Agency in respect of this Special Account. 2E.2 Agencies that invest amounts standing to the credit of a special account, using a valid delegation of FMA Act section 39 investment powers, should disclose the net amount invested during the year in the text accompanying the Special Account table(s). 2E.3 Special Accounts which have not been used during the current year and comparative year, regardless of whether they have a nil or positive balance, may make the following disclosure instead of preparing the table at Clause 2E.1 of this Policy: (a) the Special Account’s title; (b) whether the account is administered, departmental or Special Public Money in nature; (c) the purpose of the Special Account; (d) the authority under which the Special Account was established; (e) a statement noting the Special Account has not been used during the current year and comparative year; and (f) the Special Account’s balance. 2E.4 Disclosures required by this Policy are to be included, in the form specified, regardless of whether the relevant amounts are considered to be material. 2E.5 This Policy applies to both departmental and administered items.
CHAPTER 3 ASSETS
3A Non-Financial Assets (previously Internal Use Software/Non-Current Assets/Impairment of Non-Financial Assets/Analysis of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangibles)
Policy Non-Financial Assets 3A.1 Subject to 3A.7, entities must revalue every class of assets that include assets of the types listed below, on the fair value basis ie the revaluation method under AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment, or the fair value model under AASB 140 Investment Property, as appropriate: (a) land; (b) land and buildings; (c) infrastructure, plant and equipment; (d) heritage and cultural assets; and (e) investment properties. 3A.2 In the absence of an active market the cost basis must be applied to intangible assets. Intangibles shall be carried at fair value where an active market exists. 3A.3 The cost basis must be applied to Specialist Military Equipment, subject to satisfactory compliance with the transitional provisions of AASB 1. 3A.4 Revaluations must be made with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of assets does not differ materially from fair value as at reporting date. The frequency of valuations will depend on the significance and volatility in changes to the fair value of the relevant assets. 3A.5 Non-financial assets may be revalued progressively. 3A.6 This Policy applies to both entity and administered assets. 3A.7 A for-profit entity or an Authority that is a university may elect not to apply the requirements at Policies 3A.1 to 3A.5. Impairment of Non Financial Assets 3A.8 Entities, or parts of entities, other than those whose predominant purpose is to generate net cash inflows, are not cash-generating units for the purpose of AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. Analysis of Property, Plant and Equipment, and Intangibles 3A.9 Notes to the financial statements must include the following listed tables, where applicable, in accordance with Appendix A: Table A: Reconciliation of the Opening and Closing Balances of Property, Plant and Equipment; Table B: Property, Plant and Equipment Held under Finance Lease; Table C: Property, Plant and Equipment under Construction; Table D: Reconciliation of the Opening and Closing Balances of Investment Property; Table E: Reconciliation of the Opening and Closing Balances of Intangibles; and Table F: Intangibles under Construction. Borrowing Costs 3A.10 Borrowing costs are to be expensed as incurred. The Alternative Treatment allowed under AASB 123 is not to be adopted.
3B Restricted Assets
Policy 3B.1 Where the use of an asset that is recognised in the Balance Sheet and/or Schedule of Administered Items is restricted, wholly or in part of, by regulations or other externally-imposed requirements, and information about those restrictions is relevant to assessing the performance or financial position of the entity, the following must be disclosed: (a) the identity and carrying amount of the assets; and (b) the nature of the restrictions. 3B.2 Where the use or holding of an asset is subject to restrictions, the fair value ascribed to that asset should reflect those restrictions. 3B.3 This Policy applies to both entity and administered assets.
3C Assets Held in Trust
Policy 3C.1 The financial statements of entities must include a note giving particulars of assets, cash and non-cash, held in trust but not controlled by the entity nor managed on behalf of the Australian Government. 3C.2 A summary of the categories of assets held at the end of the reporting period and the purpose for which they are being held must be disclosed for assets referred to in Clause 3C.1. 3C.3 In relation to cash assets, there must be disclosed, for each significant category, the: (a) total amount held at the beginning of the reporting period; (b) total receipts during the reporting period; (c) total payments during the reporting period; and (d) total amount held at the end of the reporting period: (i) by the entity; and (ii) in the Official Public Account. 3C.4 In relation to non-cash assets, there must be disclosed, for each significant category: (a) a short description of each category; (b) the value of assets acquired or disposed of during the reporting period; and (c) the value of assets at the end of the reporting period.
3D Heritage And Cultural Assets
Policy 3D.1 Heritage and cultural items should only be recognised as assets where they meet the asset definition and recognition criteria set out in the AASB Framework for Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements (Framework). 3D.2 Heritage and cultural assets should be depreciated over the period they will be held and used. Heritage and cultural assets should not be depreciated if there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which they are held and used. 3D.3 When an entity controls or administers heritage and cultural items that are not recognised as assets, the notes to the financial statements must disclose: (a) a description of those items; (b) the reason for non-recognition of those items; (c) the amount expended to acquire such items during the financial year; and (d) the amount of proceeds from the disposal of such items during the financial year. 3D.4 This Policy also applies to those components of assets that have heritage or cultural value, where these can be separately identified from, and are material in relation to, the asset as a whole. 3D.5 This Policy applies to both entity and administered items where applicable.
CHAPTER 4 LIABILITIES
4A Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets
Policy 4A.1 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets that can be reliably measured must be included in the Schedule of Contingencies, in accordance with Appendix A of this Schedule, except where the probability of a liability or asset being recognised in the future is remote. Equivalent disclosure for administered contingent liabilities and contingent assets must be included in the Schedule of Administered Items. 4A.2 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets must be classified in accordance with the categories in the Schedule of Contingencies. Material remote contingent liabilities and contingent assets must be explained in a note to the financial statements that includes the information referred to in paragraphs 86 and 89 of AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. 4A.3 The reference in paragraph 92 of AASB 137 to ‘entity’ must be read as ‘the entity, another Australian Government entity or the Australian Government as a whole’.
4B Commitments
Policy 4B.1 Commitments are: (a) intentions to create liabilities, as evidenced by undertakings or agreements to make future payments to other entities; and (b) unrecognised liabilities that are obligations contained in a contract, agreement or undertaking that are equally proportionately unperformed, except where the obligation is an onerous contract as defined in AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. 4B.2 The nature, and where quantifiable the amount, of each category of commitments must be disclosed in a Schedule of Commitments in accordance with the tables in Appendix A. Equivalent disclosure for administered commitments must be included in the Schedule of Administered Items. 4B.3 Commitments may be capital, non-capital, payable or receivable. 4B.4 The provisions of this Policy apply to both entity and administered items.
4C Employee Entitlements (New Policy)
Policy 4C.1 This Policy is based on the requirements of AASB 119 Employee Benefits as issued in December 2004. All entities are required to early adopt this version of AASB 119 Employee Benefits. 4C.2 Entities must identify any annual leave that is not expected to be consumed within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service and ensure it is discounted in accordance with AASB 119. 4C.3 Entities with less than 1,000 full-time equivalent employees (FTE) may continue to use the shorthand method when calculating long-service leave liability. 4C.4 Entities with more than 1,000 FTE are to undertake their own assessments to estimate the liability for long service leave. The method of doing this would be one of the following: (a) if the entities employee profile is, demonstrably, not materially different than the Australian Government’s standard profile use the shorthand method; (b) undertake an actuarial assessment ; or (c) use a detailed calculation basis (eg. employee by employee). 4C.5 Public Finance Corporations (PFCs), Government Business Enterprises (GBEs) and Air Services Australia can apply any of the three recognition options for actuarial gains and losses for defined benefit plans. All other entities are to apply the “direct to retained profit” option of recognising actuarial gains and losses for defined benefit plans. This is applicable to entity and administered items. 4C.6 Defined benefit post employment plans where the actuarial and investment risk falls to other parties are considered defined contribution plans. Whilst the CSS, PSS Defined Benefit Plans and MSBS are defined benefit plans at the whole-of-government level, agencies contributing to these schemes are to account for these contributions under AASB 119 as if they were defined contribution plans. 4C.7 Entities that have been advised by Finance that they will have an additional employer lump sum contribution should show a liability for this amount at balance date. 4C.8 The new PSS Accumulation Plan is considered a Defined Contribution Plan from the point of view of both agencies and at the whole-of-government level. 4C.9 Plans where the actuarial risk falls on the agency must be accounted for as defined benefit plans. 4C.10 The market yield on long-term government bonds must be referenced when determining a discount rate for discounting purposes.
CHAPTER 5 EQUITY
5A Restructure
Policy 5A.1 Where restructures have occurred during the reporting period, the financial statements of entities must include a note giving particulars of the restructure. 5A.2 Non-reciprocal transfers of assets and liabilities resulting from a restructure between: (a) wholly owned Australian Government entities; or (b) departmental and administered classifications due to: (i) an Australian Government decision; (ii) an Administrative Arrangements Order (AAO); (iii) an Act of Parliament or a Regulation under an Act; or (iv) a Written Agreement between the relevant Portfolio Minister(s) and the Finance Minister or the Prime Minister, as appropriate; are to be treated as contributions by, or distributions to, owners and must be recognised as direct adjustments to ‘Equity’ (Restructuring) at their net book value (less any token consideration) immediately prior to transfer. For the purposes of UIG Interpretation 1038 Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities, Clauses 5A.2(b)(i) to (iv) of this Policy are formal designations of transfers as contributions by or distributions to owners. 5A.3 Paragraphs 7.4, 10.6 – 10. 9 of AAS 29 Financial Reporting by Government Departments apply to all Australian Government agencies. 5A.4 Transfers of administered assets or liabilities between two wholly owned Australian Government entities do not result in any income or expenses. Transfers of administered items must always be adjusted to Administered transfers to or from Government (Restructuring) at their net book value immediately prior to transfer. 5A.5 All other transfers of assets and liabilities from one entity to another must be treated as giving rise to income or expenses in the financial period the transfer occurs. 5A.6 This Policy applies to entity and administered items.
5B Return of Funds (previously Analysis of Equity)
Policy Returns on Capital - Dividends 5B.1 Where legislation provides that a Minister(s) may determine the amount to be paid as a dividend or similar distribution from a wholly-owned Australian Government entity, with or without recommendation or proposal from the entity, the entity must recognise a liability for that dividend or distribution at the date of the Ministerial determination. 5B.2 Where the entity is required to pay its full profit for the year to the Australian Government, a liability must be recognised for an amount equal to profit for the current year as at the entity’s reporting date. 5B.3 Where any entity is required to pay its profit for the year to the Australian Government after the deduction of certain amounts, a liability for dividend must be recognised if those amounts are known before the date of completion of the financial statements. If these amounts are not known before this date, the entity should instead disclose a contingent liability. Repayments of Appropriations 5B.4 Where an Agency makes payments to the Official Public Account (OPA) in the nature of repayments of amounts drawn down but does not relinquish the right to redraw those amounts, the entity should account for this by increasing ‘Appropriations Receivable’. Such payments are neither returns on capital nor returns of capital. Returns of Capital 5B.5 Where an entity relinquishes control of funds which had been recognised as appropriation revenue in a previous year, by making a non-reciprocal payment to the Official Public Account, other than as a dividend (as provided in Clauses 5B.1 to 5B.3 of this Policy, or otherwise), the entity shall account for the payment by debiting ‘Equity’. 5B.6 An entity shall recognise a debit to ‘Equity’, as required by Clause 5B.5 of this Policy, when a departmental appropriation is reduced pursuant to a determination of reduction in accordance with Appropriation Acts, to the extent the entity has not previously recognised a debit entry evidencing control of the appropriation has been relinquished. Timing of recognition 5B.7 Reductions in ‘Equity’ under Clauses 5B.5 and 5B.6 of this Policy are recognised in the financial statements of the entity: (a) if they are required by Ministerial direction, at the date of that direction; (b) if they are reductions to departmental appropriations pursuant to a determination of reduction in accordance with Appropriation Acts, at the date of that direction; or (c) in all other cases, at the date that payment is made.
CHAPTER 6 ADMINISTERED ITEMS
6A Administered Reporting
Policy 6A.1 The financial statements of an entity which administers activities for the Australian Government must include a Schedule of Administered Items and associated Administered Notes: (a) is in the form prescribed in Appendix A Section 3 of this Schedule; (b) includes the Administered Reconciliation Table in accordance with Clause 6A.3 of this Policy; (c) includes disclosures in relation to accounting policies and financial instruments in accordance with the relevant accounting standards, and (d) uses background shading for the Schedule of Administered items and Administered Notes. The Australian Office of Financial Management (AOFM) is excluded from the requirement to present a ‘Schedule of Income Administered on Behalf of Government’ and a ‘Schedule of Expenses Administered on Behalf of Government’ and associated disclosures as presented in Appendix A, Section 3. AOFM should instead adhere to the income statement reporting requirements contained in AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements. 6A.2 The Schedule of Administered Items and Administered Notes must: (a) to the extent that it is applicable, comply with Policy 1B of this Schedule; (b) comply with all applicable requirements of this Schedule; and (c) state in the heading of or as a footnote to the Schedule of Administered Items a brief description of the activities being administered on behalf of the Australian Government. 6A.3 Administered Reconciliation Table

6B Administered Investments
Policy 6B.1 “Administered investment” is defined for the purpose of this Policy as an investment by the Australian Government in a subsidiary, associate or joint venture that is managed by an entity on behalf of the Australian Government. 6B.2 Administered investments, other than those held for sale in accordance with AASB 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, should be measured at fair value. If it is necessary to use cost or deemed cost, in accordance with paragraph 19 of AASB 1, the fair value approximation of cost to be used is fair value at 30 June 2005 as adjusted for known changes, such as changes in equity, during the year ended 30 June 2006. For the purposes of paragraph 19 of AASB 1, the transition to AEIFRS and the changes in valuation requirements are considered to be a significant event. Impairment 6B.3 Administered investments, other than those held for sale or carried at fair value, are subject to impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. 6B.4 For the purposes of AASB 136, the depreciated replacement cost of an administered investment is equal to the Commonwealth’s share of the net assets of the investee measured in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards applicable to the investee. Administered Investments Held for Sale 6B.5 Administered investments are subject to the measurement provisions of AASB 5 when they become held for sale as defined in that Standard. 6B.6 The costs of sale of an administered investment are expensed as incurred, regardless of whether the investment meets the criteria to be ‘held for sale’ in AASB 5. Costs of sale are not added to the carrying amount of administered investments. 6B.7 The following particulars must be disclosed in the administered notes for each sale of an administered investment: (a) proceeds from sale; (b) written down value of the asset sold; (c) recognised gain or loss on sale; (d) selling costs incurred; and (e) the net gain or loss after deducting selling costs incurred.
CHAPTER 7 SPECIFIC NOTE DISCLOSURES
7A Compensation and Debt Relief in Special Circumstances
Policy 7A.1 Disclosures under this Policy must be made regardless of whether the relevant amounts are considered to be material. 7A.2 The financial statements must include a note showing any expenses and/or liabilities in relation to each of the following: (a) act of grace payments made under subsection 33(1) of the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997 (FMA Act); (b) waivers of debt owing to the Australian Government, (being amounts that the entity would, but for the waiver, have been entitled to receive on behalf of the Australian Government); (i) pursuant to subsection 34(1) of the FMA Act; and (ii) pursuant to other legislation, which must be specified; (c) payments under the Compensation for Detriment caused by Defective Administration (CDDA) Scheme; (d) payments under approved ex-gratia programmes, the nature of which must be identified; and (e) payments in special circumstances relating to APS employment pursuant to section 73 of the Public Service Act 1999 (PS Act). 7A.3 The note must disclose the number of cases and total amount expensed during the reporting period under each of the mechanisms specified at Clause 7A.2. In addition, where any of the act of grace cases expensed during the reporting period include periodical payments for specified periods (paragraph 33(1)(b) of the FMA Act refers), the note must separately identify the number of such cases and the total amount expensed in relation to those cases. 7A.4 The note must disclose the number and aggregate present value amount of those cases relating to any provisions at the end of the reporting period under each of the mechanisms specified at Clause 7A.2. This requirement is particularly relevant where cases under the act of grace mechanism include periodical payments for specified periods past the reporting date, but may also apply to any of the other mechanisms in particular circumstances. 7A.5 Each disclosure required by this Policy must be cross-referenced with other relevant notes, and/or schedules, as applicable. 7A.6 This Policy applies to departmental and administered items, which must be distinguished in the relevant note.
7B Director/Executive Remuneration
Policy 7B.1 Disclosures under this Policy must be made by Australian Government entities. For-profit entities are exempt from this Policy, as they are already required to disclose information in accordance with AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures. 7B.2 The following must be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of an Authority: (a) the number of Directors of the Authority whose total remuneration for the financial year derived from the Authority in connection with the management of the affairs of the entity or its subsidiaries, whether as a Director or otherwise, falls within each band of $15,000; (b) the total of the remuneration referred to in paragraph (a) of all Directors referred to in that paragraph; and (c) the consolidated financial statements must include in a note the total of the remuneration of all Directors of each entity in the economic entity, comprising the Authority and its subsidiaries, for the financial year. 7B.3 The following information must be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements in regard to the remuneration of senior executives: (a) the aggregate remuneration of all senior executives of the entity whose remuneration for the financial year is $130,000 or more; and (b) the number of managers of the entity whose total remuneration for the financial year falls within each successive $15,000 band, commencing at $130,000; being remuneration received or due and receivable, directly or indirectly, from the entity or any related party in connection with the management of the affairs of the entity or any of its subsidiaries, whether as a senior executive or otherwise. 7B.4 The following information must be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of an economic entity where an Agency or Authority is the parent entity in the economic entity: (a) the aggregate remuneration of all senior executives of the economic entity whose remuneration for the financial year is $130,000 or more; and (b) the number of managers of the economic entity whose total remuneration for the financial year falls within each successive $15,000 band, commencing at $130,000; being remuneration received or due and receivable, directly or indirectly, from the entities in the economic entity or a related party in connection with the management of the affairs of the entities in the economic entity, whether as a senior executive or otherwise. 7B.5 In addition to all other requirements of this Policy, the aggregate amount of separation and redundancy expenses for senior executives should be disclosed separately.
7C Remuneration of Auditors
Policy 7C.1 Disclosures under this Policy must be made regardless of whether the relevant amounts are considered to be material. 7C.2 The financial statements of an entity must include a note giving particulars of the remuneration of auditors for: (a) auditing the financial statements for that reporting period; and (b) any other services provided during that reporting period. 7C.3 The fair value of any of the services provided free of charge by the Auditor-General must be shown in the notes to the financial statements. For the purpose of this Policy, performance audits are not taken to be services provided to an entity. 7C.4 Authorities must disclose the extent to which auditors’ remuneration is paid to an auditor other than the Auditor-General.
7D Investment of Surplus Money by Authorities (New Policy)
Policy 7D.1 The financial statements of an Authority must include a note giving particulars of any investments held that are not covered by paragraphs 18(3)(a)-(c) of the Commonwealth Authorities and Companies Act 1997 (CAC Act). 7D.2 Details should include the statutory basis for holding additional investment(s) outside those allowed under paragraphs 18 (3)(a)-(c) of the CAC Act, including whether an approval has been received by the authority under paragraph 18(3)(d) of the CAC Act.
CHAPTER 8
8A Financial Instruments (New Policy)
Policy 8A.1 AEIFRS give entities a choice over whether to restate comparative (i.e. 2004-05) information on financial instruments in the first financial report prepared under AEIFRS. For consistency across government, this Policy prohibits restatement. Instead, entities should make the additional disclosures required by paragraph 36A of AASB 1 First Time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards viz: (a) the fact that comparatives have not been restated; (b) the recognition and measurement basis for the comparative information; and (c) the nature of the main adjustments that would be necessary to conform the comparative information to AEIFRS. Public Finance Corporations (PFCs) may choose not to apply this policy, if by its non-application, more useful financial information results. 8A.2 On initial adoption of AEIFRS, an entity must classify all financial instruments that are traded in markets as either: (a) available-for-sale financial instruments; or (b) held at fair value through profit and loss, where these classifications are permitted by AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, unless it is a financial liability resulting from the issue or reissue of Australian currency notes, in which case it should be classified in accordance with AASB 139. Where an accounting standard or other financial framework document requires an entity to make a designation to adopt a particular accounting treatment, a designation made during the 2005-06 financial year is deemed to be effective on 1 July 2005 unless stated otherwise or could not be effective on that date in the particular circumstances. The designation of financial instruments by agencies will have the affect of designating those instruments in the consolidated whole of government accounts. 8A.3 Where an entity first recognises, after the beginning of the first AEIFRS reporting period, a financial instrument that is traded in a market, the entity must classify it as set out in clause 8A.2 of this Policy. 8A.4 All impairment losses on financial instruments under AASB 139 should be debited to a separate account, rather than being debited directly against the carrying amount of assets. A separate account must be maintained for each class of financial asset. 8A.5 Where AASB 139 allows entities to choose between: (a) capitalising gains and losses on hedges into the carrying amount of the underlying assets; and (b) progressively transferring such gains and losses from equity to income or expense, entities should adopt the former treatment in all cases. 8A.6 Where an entity has held derivative financial instruments at any time during the period, it shall disclose: (a) its objectives for holding or issuing those derivatives; (b) the context needed to understand those objectives; and (c) the strategies for achieving those objectives. Note: Entities’ ability to enter into hedging or derivative arrangements is bound by their legislative framework and relevant government policies.
