USER GUIDE TO THE

PORTFOLIO ADDITIONAL

ESTIMATE STATEMENTS

USER GUIDE

The purpose of the 2015-16 Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements (PAES), like that of the Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements), is to inform Senators and Members of Parliament of the proposed allocation of resources to Government outcomes by entities within the portfolio. The focus of the PAES differs from the PB Statements in one important aspect. While the PAES include an Entity Resource Statement to inform Parliament of the revised estimate of the total resources available to an entity, the focus of the PAES is on explaining the changes in resourcing by outcome(s) since the Budget. As such, the PAES provides information on new measures and their impact on the financial and/or non-financial planned performance of programmes supporting those outcomes.

The PAES facilitate understanding of the proposed appropriations in Appropriation Bills (Nos. 3 and 4) 2015-16. In this sense the PAES is declared by the Additional Estimates Appropriation Bills to be a ‘relevant document’ to the interpretation of the Bills according to section 15AB of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.

Whereas the Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO) 2015-16 is a mid-year budget report which provides updated information to allow the assessment of the Government’s fiscal performance against its fiscal strategy, the PAES update the most recent budget appropriations for entities within the portfolio.

1.1  STRATEGIC DIRECTION STATEMENT

The Industry, Innovation and Science Portfolio was established by the Administrative Arrangements Orders of 21 and 30 September 2015. In addition to the strategic priorities identified in the 2015-16 Industry Portfolio Budget Statements, the department will also be leading the delivery of the Government’s National Innovation and Science Agenda.

Innovation and science are at the heart of the Government’s economic plan, and through the Agenda, the Government will invest $1.1 billion to incentivise innovation and entrepreneurship, reward risk taking, and promote science, maths and computing in schools to drive the smart ideas that create business growth, local jobs and global success.

The department also has a key role in delivering on the initiatives announced in the Government’s Our North, Our Future: White Paper on Developing Northern Australia, including through the establishment of the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility and the new headquarters for the Office of Northern Australia.

In addition to implementing the policies contained in these packages, the department will continue to focus on the Entrepreneurs’ Programme, Growth Centres, Cooperative Research Centres, helping businesses transition and offering streamlined programme delivery and service delivery arrangements, reflecting the department’s key role in transitioning industry and business to the new economy.

1.2  ENTITY RESOURCE STATEMENT

The Entity Resource Statement details the resourcing for the Department of Industry, Innovation and Science at Additional Estimates. Table 1.1 outlines the total resourcing available from all sources for the 2015-16 Budget year, including variations through Appropriation Bill No. 3 and No. 4, special appropriations and special accounts.
