See also Parliamentary Appropriation Act 1993; Business Franchise Licences (Petroleum Products)

Amendment Act 1993; Motor Vehicles Taxation (Amendment) Act 1993; Road Improvement (Special
Funding) Amendment Act 1993.

Appropriation Act 1993 No. 59

PREAMBLE

(1) It is necessary to appropriate from the Consolidated Fund various sums of money required for the ordinary services and the capital works and services of the Government during the current financial year.. The appropriation is determined in accordance with the Budget for 1993–94 which the Government has prepared on the basis of its medium term financial strategy.

The purpose of this preamble is to outline the key elements of the Budget in order to provide the proper context for the appropriation process. Further supporting details are provided in the various

Budget Papers that document the Budget (Budget Papers Nos. 1-6).

(2) Budget Objectives

The Budget is framed to address two objectives. achieving better value for money.
The first is the containment of debt by progressively reducing the
Budget deficit both in this and future Budgets. The initial target is
to reduce the Budget deficit to a level at which it is not increasing
the level of Budget Sector net debt in real terms, which is broadly a
deficit of $600 million per annum. Beyond the achievement of this
initial target the Government aims to reduce the level of debt and
will seek over time to achieve a balanced Budget. This objective
will be further addressed by selective, appropriate privatisations
such as that of the State Bank of New South Wales.

(3) Budget Strategy

The Budget strategy to achieve the two objectives consists of five elements.

containment of growth in Budget Sector current outlays

and achievement of value for money

First, Budget Sector current outlays are to be constrained to grow over the three year forward estimates period at or below the rate of price inflation, while undertaking initiatives to achieve better value for money. The level of Consolidated Fund support for current outlays has been determined by indexing for the projected price inflation, adjusting for special factors where appropriate and subtracting a productivity savings requirement. In the case of high priority areas of Government a productivity savings requirement has not been subtracted but the agencies are expected to achieve savings to reapply to areas of high priority and need.

Appropriation Act 1993 No. 59

The achievement of better value for money is directed at releasing resources for high priority needs within the constrained level of funding.

Specific initiatives to assist in this process include the contracting of government services, the development of benchmark information to assess performance and the negotiation of enterprise agreements with employees.
The projected savings from the contracting out of the Government

Cleaning Service have been included in the Budget estimates.

• containment of Budget Sector capital payments

Second, Budget Sector capital payments are to be reduced in
1993–94 relative to 1992–93 and capped thereafter for the two
forward years. This is in recognition of the substantial real increase
in funding that has occurred, addressing the previous backlog in

infrastructure, and having regard to the need to achieve the deficit

reduction target.

achievement of a commercially appropriate return from Government Trading Enterprises and State Owned Corporations

Third, continuing a consistent policy, the Government Trading Enterprises and State Owned Corporations are required to move towards a commercial rate of return on assets and pay to the tax payers an appropriate return in the form of dividends, tax equivalent payments and guarantee fees.

avoidance of increases in general taxes

Fourth, the Budget does not contain any general tax increases directed at funding the Budget, consistent with the strategy of restraining taxes to achieve an incidence of taxation at or below the Australian average.

phased implementation of full funding of superannuation

liabilities

Fifth, the Budget incorporates the phased implementation of full funding of superannuation in the Budget Sector. The Government’s current superannuation scheme, First State Super, which replaced the State Authorities Superannuation Scheme, is an accumulation scheme that is fully funded. The 1993–94 Budget provides $100 million above and beyond cash needs to increase the employer reserve. Over the period 1993–94 to 2004–2005, the Budget will contribute an additional $1 billion to increase employer reserves.

Appropriation Act 1993 No. 59

(4) Budget Assumptions

The Budget is framed on the basis of a range of assumptions relating to the economic environment and their impact on both payments and receipts. These economic assumptions and their implications are set out in detail in Chapter 2 of Budget Paper No. 2, ‘Budget Information’.

A particularly important assumption, in view of the size of employee entitlements in Budget Sector current payments, is the outcome of the wages determination process.

The Budget is based on the implementation of the Government’s .enterprise bargaining policy that involves an. increase of roundly 3.0 per cent in 1993–94. With an average starting date for the

increase at mid financial year, this is the equivalent of a 1.5 per the Olympic Games will be successful.
cent increase in 1993–94.

(5) Funding

The Budget is framed on the. basis of projected Budget receipts as set out in detail in Chapter 3 of Budget Paper No. 2, together with agency, own source revenue and asset sales. In summary the funding sources for the 1993–94 Budget are as follows:

$m

Current receipts

Taxes, fees and fines 9,233
Income from Non Budget Sector agencies 1,115
Commonwealth grants 6,411
Other 612
Total current receipts 17,371
Capital receipts
Commonwealth grants 1,056
Other 11
Total capital receipts 1,067
Total receipts 18,438
Other funding sources
User charges 1,306
Asset sales 109
Advances repaid to the Budget Sector 269
Total Funding Sources 20,122

Appropriation Act 1993 No. 59

In addition to realising the projections of receipts as set out in the Budget Papers, the achievement of the total level of funding is dependent on:

• Parliamentary approval to the indexation of petroleum

franchise licence fees and motor vehicle weight taxes in line

with increases in inflation, as set out in the Business
Franchise Licences (Petroleum Products) Amendment Bill 1993 and the Motor Vehicles Taxation (Amendment) Bill 1993 and to the increase in the car registration levy to fund the court costs of third party (motor vehicle) cases

• achievement of contributions from Government Trading

Enterprises, State Owned Corporations and other bodies

• the application of the untied Commonwealth road monies to general support of the Budget and the Government’s priorities

• the achievement of the projected agency own-source receipts, including from increased court fees and the Technical and Further Education administrative charge.

The Budget is also prepared on the assumption that the funding for any refinance of the HomeFund Scheme and the determinations of the HomeFund Commissioner will be met from identified surplus funds in the Building Services Corporation, the Rental Bond Board and the Real Estate Services Council. Other legislation will be necessary to transfer these funds to the housing portfolio for these designated purposes, with any surplus applied to housing matching funds under the Commonwealth-State Housing Agreement.

(6) Payments

The 1993–94 Budget incorporates both payments funded from the Consolidated Fund, appropriated by Parliament, and funding from agency own source receipts as set out below:

$m

Consolidated Fund

• appropriation for recurrent payments 17,756
• appropriation for capital payments 2,158

Other funding sources (agency user charges,

etc.) 1,098
Total payments 21,012
Appropriation Act 1993 No. 59

The total payments allow for the maintenance of service provision in the Budget Sector, supplemented by the reallocation of funding within portfolios to address priorities, including in the Health portfolio, and select enhancement funding. Details of enhancement funding are set out in Section 1.3 of Budget Paper No. 2.

The Government’s priorities in the provision of services are set out in Budget Paper No. 1 and include health, education and training, and social and community services.
