Notes to the Budget Statements
Significant variations are as follows:
Operating Statement 
•	government payment for outputs: 
•	the increase of $0.796 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to:
•	additional funding provided by 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriation ($0.688 million); and
•	additional funding provided by Treasurer’s Advance for ($0.895 million);
partially offset by:
•	transfer of appropriations under the Financial Management Act 1996 ($0.176 million); and
•	rollovers of 2008-09 funding to 2009-10 ($0.595 million);
•	the decrease of $5.726 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to:
•	cessation of funding from 2008-09 for prior year initiatives ($6.832 million), Treasurer’s Advance ($0.895 million) and 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriation ($0.688 million);
•	removal of one-off impact of AAO transfers in 2008-09 ($0.176 million); and
•	decrease in funding for ongoing initiatives from 2008-09 Budget ($1.924 million);
partially offset by:
•	impact of rollover of 2008-09 funding of initiatives to 2009-10 ($1.190 million);
•	funding provided for new initiatives for 2009-10 ($3.276 million);
•	increase in funding for ongoing initiatives from the 2008-09 Budget ($0.291 million); and
•	the transfer of $0.055 million for Community Engagement from the Department of Disability, Housing and Community Services.
•	employee expenses:  the increase of $0.172 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to the Nation Building and Jobs Plan Taskforce ($0.412 million) and Community Engagement transfer ($0.045 million), partially offset by the transfer of Work Safety Legislation to JACS ($0.285 million).
•	superannuation expenses:  the decrease of $0.205 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to change in notional superannuation rates.
•	supplies and services:
•	the increase of $2.356 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to:  the 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriation ($0.688 million), Treasurer’s Advance ($0.125 million), transfer of appropriations under the Financial Management Act 1996 ($0.084 million) and reclassification of grant expenses ($1.890 million) partially offset by rollovers to 2009-10 ($0.422 million).
•	the decrease of $1.315 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to:
•	cessation in funding associated with the 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriation ($0.688 million), Treasurer’s Advance ($0.125 million) and initiatives from 2008-09 ($1.214 million);
•	removal of one-off impacts from the transfer from TAMS of the Convention Centre Trust Fund ($0.250 million) and Shop in Canberra ($0.050 million); and
•	decreased funding associated with previous year’s initiatives ($1.820 million);
partially offset by
•	new initiatives for 2009-10 ($2.135 million); and
•	increased funding for ongoing initiatives ($0.681 million).
•	depreciation and amortisation:  the increase of $0.238 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome reflects capital additions from current and prior years.
•	grants and purchased services:
•	the decrease of $5.663 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to rollovers ($0.173 million), reclassification of expenses to supplies and services ($1.890 million) and to other expenses ($3.958 million), partially offset by funding provided by Treasurer’s Advance ($0.358 million); and
•	the decrease of $3.919 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to cessation of prior year initiatives ($4.368 million), and Treasurer’s Advance ($0.358 million), partially offset by funding for new initiatives in 2009-10 ($0.384 million) and removal of one-off impact of rollovers ($0.346 million);
•	other expenses:  the increase of $3.958 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to reclassification of grants and purchased services to waivers.
Balance Sheet
•	cash and investment:  the increase of $0.185 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is primarily due to 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect;
•	receivables: 
•	the increase of $0.999 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to the 2007-08 audited outcome; and

•	property, plant and equipment:

•	the increase of $8.396 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is due to funding in the capital works program for the Arboretum ($5.726 million) and Public Art ($2.661 million).
•	intangible assets:  the increase of $0.653 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to the 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect.
•	capital works in progress:
•	the increase of $3.665 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to the 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect ($0.940 million), Arboretum funding ($3.326 million), partially offset by rollovers for Public Art and Watson Arts Centre Five Studios ($0.651 million); and
•	the increase of $1.798 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to funding for the Arboretum Forest Plantings ($4.240 million), Public Art ($0.720 million) and other arts capital programs ($0.550 million);
partially offset by:
•	the cessation of various arts programs ($1.932 million); and

•	payables:  the decrease of $1.592 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is primarily due to the 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect;
•	current employee benefits:  the increase of $0.278 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to the 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect;
•	reserves:  the increase of $15.335 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to the 2007-08 audited outcome flow-on effect.

Notes to the Budget Statements 
Significant variations are as follows:
Balance Sheet
•	non current assets:
•	the decrease of $0.823 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is due to the flow-on of the 2007-08 audited outcome, reflecting a revaluation of the value of investment held in the Canberra Business Development Fund (CBDF); and
•	the increase of $0.5 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is due to Government’s co-contribution to the CBDF.

Notes to the Output Class Statements
Significant variations are as follows:
Government Strategy Total Expenses
•	the increase of $1.001 million in the 2008-09 estimated outcome from the original budget is mainly due to:
•	additional funding provided by the 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriation ($0.688 million); and
•	additional funding provided by Treasurer’s Advance ($0.895 million);
partially offset by:
•	transfer of appropriations under the Financial Management Act 1996 ($0.176 million); and
•	rollovers of 2008-09 funding to 2009-10 ($0.595 million).
•	the decrease of $2.171 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to:
•	cessation of funding from 2008-09 for prior year initiatives ($4.536 million);
•	cessation of funding from the 2008-09 Budget Second Appropriations ($0.688 million);
•	cessation of funding associated with Treasurer’s Advance ($0.895 million); and
•	reduction in notional superannuation rates ($0.157 million);
partially offset by:
•	rollovers of 2008-09 funding to 2009-10 ($0.812 million);
•	funding provided for new initiatives for 2009-10 ($2.958 million); and
•	an increase in funding for ongoing initiatives from the 2008-09 Budget ($0.237 million).
Business and Industry Development Total Expenses
•	the decrease of $2.946 million in the 2009-10 Budget from the 2008-09 estimated outcome is mainly due to cessation of funding from 2008-09 for prior year initiatives ($3.875 million), partially offset by rollovers of 2008-09 funding to 2009-10 ($0.189 million) and funding provided for new initiatives for 2009-10 ($0.833 million).
