This document formally transfers the specified appropriation (parliamentary funding allocation) from DEWR to the AFPC.\n\n**Why it matters:** This ensures the AFPC can legally spend the money to perform its work after taking over responsibilities from DEWR. Without this direction, the AFPC would lack authority to access these funds, even though the functions have transferred to them.\n\n**Key details:**\n- **Amount:** $3,264,000\n- **From:** Department of Employment and Workplace Relations (DEWR)\n- **To:** Australian Fair Pay Commission Secretariat (AFPC)\n- **Legal basis:** Section 32 of the *Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997*, which empowers the Finance Minister (or their delegate) to reallocate appropriations when agency functions change."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/f2006l01359","history":"/api/acts/f2006l01359/history","analysis":"/api/acts/f2006l01359/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/f2006l01359/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/f2006l01359/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/f2006l01359/documents"}}
