A **net appropriation agreement** is a special deal that lets a department spend money it collects from fees or other sources without coming back to Parliament for permission each time.\n\nSpecifically, this cancellation ends such an agreement for DFAT's **Outcome 3 administered expenses** (these are costs the department manages on behalf of the government, rather than its own running costs).\n\n**What this means:** From 1 July 2006, DFAT could no longer use this streamlined spending authority for those particular expenses and would need to follow the standard budget approval process instead."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an","history":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an/history","analysis":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-net-appropriation-agreement-department-of-foreign-affairs-an/documents"}}
