4 Portfolio statements
The portfolio statements are declared to be relevant documents for the purposes of section 15AB of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.
Note: See paragraph 15AB(2)(g) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 which provides that the material that may be considered in the interpretation of a provision of an Act includes any document that is declared by the Act to be a relevant document.
5 Notional transactions between entities that are part of the Commonwealth
For the purposes of this Act, notional transactions between non-corporate entities are to be treated as if they were real transactions.
Note: This section applies, for example, to a “payment” between non-corporate entities that are both part of the Commonwealth. One of the effects of this section is that the payment will be debited from an appropriation for the paying non-corporate entity, even though no payment is actually made from the Consolidated Revenue Fund. This is consistent with section 76 of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013.
Part 2—Appropriation items
6 Summary of appropriations
The total of the items specified in Schedule 1 is $10,026,740,000.
Note 1: Items in Schedule 1 can be adjusted under Part 3 of this Act.
Note 2: Sections 74 to 75 of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 also provide for the adjustment of amounts appropriated by this Act.
7 Departmental items
The amount specified in a departmental item for a non-corporate entity may be applied for the departmental expenditure of the entity.
8 Administered items
(1) The amount specified in an administered item for an outcome for a non-corporate entity may be applied for expenditure for the purpose of contributing to achieving that outcome.
(2) If the portfolio statements indicate that activities of a particular kind were intended to be treated as activities in respect of a particular outcome, then expenditure for the purpose of carrying out those activities is taken to be expenditure for the purpose of contributing to achieving the outcome.
9 Corporate entity items
(1) The amount specified in a corporate entity item for a corporate entity may be paid to the entity to be applied for the purposes of the entity.
(2) If:
(a) an Act provides that a corporate entity must be paid amounts that are appropriated by the Parliament for the purposes of the entity; and
(b) Schedule 1 contains a corporate entity item for that entity;
then the entity must be paid the full amount specified in the item.
Part 3—Advance to the Finance Minister
10 Advance to the Finance Minister
(1) This section applies if the Finance Minister is satisfied that there is an urgent need for expenditure, in the current year, that is not provided for, or is insufficiently provided for, in Schedule 1:
(a) because of an erroneous omission or understatement; or
(b) because the expenditure was unforeseen until after the last day on which it was practicable to provide for it in the Bill for this Act before that Bill was introduced into the House of Representatives.
(2) This Act has effect as if Schedule 1 were amended, in accordance with a determination of the Finance Minister, to make provision for so much (if any) of the expenditure as the Finance Minister determines.
(3) The total of the amounts determined under subsection (2) cannot be more than:
(a) $400 million for any purpose; and
(b) an additional $2,000 million for expenditure for the purposes of responding to any of the following, or circumstances related to any of the following:
(i) the coronavirus known as COVID-19;
(ii) an event that the Finance Minister is satisfied is a natural disaster;
(iii) circumstances that the Finance Minister is satisfied constitute a national emergency.
(4) A determination made under subsection (2) is a legislative instrument, but neither section 42 (disallowance) nor Part 4 of Chapter 3 (sunsetting) of the Legislation Act 2003 applies to the determination.
No further advances under Supply Act
(5) The Finance Minister must not make a determination under subsection 10(2) of the Supply Act (No. 1) 2022-2023 after this section commences.
Part 4—Miscellaneous
11 Crediting amounts to special accounts

12 Appropriation of the Consolidated Revenue Fund
The Consolidated Revenue Fund is appropriated as necessary for the purposes of this Act, including the operation of this Act as affected by the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013.
13 Repeal of this Act
