5 Notional transactions between entities that are part of the Commonwealth

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

(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:

Note: This means that, after the commencement of this Act, the Finance Minister has access to $295 million under section 10 of the Appropriation Act (No. 1) 2015‑2016, regardless of amounts that have already been determined under that section.
(2) If:

(b) before the commencement of this Act, the Finance Minister determined an amount (the advanced amount) under section 10 of the Appropriation Act (No. 1) 2015‑2016 for the expenditure;
