Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This determination is a piece of administrative housekeeping that closes a government bank account called the Removals Australia Account.

What it does:

Abolishes a "Special Account" (a dedicated government ledger account used for specific purposes) that was established in 1997
The account formed part of the Commercial Activities Fund, and likely managed money for public service relocation expenses (removalist costs when staff move for work)

Who it affects:

Primarily the Department of Finance and Administration (now Finance)
Any agencies that still had transactions flowing through this account

Why it matters:

Tidies up the Commonwealth's books by shutting down an obsolete account
Removes an administrative structure that was no longer needed after nearly four years of operation

This is a straightforward, single-purpose instrument with no tricks or hidden provisions.
