Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This document cancels a special spending arrangement for the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

Under normal rules, government departments need Parliament's approval (appropriation) to spend money. 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.

Specifically, 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).

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.
