the local government; or
anyone else; and
the estimated expenses, including all items taken into account under the pricing provisions (other than return on capital); and
the estimated surplus or deficit for the financial year; and
if community service obligations are to be carried out during the business activity—
a description of the nature of the community service obligations; and
the estimated cost of performing the community service obligations, less the estimated revenue for the community service obligations.
An estimated activity statement may contain a summary of the information mentioned in subsection (2) , instead of a full statement of the information, if—
the estimated activity statement states it is a summary only and that a full statement of the information may be—
inspected or purchased at the local government’s public office; and
inspected on the local government’s website; and
a full statement of the information can be—
inspected or purchased at the local government’s public office; and

The price for purchasing a full statement of the information must be no more than the reasonable cost to the local government of making the statement available for purchase.
