Plain English Summary
4/10 complexity
This Act authorises $80,343,711,000 to be spent from the Consolidated Revenue Fund for ordinary annual services across Commonwealth portfolios, allocating money to departments, administered programs and corporate entities. It also treats portfolio budget statements as interpretation aids, treats internal notional transfers as real for appropriation purposes, allows the Finance Minister to provide limited urgent additional funding, and permits amounts to be credited to special accounts — affecting agencies that receive or manage Commonwealth funding.
