  • Senate Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Committee: Budget Estimates
    Department of Defence responses to Questions on Notice Senate Estimates 31 May and 1 June 2006 Portfolio overview and major corporate issues Question 4 Senator Bishop Hansard 31 May, p. 44 Budget Papers Please provide an explanation of Table 20 in Budget Paper No.1. RESPONSE Table 20 in Budget Paper No.1 presents an estimate of net capital investment by function, on a Government Finance Statistics basis. The Government Finance Statistics reporting framework is a specialised accounting and financial reporting system designed to support economic analysis of the public sector and is consistent with international statistical standards. The net capital investment by function measures the change in the Australian Government's stock of non-financial assets, by function, due to transactions. As such, it measures the net effect of purchases, sales and consumption (for example, depreciation of fixed assets and use of inventory) of non-financial assets during an accounting period. Under the Government Finance Statistics framework, specialist military equipment is expensed on purchase and therefore not considered an asset for reporting purposes. Table 20 in Budget Paper No.1 therefore does not include any transactions relating to specialist military equipment, which represents the bulk of Defence’s major assets. The Defence figures in Table 20 are based on the Defence function, and therefore include the Department of Defence and the Defence Materiel Organisation. Using the 2006-07 budget year as an example, the table below shows the make up of the
