4     2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates

Key Issues

·       The Net Operating Balance is estimated to be a deficit of $1 118.0 million for 2020‑21, with a projected improvement over the Forward Estimates period to achieve an estimated surplus of $17.2 million in 2023‑24.

·       The Fiscal Balance remains in deficit over the 2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates period, with an estimated deficit of $1 779.7 million in 2020‑21 improving to an estimated deficit of $437.9 million in 2023‑24.

·       Net Debt (including the impact of Leases under AASB 16) is estimated to be $1 854.8 million as at 30 June 2021 increasing to $4 380.5 million as at 30 June 2024.

·       The 2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates for key fiscal measures have been significantly affected by the COVID‑19 pandemic and the response and recovery measures that are being implemented, or are planned to be implemented, by the Government.

·       As a consequence of the timing of the 2020‑21 Budget, where applicable, actual outcomes for 2019‑20 have been included rather that Estimated Outcomes as has been provided in previous years. Information on variations between 2019‑20 Budget estimates and actual outcomes for 2019‑20 is provided in the Treasurer’s Annual Financial Report 2019‑20 that was recently released.

·       This chapter includes the Policy and Parameter Statement, which provides a reconciliation of the major movements in the Net Operating Balance and the Fiscal Balance between the Budget and Forward Estimates presented in the 2019‑20 Budget Papers and those presented in these Budget Papers. Detailed information on 2020‑21 Budget initiatives can be found in Government Services Budget Paper No 2.

 


 

Overview

This chapter includes the General Government Sector Financial Statements for the 2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates period and the actual end of year results for 2019‑20. It also incorporates the Policy and Parameter Statement, which reflects changes between the Budget and Forward Estimates reported in the 2019‑20 Budget Papers and the 2020‑21 Budget Papers.

In addition, this chapter includes the Public Account Budget and Forward Estimates together with Specific Purpose Account Estimated Receipts and Expenditure for 2020‑21. These reports are prepared to meet the requirements under the Financial Management Act 2016.

The financial statements in this chapter have been prepared in accordance with the Uniform Presentation Framework (UPF). The statements present information for the 2019‑20 Budget and for the 2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates. Taxation information, required under the UPF, is provided in chapter 5 of this Budget Paper.

In accordance with the UPF, the final end of year results for the General Government Sector for 2020‑21 will be presented in the Treasurer’s Annual Financial Report 2020‑21, which is required to be released by no later than 31 October 2021. Updated 2020‑21 Budget and Forward Estimates will be presented in the 2020‑21 Revised Estimates Report that is required to be released by 15 February 2021.

Notes:

1.    Detailed information on revenue estimates is provided in chapter 5 of this Budget Paper.

2.    The increase in Employee expenses primarily reflects the implementation of the Government’s 2020‑21 Budget initiatives, the continuation of the Government’s initiatives from the 2018 election and revised expenditure estimates of Australian Government funding.

3.    The change in Superannuation reflects an actuarial assessment of the defined benefit schemes and agency expenditure estimates for accumulation scheme members. Further information on the Superannuation liability is provided in chapter 7 of this Budget Paper.

4.    The increase in Supplies and consumables in 2020‑21 primarily reflects once off COVID‑19 pandemic related expenditure and expenditure by the Tasmanian Health Service for pharmaceutical supplies.

5.    The increase in Borrowing costs from 2020‑21 primarily reflects anticipated increases in the estimated General Government Sector cash deficit.

6.    The increase in Grant and subsidy expenses in 2020‑21 primarily reflects the implementation of the Government’s 2020‑21 Budget initiatives, the continuation of the Government’s 2018 election commitments and unexpended 2019‑20 funding reallocated to 2020‑21.

7.    The increase in Other expenses in 2020‑21 primarily reflects the Government’s decision to remove agency efficiency dividends from 2020‑21 in response to the COVID‑19 pandemic.

8.    Revaluation of equity investment in PNFC and PFC sectors reflects changes in the net assets of the Public Non‑Financial Corporations and Public Financial Corporation sectors. Refer to appendix 1 of this Budget Paper for more information on the PNFC and PFC sectors.

9.    Detailed information on Infrastructure Investment is provided in chapter 6 of this Budget Paper.

Notes:

1.    The decrease in Cash and deposits in 2021 and over the Forward Estimates period primarily reflects the variation in the balance of cash held in agency Specific Purpose Accounts.

2.    Variations from 2020‑21 primarily reflect loan advances by the Department of State Growth together with funds invested with the Tasmanian Public Finance Corporation for the TT‑Line Vessel Replacement Fund.

3.    The increase in Equity investments in PNFC and PFC sectors in 2020‑21 is primarily the result of an increase in net assets held by electricity entities. This increase is partly offset by a decrease due to the Mersey Community Hospital Dividend of $86.6 million to be paid by the PFC Sector in 2020‑21.

4.    The increase in Land and buildings reflects the Government’s infrastructure investment program including increased capital funding for schools, housing, prison infrastructure and hospital redevelopment projects. Further information on Infrastructure Investment is provided in chapter 6 of this Budget paper.

5.    The increase in Infrastructure reflects the implementation of the Government’s infrastructure program. Further information on Infrastructure Investment is provided in chapter 6 of this Budget Paper.

6.    The estimated borrowings of $3 billion as at 30 June 2021 includes borrowings undertaken to finance the estimated General Government Sector cash deficit and to ensure Specific Purpose Accounts and Agency Trust Accounts are cash backed.

7.    Increase in Superannuation as at 30 June 2021 primarily reflects a decrease in the discount rate used in the latest actuarial assessment of the liability related to the defined benefit schemes. Further information on the Superannuation liability is provided in chapter 7 of this Budget Paper.

8.    Net Worth represents Total Assets less Total Liabilities.

9.    Net Financial Worth represents Financial assets less Total Liabilities.

10.  Net Financial Liabilities represents Total Liabilities less Financial assets, excluding Equity investment in PNFC and PFC sectors.

11.  Net Debt represents Borrowings plus Lease liabilities, less the sum of Cash and deposits and Investments. This measure incorporates the impact of recognising Lease liabilities on the Balance Sheet.

12.  GFS Net Debt represents Borrowings less the sum of Cash and deposits and Investments. This is equivalent to Net Debt based on the Australian Bureau of Statistics Government Finance Statistics reporting framework, and excludes the impact of Lease liabilities.

Policy and Parameter Statement

Introduction

The Policy and Parameter Statement is a reconciliation of the major changes in the Net Operating Balance and the Fiscal Balance between two points in time.

The changes in the PPS are classified as revenue, expense or net acquisition of non‑financial assets and then further categorised as a policy or parameter change. The classification of a variation as a policy or parameter change is a matter of judgement and it is recognised that there may be some instances where part of a Government initiative may have both policy and parameter components. In exercising judgement, Treasury aims to ensure that Government decisions are made transparent.

Policy Variation

For the purpose of the PPS, a policy variation reflects a specific decision by the Government that has an impact on the Budget and Forward Estimates and is related to a new policy or represents a change in the Government’s existing policy position since the previous Budget. A decision to change a Budget or Forward Estimate item, which is consistent with an existing policy, is not a policy decision.

Parameter Variation

A parameter variation reflects changes to the Budget and Forward Estimates due to the economic environment, the agency operating environment or the timing of a transaction.

Parameter variations will reflect the impact of changes in taxes, grants or other income that do not arise because of a Government decision and demand and cost variations in agency service delivery, including the provision of indexation. Variations resulting from the rollover of a new Forward Estimate year and changes in accounting policies, such as a change in an agency depreciation policy or the impact on estimates of a change in an Australian Accounting Standard are classified as parameter variations.

Table 4.4 provides a summary of the policy and parameter changes detailed in Table 4.5 that have impacted on the formulation of the 2020‑21 Budget since the 2019‑20 Budget.

2020‑21 Budget Presentation Issues

In response to the COVID‑19 pandemic the Government has announced a wide range of important policy decisions that are reflected in the Budget estimates presented in the 2020‑21 Budget Papers. While action has been taken to seek to capture these decisions as policy decisions, it is possible that some changes to revenue or expenditure resulting from these decisions may not be fully captured from a policy perspective and may instead be reflected in parameter changes. Information on the presentation of COVID‑19 measures in the Budget Papers is provided in chapter 1 of Government Services Budget Paper 2.

As a result of the timing of the 2020‑21 Budget, actual outcomes for 2019‑20 have recently been published in the Treasurer’s Annual Financial Report 2019‑20. Information on variations between budgeted and actuals information is provided in that Report and is not therefore provided in the following Policy and Parameter Statement.
