Notes:
1. The increase in Support for the Governor in 2021‑22 primarily reflects the rollover of unexpended appropriation from 2020‑21 for the conservation and double glazing of Government House ballroom windows.
2. The decrease in Public Building Maintenance Program reflects the completion of works on a fire detection system and heating upgrade at Government House during 2020‑21.
This Output facilitates the efficient and effective interaction between the Office of the Governor, the Parliament, the Executive, the Tasmanian State Service, the Tasmanian community and Offices of the Governor in other states. This Output also facilitates cooperation between all arms of government and the community to promote the State of Tasmania to a widening range of international guests and other visitors to the State.
The Office will successfully perform this Output by:
· meeting the expectations of the Governor in assisting her to meet her constitutional, legal and ceremonial responsibilities;
· meeting the expectations of the Governor and her spouse in the organisation of their official program and the administration of the household; and
· maintaining the Government House Estate to a high standard.
