Plain-language summary
Written by a model from the explanatory memorandum; not the record, as at 2022-03-29.
This bill would authorise the government to spend money from the Consolidated Revenue Fund on its ordinary annual services.
It would provide funding equal to about five-twelfths of the estimated annual amount for the 2022-23 financial year, with extra for agencies like the Department of Health that have high early-year spending or COVID-19 costs.
The remaining seven-twelfths plus budget measures would be covered by a separate bill later in the year.
- Proposes appropriations from the Consolidated Revenue Fund for ordinary annual services.
- Sets the amount at broadly 5/12ths of the estimated 2022-23 annual appropriations.
- Allows greater appropriations for entities with high early-year spending or COVID-19 response needs.
The government and its agencies, particularly the Department of Health.
