Portfolio Overview

There have been no changes to the structure of the Portfolio since the 2005-06 Budget.

ADDITIONAL ESTIMATES AND VARIATIONS - PORTFOLIO LEVEL

Overall, the Portfolio is seeking a total increase of $35.327m in government appropriations consisting of a $29.651m increase through Appropriation Bill (No. 3) 2005–06 and $5.676m increase through Appropriation Bill (No. 4) 2005–06.

Of the total increase in appropriations, the Department of the Environment and Heritage (DEH) is seeking $29.651m through Appropriation Bill (No. 3) 2005–06. The increase relates primarily to additional appropriations DEH (Outcome 1 – Environment) is receiving for the Tasmanian Community Forest Agreement and the Great Barrier Reef Structural Adjustment Package.

The remaining Portfolio’s additional estimates represent a net increase of $5.676m for DEH through Appropriation Bill (No. 4) 2005–06 mainly for administered movement of funds for the Renewable Remote Power Generation Programme, Low Head Precinct (grant programme) and the re-classification of appropriation for the Photovoltaic Rebate Programme and the Strengthening Tasmania Tamar River Pylons Programme.
