ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES DEPARTMENTAL BUDGET
In reply to Mr MARSHALL (Norwood—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (26 June 2012).
The Hon. P. CAICA (Colton—Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation): I am advised:
1. Following the 2011-12 Budget, the Department of Treasury and Finance (DTF) undertook a review of the 2011-12 Agency Statement. As a result of this review, DTF determined that the previous Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) 'Corporate Services' subprogram needed to be allocated across the remaining subprograms in the 2012-13 Agency Statements.
To achieve this outcome, DENR pro-rated corporate costs based on the number of FTEs within the remaining subprograms.
2. As outlined above, DENR has pro-rated corporate costs based on the number of FTEs within the remaining subprograms.
3. The breakdown of level of overhead by program, in terms of both expenditure in dollar terms and FTEs.
