What are the nature and details of the budget line 'Other income' and why was there a shortfall in the budgeted amount ($662,000) in 2011-12? The Hon. G. PORTOLESI House of Assembly Hartley Minister for Education and Child Development EDUCATION AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT BUDGET The Hon. G. PORTOLESI (Hartley—Minister for Education and Child Development): I am advised: The budget line 'Sales of goods and services' includes various revenue items such as salary recoveries for out-posted staff and recovery of unspent non-government organisation grant funds. The variation of $2.144 million between the 2010-11 Actual Outcome and the 2011-12 Budget mainly reflects higher than budgeted non-government organisation grant recoveries of $1.925 million and higher salary recoveries for out-posted staff of $0.219 million. The budget line 'Other income' includes Adoption Fees and other sundry revenue items. The variation between the 2011-12 Budget and the 2011-12 Estimated Result largely reflects lower than expected Adoption Fees resulting from a minor decline in overseas adoptions.
