These assignments were across 100 different languages. ITC also completed 1,892 document translations. As a fee-for-service entity operating under competitive neutrality principles, the Interpreting and Translating Centre is not reliant on the provision of budget funding. Revenue from fees and charges generated by the centre is used to offset the expenditure the centre incurs in earning this revenue. In 2015-16, the budgeted revenue from fees and charges is $3.55m and total expenditure is budgeted at $3.41m.
