(Estimates Committee A) The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Finance Minister for State Development Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Corporate Overhead Costs The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy): The following information is provided on behalf of all ministers. The Department of Treasury and Finance advises that the preparation of program and sub-program information for the budget papers is an extensive process where each agency allocates its budget (including corporate overhead costs) over the various programs of the agency. The allocation process is undertaken at the agency level in a manner that best reflects the nature of the business operations of the agency. Whilst all agencies maintain a rolling 5 years of forward estimates, the estimates (including corporate overhead costs) are not allocated across programs beyond the current budget year. As a result, a breakdown of agency budgets in an Agency Statement format over each year of the forward estimates does not exist. Information would only exist for the 2016-17 budget year as well as the 2015-16 budget and estimated result and 2014-15 actual as published in agency statements.
