House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Answers to Questions Courts Administration Authority Courts Administration Authority In reply to Mr PICTON House of Assembly Kaurna Courts Administration Authority In reply to Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (2 August 2021). (Estimates Committee A) The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Premier Attorney-General Minister for Planning and Local Government Courts Administration Authority The Hon. V.A. CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning and Local Government): I have been advised: The Agency statements outline a total 76.4 FTE reduction in Budget Operating FTE between the 2021-22 budget and 2020-21 estimated result (revised budget). These FTE figures represent budget cap and do not necessarily reflect the actual FTE and positions in the agency. This variation predominantly relates to two factors: 36.3 FTE—a nominal FTE decrease has been applied against a savings target (CAA efficiency measures) imposed on the CAA for 2021-22. This savings target is nominally applied against salaries and FTE, however, savings may be met via other means. 40.0 FTE—reduction in short-term contract staff on the ECMS project. The ECMS project was originally scheduled to go-live prior to 30 June 2021. The 40 FTE budget reduction represents short-term contracted staff working on the project. The project go-live date has been extended to February 2021.
