GRANTS AND SUBSIDIES

In reply to Mrs REDMOND (Heysen) (31 October 2012).

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts): I have been advised of the following:

The expense of $12.6 million represented as 'Other grants and subsidies' for 2012-13 includes two material transactions that should have been listed separately.

These two transactions reflect:

A $2.4 million intra government transfer to the Department of Further Education, Employment, Science and Technology associated with the Building Family Opportunities initiative.

A long-standing arrangement whereby WorkCover SA provides in-kind support to SafeWork SA. These services were valued at $1.4 million in 2011-12. Pursuant to the requirements of accrual accounting practice, these in-kind services are recorded as expenses, notwithstanding that no cash payment has been made.
