Purpose

The Portfolio Supplementary Additional Estimates Statements (PSAES) informs Parliament of changes to the proposed allocation of resources since the Additional Estimates.

Appropriation Bill (No. 6), which follows on from Appropriation Bill (No. 2) tabled at Budget, and Appropriation Bill (No. 4) tabled at Additional Estimates, provide additional expenditure authority for:

• capital works and services
• payments to or for the states, territories and local government authorities and
• new administered outcomes not authorised by specific legislation.

Not all entities prepare a PSAES. Only those entities who the government has agreed to change funding through the Appropriation Bills listed above.

Timing

If required, the Supplementary Additional Estimates Bills (SAEs Bills), Appropriation Bill (No. 5) and Appropriation Bill (No. 6), are tabled in the Parliament usually in early May.
