DEPARTMENT OF REGIONAL AUSTRALIA, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Section 1: Agency overview and resources
1.1 STRATEGIC DIRECTION STATEMENT
The Department of Regional Australia, Regional Development and Local Government (DRARDLG) works across the Government and in partnership with States, Territories, regional groups, Regional Development Australia Committees and Local Government to maximise economic growth, flexibility and diversity. The department is ensuring that the needs of different regions are understood and considered by Government in its policy development and service delivery functions.
The department achieves this through two outcomes:
• coordinated community infrastructure and services in rural, regional and Local Government areas through financial assistance; and
• good governance in the Australian Territories through the maintenance and improvement of the overarching legislative framework for self-governing Territories, and laws and services for non self-governing Territories.
The key roles of the department include:
• Partnering with a network of Regional Development Australia (RDA) Committees and Local Governments to ensure that policy making and advice is informed by local input and priorities, and interventions are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our regions.
• Developing specific regional policies in areas such as economic development and community-based structural adjustment in response to social, economic or environmental priorities.
• Working across all levels of government to develop and implement a place based approach to co-ordinate, integrate and leverage government initiatives and investments within regions.
• Working across all Commonwealth agencies to ensure that regional implications are embedded in broader policy considerations and program implementation.
• Developing a sound evidence base and strong analytic capacity on regional economic, social and environmental issues to inform and underpin regional policy development and program delivery, and to influence other portfolio policies and programs.
• Managing regional grants programs, to deliver community and economic infrastructure, to foster growth and to improve the economic and social outcomes in Australia’s regions and local communities.

In 2011-12, the department will continue to develop and implement a range of new initiatives in regional areas including:
• Bringing together critical regional stakeholders and developing approaches to address the impacts of key priority issues. Areas of focus may include the Murray Darling Basin Plan, climate change and carbon pricing, digital productivity and workforce participation.
• Working with all other agencies to embed regional implications in broader policy considerations and program implementation.
• Developing myregion.gov.au interactive website - a key element of engaging with regional communities and providing better access to government information on regions.
• Establishing and supporting a Regional Development Policy Centre.
• Supporting a COAG Standing Council on regional Australia.
• Strengthening the Regional Development Australia (RDA) network and building the capacity of RDA Committees.
• Managing the Australian Government’s new Regional Development Australia Fund (RDAF) and Community Infrastructure Grants (CIG).
• Funding a number of projects including: partnering with Football NSW to construct a world class football and sporting precinct at Riverstone West; upgrading the indoor sports stadium at Port Macquarie; and contributing to the restoration of the Port of Karumba seawall.
• Supporting regional cities to implement strategic and targeted marketing strategies to promote the benefits and opportunities of living and working in those cities to the broader community.
• Working with the Queensland and Victorian Governments, and other State governments where appropriate, to ensure timely recovery and reconstruction of disaster–affected infrastructure that achieves value for money.
• Progressing a referendum on constitutional recognition of Local Government.

1 The Government will provide additional funding for the Community Infrastructure Grants program, the cost of which will be met from within existing resources by redirecting $49m from the Priority Regional Infrastructure Program (now a part of the Regional Development Australia Fund).
2 $6.4m has been provided in 2010-11 to enable the Norfolk Island Government to continue to provide essential services to its population. The 2010-11 PAES included additional funding of $4.2m, which was a decision made after the 2010-11 Mid-Year Economic Fiscal Outlook but prior to the publication of the PAES. To ensure completeness of Budget documentation this measure will be published in the 2011-12 Budget Paper No.3 and has been reflected in these PB Statements. The additional $2.2m will be funded internally by the department and has no fiscal impact.
Prepared on a Government Finance Statistics (fiscal) basis.

Section 2: Outcomes and planned performance
2.1 OUTCOMES AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
Government outcomes are the intended results, impacts or consequences of actions by the Government on the Australian community. Commonwealth programs are the primary vehicle by which government agencies achieve the intended results of their outcome statements. Agencies are required to identify the programs which contribute to Government outcomes over the Budget and forward years.
Each outcome is described below, together with its related programs, specifying the performance indicators and targets used to assess and monitor the performance of the department in achieving Government outcomes.
OUTCOME 1
Outcome 1: Coordinated community infrastructure and services in rural, regional and local government areas through financial assistance.
Outcome 1 Strategy Outcome 1 is delivered through the following programs:
• Regional Development.
• Local Government.
The department will advise on, and lead, national efforts to address regional and Local Government issues by:
• Developing specific regional policies in areas such as economic development and community-based adjustment in response to social, economic or environmental priorities.
• Working across all Commonwealth agencies to ensure that regional implications are embedded in broader policy considerations and program implementation.
• Developing a sound evidence base and strong analytic capacity on regional economic, social and environmental issues to inform and underpin regional policy development and program delivery, and to influence other portfolio policies and programs.
• Developing the myregion.gov.au interactive website - a key element of engaging with regional communities.
• Supporting a COAG Standing Council on regional Australia.

OUTCOME 2
Outcome 2: Good governance in the Australian Territories through the maintenance and improvement of the overarching legislative framework for self-governing territories, and laws and services for non self-governing territories.
Outcome 2 Strategy The department administers the Territories of the Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Christmas Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, the Coral Sea Islands and Jervis Bay; and manages national interests in the Australian Capital Territory, the Northern Territory and Norfolk Island.
Through Outcome 2, the department assists these Territories to establish and maintain good governance and manage their own futures by providing services and advice on ongoing administration. The department delivers services, provides funding support and undertakes capital works with the objective of ensuring that Territory communities enjoy the same level of services as equivalent State communities.
The department will contribute to these objectives by:
• Providing policy advice and legislation to maintain effective systems of governance and the necessary legal framework for the protection and wellbeing of the community.
• Supporting the Commonwealth’s role in the Territories through the administration of inter-government agreements and various programs, maintaining Commonwealth assets and delivering State and Local Government-type services.
Following COAG’s federal financial framework reforms, the Treasury is responsible for National Partnership Payments to and through the States and Territories. The Treasury holds the appropriation for these items and reports the financial details accordingly. The non-financial performance of the corresponding programs remains the responsibility of the department. The Outcome 2 programs administered by DRARDLG under this framework are the Commonwealth’s contribution to the Centenary of Canberra.

3.2 BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3.2.1 Differences in agency resourcing and financial statements The agency resource statement (Table 1.1) provides a consolidated view of all the resources available to the agency in 2011–12. For departmental items this includes appropriation receivable that is yet to be drawn down to cover payables and provisions on the balance sheet and the Departmental Capital Budget. The income statement (Table 3.2.1) shows only the operating appropriation provided in 2011-12.
3.2.2 Analysis of budgeted financial statements Departmental
Budgeted income statement
DRARDLG is budgeting for a break-even operating result, adjusted for depreciation and amortisation expense, in 2011–12 and the forward years.
The department was established by a machinery of government change on 14 September 2010. Functions from the former Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government and the Attorney-General’s Department were transferred to the department and appropriations were amended effective 1 October 2010. The 2010-11 estimates represent nine months of operations.
Additional departmental funding has been provided to the department in 2011–12 as summarised in Table 1.2. This includes funding for the National Disaster Recovery Taskforce of $6.9 million (terminating in 2012-13) and one-off funding for specific projects such as the development of myregion.gov.au website, progressing a referendum on constitutional recognition of Local Government, establishing and supporting a Regional Development Policy Centre and promoting regional living.
Budgeted balance sheet
As a result of net cash appropriation arrangements and asset replacements being funded through capital injections, budgeted operating deficits from depreciation and amortisation expenses erode accumulated results in the forward years.
Administered
Schedule of budgeted income and expenses administered on behalf of Government
Revenue from administered activities is estimated at $24.3 million in 2011-12. This includes interest on State Government loans, mining lease royalties and municipal and facilities charges associated with the Commonwealth’s role in the Territories, all of which is returned directly to the Official Public Account.
Additional administered funding has been provided as summarised in Table 1.2. This includes funding for strengthening RDAs, extending supplementary funding for South

Australian local roads, infrastructure initiatives and a competitive grants program to promote the benefits and opportunities of living and working in regional cities.
On 27 January 2011 the Prime Minister announced the Government’s response to the challenge of rebuilding flood–affected regions across Australia. This included the reallocation of $350 million over four years (including $50 million in 2011-12) from the Priority Regional Infrastructure Program (now a part of the RDAF) as a contribution to the flood loss.
In 2011-12 it is estimated that a total of $2.0 billion of expense will be administered on behalf of government. Of this, $1.6 billion (81%) represents a special appropriation under the Local Government (Financial Assistance) Act 1995. Other grants expense relates to the RDAF, the CIG, Better Regions, RLCIP and grants to the Indian Ocean Territories (IOT). Other expenses primarily relate to services to the IOT and Jervis Bay Territory (JBT).
Schedule of budgeted assets and liabilities on behalf of the Government
As at 30 June 2012 total administered assets are estimated at $811.7 million. Financial assets comprise primarily sewerage agreements with the New South Wales and Queensland Governments pursuant to the Urban and Regional Development (Financial Assistance) Act 1974. Non-financial assets represent the Commonwealth’s interest in the IOT and JBT. Additional funding has been provided in the 2011-12 Budget to upgrade essential infrastructure on Christmas Island.
