The accompanying accounting policies and notes form part of these financial schedules.

For full understanding of the Crown's financial position and the results of its operations for the period, reference should be made to the Financial Statements of the Government of New Zealand for the year ended 30 June 2008.

KiwiSaver (kick-start payment, interest, fee subsidy, member tax credit) - The higher than forecast up-take in KiwiSaver enrolments since the Supplementary Estimates, combined with variances associated with new accrual-based forecast models, resulted in KiwiSaver appropriations being exceeded.

Payroll subsidy - This payroll subsidy appropriation has been exceeded due to expenditure of $0.264 million relating to the 2006-07 financial year, that was identified after the Supplementary Estimates.

Impairment of debt relating to general tax and family support - Impairment of debt relating to general tax and family support (Working for Families Tax Credits) exceeded appropriation due to a higher than forecast increase in the underlying level of overdue debt. Most new debt comes onto the debt book in the last three months of the financial year (ie, at the April 7 tax agent due date), and this level of growth was not expected at the time the Supplementary Estimates were prepared. Whilst the level of overdue debt has increased by 20% in 2007-08, the actual level of cash collected against this debt also increased at the same rate.

Impairment of debt relating to child support - Impairment of debt relating to child support penalties exceeded appropriation due to higher than forecast increase in the underlying level of overdue debt. These penalties grow year-on-year due to limited write-off provisions under the Child Support Act.This level of growth was not expected at the time the Supplementary Estimates were prepared. 

During the year there were two additional breaches of appropriation which were subsequently authorised through the 2007-08 Supplementary Estimates. There were no initial appropriations in the 2007-08 Main Estimates for these. These were as follows:

  • Retirement Commissioner
$380,000
  • General tax and family support bad debt write-offs
$123,897,000

Retirement Commissioner - This appropriation was unappropriated up until February 2008.Funding for the Retirement Commission was originally authorised in 2006-07, however, the expenditure did not occur until the beginning of 2007-08. Cabinet approval was obtained in February 2008 to authorise this expenditure in 2007-08 (SDC Min (08) 1/5).This approval was incorporated into the 2007-08 Supplementary Estimates.

General tax and family support bad debt write-offs - The appropriation for general tax and family support bad debt write-offs was unappropriated up until 30 September 2007. This was due to a change in accounting policy, agreed with The Treasury and Audit New Zealand, that reclassified these write-offs as an expense requiring appropriation. Approval was obtained from the Minister of Finance, in November 2007 for an appropriation of $713 million to authorise this technical adjustment for 2007-08 and future years. This approval was incorporated into the 2007-08 Supplementary Estimates.
