Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements 2022–23

The purpose of the 2022-23 Portfolio Additional Estimates Statements (PAES), like that of the Portfolio Budget Statements (PB Statements), is to inform Senators and Members of Parliament of the proposed allocation of resources to government outcomes by entities within the portfolio.

The focus of the PAES differs from the PB Statements in one important aspect. While the PAES include an entity resource statement to inform Parliament of the revised estimate of the total resources available to an entity, the focus of the PAES is on explaining the changes in resourcing by outcome(s) since the Budget.

As such, the PAES provides information on new measures and their impact on the financial and/or non-financial planned performance of programs supporting those outcomes.
