Notes

1. Appropriation Bill (No.1) 2014–15. This includes Prior Year departmental appropriation and s.74 retained revenue receipts. Includes an amount of $1.264m in 2014-15 for the Departmental Capital Budget. For accounting purposes this amount has been designated as 'contributions by owners'.

2. Appropriation Bill (No.2) 2014–15. This includes Prior Year departmental capital appropriation.

3. Appropriation receipts from other entities credited to ARC's Endowment Account (special account).

4. The remaining balance for 2014–15 differs from the unspent annual appropriations (as per Financial Statements Note 27C). This is due to the payments made in 2014–15 including payments from ARC's cash account in addition to the amounts drawn down, whereas note 27 considers only the drawdowns from the appropriations account.
