1.3 - Analysis of Significant Trends#
Output Expenses
The increasing trend for Output Expenses is due to:
- additional funding for WorkSafe New Zealand from 2018/19 to enable a better intelligence-led and technology enabled approach to the prevention of work-related harm
- funding for equitable pay for care and support workers from 2017/18, and
- additional funding for ACC related appropriations due to a one off realignment of costs between appropriations in 2019/20 and changes to ACC funding settings from 2020/21.
Benefits and Related Expenses
The fluctuating trend for Benefits and Related Expenses relates to the provision of income maintenance, independence allowance, and other compensation payments for claims on the ACC Non-Earners' Account and the ACC Treatment Injury Account.
Other Expenses
The decrease in Other Expenses from 2020/21 into out-years is due to funding for He Poutama Rangatahi being discontinued.
Capital Expenditure
The fluctuating trend for Capital Expenditure is due to capital investment provided to WorkSafe New Zealand in 2015/16, 2017/18 and 2019/20 for ICT business capability.
Multi-Category Expenses and Capital Expenditure
The increasing trend for the Multi-Category Output Expenses is due to:
- increased funding for change programmes (including Vision 2015) from 2015/16 onwards
- increased costs to manage increased visa processing volumes from 2015/16 onwards
- changes to the New Zealand Settlement Strategy, with emphasis on the national network of migrant resource services and the Refugee and Migrant Service, and
- additional funding for the Integrity and Security of the New Zealand Immigration System to address non-compliance in the Immigration system and prevent maritime mass arrivals from 2019/20.
Non-Tax Revenue
The increasing trend of Non-Tax Revenue is due to:
- the enactment of the Immigration Amendment Act 2015 in 2015/16, introducing a new Immigration Levy which replaced the Migrant Levy, and
- a one off increase in 2018/19 only for the Health and Safety in Employment (HSE) Levy due to a change in revenue recognition policy.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The decrease in this appropriation for 2020/21 is mainly due to:
- one off funding at Budget 2019 for 2019/20 to fund tools and resources supporting the implementation of the new pay equity regime
- a funding increase for the 2019/20 year due to delays in projects and programmes from the previous financial year, and
- a decrease of funding for the pay equity dispute resolution and Holidays Act compliance between 2019/20 and 2020/21 based on the original phasing of the initiative, however, due to delays in implementing new legislation we expect this will be rephrased in 2020/21 and out-years.

How Performance will be Assessed and End of Year Reporting Requirements
An exemption was granted under s15D(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Finance Act 1989, as additional performance information is unlikely to be informative because this appropriation is solely for income maintenance, independence allowance, and other compensation payments for claims on the Treatment Injury Account.
Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The increase in this appropriation for 2020/21 is mainly due to a one off realignment of costs between appropriations in 2019/20 and changes to ACC funding settings in 2020/21.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The increase in this appropriation for 2020/21 is mainly due to:
- funding to support security upgrades to the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre following a security assessment highlighting its increased level of risk
- funding to increase visa processing capacity for refugee and protected purpose claims in response to a forecast increase in claims
- funding to increase the cap on the Refugee Family Support Category; increase the settlement support provided to sponsored family members; and conduct an evaluation of settlement outcomes for the sponsored family members of former refugees
- funding to ensure compliance with Chinese tax law for employees based in Beijing, and
- additional funding transferred into the 2019/20 year from the 2018/19 year as a result of delays in projects and programmes from 2018/19.
