These expenses are fully offset through the corresponding Crown revenue received.
Capital expenditure
Land Tenure Reform Acquisitions was structured as an MYA that expires in 2018/19. The Final Budgeted figure represents the remaining authority for the MYA while the estimated actual shows the actual expected spend for the 2018/19 year. This then reverts to an annual appropriation stabilising the overall trend. The capital expenses are expected to be offset by the corresponding capital receipts received.
As well as this, on 23 October 2018, Cabinet gave Land Information New Zealand approval to progressively rebuild Landonline, the system used to manage New Zealand's title and survey transactions. This will provide a reliable, accessible and secure platform. It will also improve LINZ's ability to respond to customer needs and continue to meet its regulatory requirements.
Multi-Category Expenses and Capital Expenditure (MCA)
Due to the completion of significant work programmes for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery, MCA expenses have recently reduced and are forecast to reduce as other programmes of work come to an end.
MCA output expenses however have steadily grown and are forecast to remain stable in the outyears reflecting the increased activity in the Crown Land and Location Based Information MCAs.

End of Year Performance Reporting

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The decrease in this appropriation for 2019/20 is due to:
- a decrease of $36.273 million for Purchase of land and improvements operational
- a decrease of $25.101 million for Initial write-down in the value of land and improvements
- a decrease of $7.033 million for Loss on disposal of land and improvements, and
- a decrease of $4.787 million for Managing the recovery, Mass movement of land and Write-down in the value of land and improvements
due to the completion of a significant work programme in 2018/19.
This decrease is partially offset by:
- an increase of $11.624 million for Management and clearance of land due to the timing of work which is dependent on future use decisions in the Residential Red Zone, and
- an increase of $2.631 million for Clearance of built structures and associated works and Purchase of land and improvements capital due to timing of remaining work programme.
