Total Vote: All Appropriations
Figure 1-Vote trends in actual expenses and capital expenditure by appropriation type
Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade
The movements in the departmental and non-departmental appropriations in Vote Official Development Assistance (ODA), detailed in the Summary of Financial Activity table above, are largely driven by non-departmental expenditure for the delivery of New Zealand's International Development Cooperation.
Total expenditure in the Vote will increase from $568.157 million in 2014/15 to $822.172 million in 2019/20, an increase of $254.015 million. Of this, $226.799 million relates to an increase in non-departmental expenditure, while the departmental output expense increase is $27.216 million.
Details of the significant movements within each appropriation type are described below:
Departmental Output Expenses
From the 2015/16 financial year there are progressive annual increases in departmental output expenses reflecting additional funding, expected to increase from actual expenditure of $58.079 million in 2015/16 to $93.675 million in 2022/23. These increases are driven primarily by the following three factors:
- funding increases from the new initiatives package approved in Budget 2015 for the New Zealand Aid Programme Strategic Investment policy initiative, being $4.961 million in 2015/16, $7.172 million in 2016/17 and $8.087 million per annum in 2017/18 and each of the outyears
- funding increases from the new initiatives package approved in Budget 2018 for the management of the International Development Cooperation programme associated with the new funding for "Increasing our aid to tackle the biggest global and regional challenges of our time" totalling $11.930 million in 2018/19, $15.566 million in 2019/20, $19.248 million in 2020/21 and $22.892 million per annum in 2021/22 and each of the outyears, and
- funding increases from the new initiatives package approved in Budget 2019 for the management of the International Development Cooperation programme associated with the new funding for "Increasing New Zealand's Investment to Deliver on the Pacific Reset and to Demonstrate Global Leadership" totalling $1.098 million in 2019/20, $2.090 million in 2020/21, $2.590 million in 2021/22 and $6.756 million in 2022/23 and each of the outyears.
Non-Departmental Other Expenses
This is the second year of the multi-year appropriation (International Development Cooperation) approved for the three-year period 2018/19 to 2020/21 and totalling $2,186.718 million.
The appropriation will increase to $2,220.535 million, including a total of $29.502 million in new funding from the new initiatives package for "Increasing New Zealand's Investment to Deliver on the Pacific Reset and to Demonstrate Global Leadership" approved in Budget 2019, together with $4.315 million of unexpended 2017/18 year-end balances from previous expiring multi-year appropriations. The additional funding approved in Budget 2019 is projected to increase New Zealand's Official Development Assistance as a percentage of Gross National Income to 0.28%.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The appropriation increased by $9.118 million to $82.357 million for 2019/20, due to:
- an increase of $3.636 million from the new initiatives package approved in Budget 2018 for the management of the International Development Cooperation programme associated with the new initiative funding for "Increasing our aid to tackle the biggest global and regional challenges of our time"
- an increase of $2.400 million resulting from the retention of an underspend from the 2018/19 financial year to enable the establishment of the Pacific Enabling Fund, which will support New Zealand's engagement with Pacific partners on a diverse range of activities that sit outside the formal aid funding arrangements
- an increase of $1.297 million resulting from lower Budget 2019 initiative Reprioritisation of Funding - Forecast Departmental Underspends in 2019/20 compared to 2018/19
- an increase of $1.098 million from the new initiatives package approved in Budget 2019 for the management of the International Development Cooperation programme associated with the new initiative funding for "Increasing New Zealand's Investment to Deliver on the Pacific Reset and to Demonstrate Global Leadership"
- an increase of $506,000 resulting from the retention of an underspend from the 2018/19 financial year to meet the operating costs of the investigation and design phases of capital projects to be advanced in the 2019/20 financial year, and
- an increase of $301,000 resulting from foreign currency exchange rate and overseas inflation movements.
The increases are partially offset by:
- a one-off expense transfer of $120,000 from 2017/18 to progress the removal of asbestos from Ministry buildings at overseas posts, particularly in the Pacific, in the 2018/19 financial year.

Components of the Appropriation
The components of this appropriation include the design, management, implementation and evaluation of activities intended to achieve sustainable development objectives. This can include capacity building initiatives, coordination support to partners, research on development issues and development education and awareness in New Zealand. Activities approved under the appropriation will reflect the Official Development Assistance (ODA) definition and reporting directives of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development along with the provision of assistance to Pacific Island countries irrespective of their eligibility for ODA. There may also be a small amount of expenditure that does not meet either criteria. This may be due to definitional changes after a contract is signed or for other usually administrative reasons.
The appropriation is delivered through four Ministry managed allocations (Pacific development cooperation, humanitarian assistance, multilateral agency funding, and global development cooperation), which are agreed with the Minister of Foreign Affairs. These allocations reflect the intent to help address global and regional development challenges and to invest in results for our partner governments. They also enable delivery of development cooperation and humanitarian assistance through bilateral, regional, multilateral and partnership channels.
What is Intended to be Achieved with this Appropriation
This appropriation is intended to achieve progress by Pacific Island and developing countries against their sustainable development priorities and against the 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goals.
