APPROPRIATION MINISTER(S): Minister of Transport (M72)
APPROPRIATION ADMINISTRATOR: Ministry of Transport
RESPONSIBLE MINISTER FOR MINISTRY OF TRANSPORT: Minister of Transport
Overview of the Vote#
Vote Transport encompasses the funding of land, air and water transport infrastructure investments, services, and regulatory activities. The appropriations under the Vote support the purpose of the transport system, which is to improve people's wellbeing, and the liveability of places. It does this by contributing to 5 key outcomes: inclusive access, healthy and safe people, environmental sustainability, resilience and security, and economic prosperity.
The major entities involved in the Vote are the Ministry of Transport; the transport Crown entities New Zealand Transport Agency, Civil Aviation Authority (incorporating the Aviation Security Service), Maritime New Zealand, and Transport Accident Investigation Commission; State owned enterprise KiwiRail Holdings Limited; and City Rail Link Limited, a schedule 4A company under the Public Finance Act.
National Land Transport Programme
In 2019/20, the largest element of the Vote is the funding of the National Land Transport Programme (NLTP) ($3,743 million or 65% of the Vote). The NLTP is funded out of the national land transport fund, which is made up of the net inflows of land transport and certain other revenue (eg tolls) and associated borrowing. The NLTP compromises a number of operating activities classes:
- Local road maintenance $666 million
- State highway improvements $549 million
- Public transport $510 million
- State highway maintenance $400 million
- Local road improvements $272 million
- Transitional rail $157 million
- Investment management $71 million
- Road safety promotion $54 million
- Walking and cycling $55 million
- Regional improvements $49 million.
There is also capital expenditure on State highways ($780 million) and rapid transit ($180 million).
A $500 million loan facility for cash flow management (9% of the Vote) is in place. This appropriation does not take account of any repayments made and the facility may not exceed $250 million at any one time.
Rail
In addition to rail funding through the NLTP, in 2019/20 additional Crown funding for Rail makes up 21% of the Vote - $1,225 million, mainly:
- $473 million equity investment in KiwiRail Holdings Limited to finance capital expenditure on the national freight network
- $468 million for the Crown's 50% share of investment in the Auckland City Rail Link, matched by Auckland Council
- $174 million to roll over an existing loan from the Crown to KiwiRail. An appropriation is required for this transaction
- $44 million for metro rail projects in Wellington
- $34 million to finance approved rail-related projects that contribute to the outcome of a lift in the productivity potential of the regions from the Provincial Growth Fund
- $15 million from property transactions by New Zealand Railways Corporation, reinvested in KiwiRail Holdings Limited
- $13 million to maintain the operation of the existing electric locomotive fleet, and
- $4 million for public policy projects and rail safety.
Road
In addition to the funding for roading through the NLTP, additional Crown and loan funding is provided for specific roading projects. In 2019/20 this equates to 2% of the Vote ($129 million).
- $42 million in loans from the Housing Infrastructure Fund
- $29 million for reinstatement of State Highway 1 between Picton and Christchurch
- $46 million for Regional State Highways
- $8 million for Provincial Growth Fund infrastructure projects
- $3 million for urban cycleways, and
- $1 million for Provincial Growth Fund regional projects and capability.
Crown Entity and Other Funding
The balance of the Vote ($195 million) is mainly split between:
- $49 million for services provided by and capital expenditure incurred by the Ministry of Transport
- $41 million for aviation security service loans
- $46 million for Crown entities for outputs. The transport Crown entities receive most of their funding from third party levies, fees and charges. Crown funding is split between the Crown entities as follows:
- Maritime New Zealand $24 million
- New Zealand Transport Agency $12 million
- Transport Accident Investigation Authority $6 million
- Civil Aviation Authority (including Aviation Security Service) $4 million
- $30 million for SuperGold Card public transport concessions
- $25 million for weather forecasting services from the Meteorological Service of New Zealand, and
- $4 million to other third parties.
In accordance with the transport funding principles, transport regulator functions are funded through a mix of targeted taxes, levies, and fees, with a relatively small share of Crown funding. The principles use the concepts of club, private and public goods to guide the allocation of costs of providing policy and regulatory functions in the transport regulatory system. There is an ongoing programme of regulator fee and funding reviews to assess the appropriate regulatory costs and funding streams. Further, some Vote funding for CAA and Maritime NZ is provided from the Working Safer levy collected under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.
Details of these appropriations are set out in Parts 2-4.

1.3 - Analysis of Significant Trends#
Analysis of Significant Trends
Significant trends in Vote Transport are discussed briefly below. In all of the tables, the 2014/15 to 2017/18 figures are actual and the other years are forecasts.
Tax Revenue
Land transport revenue is hypothecated by legislation to the National Land Transport Fund, the majority of which pays for the National Land Transport Programme (NLTP). In 2019/20, the Crown is forecast to collect $4,110 million of land transport revenue.
There are three types of land transport revenue:
- fuel excise duty paid on petroleum-based fuels by the importer
- road user charges paid by owners of diesel and, in future, other non-petroleum based vehicles, and
- motor vehicle registration fees paid by owners of most vehicles.
The first is collected by the New Zealand Customs Service and the others by the New Zealand Transport Agency.
The majority of the revenue is spent within Vote Transport with some in Vote Police for Road Policing activities ($352 million in 2019/20). Land transport revenue is forecast at least twice a year and the funding to the NLTP is adjusted upwards or downwards in line with revenue.
Regional Fuel Tax is not revenue for the Crown and is therefore not included within Vote Transport.

Over the years shown above, road user charges and fuel excise duty rates were increased in 2014, 2015 and 2018. There has been an increase in fuel excise duty of 3.5 cents per litre effective 30 September 2018 with equivalent increases in road user charges rates effective from 1 October 2018. Further increases are intended to take effect on 1 July 2019 and 1 July 2020. This is reflected in the table above.
The land transport tax revenue is hypothecated to the National Land Transport Fund and therefore can be approved pursuant to a permanent legislative authority. For transparency, the expenditure proposed is shown in the Estimates although no annual appropriation is required. This disclosure provides a transparent view of the Government's books as the land transport tax revenue is matched by equal expenditure. If the expenditure was not shown, the revenue would create an apparent surplus.

The figures shown by type of appropriation in the Summary of Financial Activity table (section 1.2) have been reanalysed by purpose, to allow for a more meaningful and straightforward explanation of the trends.
The funding by each purpose is explained in more detail below.
Government Policy Statement and the National Land Transport Programme (NLTP)
The Government Policy Statement on land transport (GPS) sets out the Government's priorities for land transport investment for 10 years. The GPS is a statutory document required by the Land Transport Management Act 2003. It also sets ranges of expenditure on defined activities.
The GPS is central to transport planning processes. Local authorities develop their regional land transport plans (RLTPs) using the signals provided in the GPS. The New Zealand Transport Agency selects projects from within the RLTPs to develop the three-year National Land Transport Programme, which gives effect to the GPS.
The GPS that is currently in force is the GPS 2018. The GPS 2018 came into force on 1 July 2018.
The current NLTP was adopted on 1 September 2018 and is effective for the years 2018/19 to 2020/21.
There are two permanent legislative authority appropriations (PLAs) for the NLTP - one operating and one capital in nature. The other sections of this document provide more detail on expenditure by the different activity classes.
In addition to the permanent legislative authority funding, there are some annual appropriations for specific purposes.

Permanent Legislative Authority Funding
The New Zealand Transport Agency balances the funding available between the operating and capital appropriations to deliver the NLTP. The Agency uses the capital appropriation to fund the delivery of new infrastructure. For transparency, the Agency manages the funding by allocating sufficient funding to the operating appropriation to deliver the activities planned. Any shortfall is reflected in the capital appropriation and is managed using the loan facilities detailed below.
Annual Appropriations - Loans for the Management of Cash Flow for a Three Year NLTP within the Annual Government Budget Cycle
The NLTP is a three-year programme, with the New Zealand Transport Agency Board required to approve funding for activity over multiple years. Variations in project timing, cost overruns and fluctuations in revenue may result in expenditure in a particular year exceeding the available funds, despite being within the expected range over the three years. Such negative cash flow variations may require adjustments to the land transport programme in the short to medium term.
This has been addressed by approving a borrowing facility to manage short-term cash flow variations between hypothecated revenue inflows and expenditure outflows. The facility allows the New Zealand Transport Agency greater flexibility and efficiency in managing the timing of any required adjustments to the programme. This loan has two components:
- up to $175 million, for the purpose of managing regular seasonal cash flow cycles (to be repaid during the construction off-season, when revenue inflows exceed expenditure), and
- up to $75 million, for the purpose of managing unexpected and unavoidable cash flow variations.
The New Zealand Transport Agency is in charge of managing the facility and it draws down the loan and makes repayments as revenue levels permit. The constraint is that the loan balance may not exceed $250 million at any time. In calculating the size of the appropriation, only drawdowns can be taken into account and so the appropriation of $500 million shown above is not a reflection of the net funding being provided. The size of actual drawdowns can be seen in the figures for previous years. The Agency reports quarterly to the Minister of Transport on the ongoing management of the loan against its terms and conditions.
Loans for Specific Projects
The Crown has provided a loan facility to the New Zealand Transport Agency from the Housing Infrastructure Fund. $357 million is available over the five years from 2018/19 to 2022/23. Previously, loans have been provided to the New Zealand Transport Agency to accelerate projects in the Auckland transport package and for the reinstatement of earthquake-damaged roads in Christchurch.
Other Roading Funding from the Crown
Land transport revenue is intended to be the primary source of funding for the roading activities within the NLTP but the Crown can appropriate additional funding if it wishes. The other funding for roading is for specific projects such as the reinstatement of State Highway 1 between Picton and Christchurch, urban cycleways, regional State highways, and Provincial Growth Fund infrastructure projects.

Capital - Investment in the New Zealand rail system
This equity funding is provided to support capital expenditure by KiwiRail Holdings Limited for the New Zealand rail system. The Crown appropriated $400 million to support capital expenditure for 2015/16 and 2016/17, $490 million to support capital expenditure for 2017/18 and 2018/19, and $235 million to support capital expenditure for 2019/20 of which $50 million has been provided from the Provincial Growth Fund. As part of the Future of Rail review, the Crown has appropriated an additional $741 million to support working capital ($331 million), rolling stock investment ($375 million), and procurement of new ferries ($35 million). This investment is to support a resilient and reliable freight rail system and network, and interisland connection.
Capital - Loans and Equity
This balance mainly reflects existing loans being rolled over and so requiring an appropriation.
Capital - Property Transactions
This balance reflects property transactions by New Zealand Railways Corporation, the proceeds of which must be reinvested in KiwiRail Holdings Limited. An appropriation is required to recognise the increase in equity in KiwiRail Holdings Limited due to the receipt of these proceeds. This appropriation is not additional funding from the Crown.
Other Projects - Operating and Capital Funding
For 2019/20 and outyears, the projects include the upgrade of the Wellington metro rail network ($44 million), maintenance of the existing electric locomotive fleet ($13 million), and public policy and railway safety work ($4 million). This also includes funding for rail-related projects that contribute to the outcome of a lift in the productivity potential of the regions from the Provincial Growth Fund ($34 million).
Auckland City Rail Link
This funding is for the Crown's 50% share of costs ($468 million for 2019/20) for the Auckland City Rail Link which is being delivered by City Rail Link Limited. The Crown is a co-sponsor of the project along with the Auckland Council. The Auckland City Rail Link is expected to be complete by 2024/25.
Rail Funding to Other Parties
In 2014/15 and earlier funding was mainly to Auckland Council for the Auckland Electric Multiple Unit package. There was a loan of $490 million over 2012/13 - 2014/15 and a grant of $90 million in 2014/15.
Funding to Crown Entities
2014/15 | 2015/16 | 2016/17 | 2017/18 | 2018/19 | 2019/20 | 2020/21 | 2021/22 | 2022/23 | |

Most transport Crown entity activity is funded from the NLTP or fees and charges and so the Crown funding is relatively small. The capital funding 2014/15 - 2016/17 was $10 million to Maritime NZ, mainly to replace a ground station for the search and rescue system ($8 million) and develop an information technology system ($3 million), and $3 million to the Aviation Security Service to fund baggage screening equipment. A loan facility is in place for $97 million over 2019/20 and 2021/22 to provide loans to the Civil Aviation Authority for the purpose of investing in Aviation Security Service security screening equipment.

- SuperGold Card public transport concessions ($30 million), and
- purchase of weather forecasting services from the Meteorological Service of New Zealand ($25 million).

The funding of motor vehicle register and road user charges administration activity has been undergoing change and this is reflected in the decrease in line 1 of the table above.
From 2014/15, the administration fees for road user charges activity became third party revenue of the New Zealand Transport Agency and the related Non-Departmental output expense appropriation was disestablished.
Tolling revenue comes from the Northern Gateway road that is tolled by the Crown to repay the costs of the road.
Other revenue in past years was mainly related to the motor vehicle register and so has decreased due to the changes noted above. Other revenue is now only fines, which are usually around $1 million per annum.

This balance reflects the proceeds of the property transactions by New Zealand Railways Corporation, which must be reinvested in KiwiRail Holdings Limited. The receipts are reflected in the Crown's books and there is an equal appropriation to recognise the increase in equity in KiwiRail Holdings Limited. The appropriation is included in the Rail Funding section earlier in this document as Capital - Property Transactions.

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
This appropriation reflects the Ministry of Transport's forecast capital expenditure. Capital purchases are often one off in nature, which accounts for variations in this appropriation between years. The fit-out of a new office space for the Ministry of Transport is reflected in the 2018/19 capital expenditure. The Ministry has been in temporary accommodation since the November 2016 Kaikoura earthquake. Software upgrades and licence purchases are reflected in the 2019/20 forecast capital expenditure.

End of Year Performance Reporting

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The appropriation represents the operating expenditure of the National Land Transport Programme (NLTP) and its size varies each year depending on the activities in the Programme and the land transport revenue available.
The Government Policy Statement on land transport identifies ranges of expenditure that the government wishes to commit to different land transport activities. The New Zealand Transport Agency in conjunction with regional bodies then develops the NLTP, detailing how the funding will be spent and what it will deliver within the ranges. The Government Policy Statement is a ten-year document which is reviewed every three years. The NLTP is a three-year document. A revised Government Policy Statement was in force from 1 July 2018 relating to the years 2018/19 to 2027/28 and a new NLTP in force from 1 September 2018 relating to the years 2018/19 to 2020/21.
The current indicative expenditure for 2018/19 and 2019/20 is shown above in the Components of the Appropriation table. Expenditure may vary year on year for activities depending on the particular work being undertaken. More detail is available from the New Zealand Transport Agency's website.
