NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Analysis of Financial Statements at pages 131 -132 provides an overview of the key elements of Geoscience Australia’s financial statements, including variations in major aggregates from 2003-04 to 2004-05. An overview of the key features of the Australian Government’s accrual budgeting framework is provided in Part A: User Guide at pages 4 - 7 of these PB Statements. Section 4: Purchaser-provider and cost recovery arrangements PURCHASER-PROVIDER ARRANGEMENTS 1. Department of Defence Cross agency overview Geoscience Australia manages the capture, presentation and distribution of topographic maps and data over Australia on behalf of the Department of Defence. This enables the Department of Defence to concentrate its efforts off-shore, where the highest security related priorities lie. This is a Ministerial arrangement and Service Level Agreements are in place to define the scope of the services and the responsibilities of the customer. Responsibility The Department of Defence require maps and data as a vital part of defence planning and operation. Geoscience Australia’s contribution to this is maps, data production at various scales for various purposes, and map storage and distribution. Control arrangements A fully costed work program is developed for each financial year. This is endorsed by an Inter-agency Coordinating Group (ICG). The ICG meets twice a year and is chaired on rotation, by the Director, Defence Imagery and Geospatial Organisation, and Chief Executive Officer, Geoscience Australia. These meetings address production status, financial matters, forward planning and standards and specification issues. The Technical and Operational Program Leaders meet monthly to review operational and financial issues. These arrangements are reported annually to the Ministers for Defence and Industry, Tourism and Resources. Resourcing Geoscience Australia facilitates the arrangement and manages the contracts for a panel of private sector mapping companies who are responsible for all of the on-shore map and data production. Geoscience Australia is also responsible for map distribution. Performance against outcomes of purchased outputs The Department of Defence requires the most up to date maps and data of Australia for protection of Australia’s national interests. Geoscience Australia has a mandate to provide fundamental spatial data in accordance with the Commonwealth Spatial Data Access and Pricing Policy. The performance measures and indicators are outlined in Table 2.2.1 (measure and indicator 4). COST RECOVERY ARRANGEMENTS The amount of cost recovery revenue generated by Geoscience Australia is $0.580m. This amount is less than the $5m threshold required for provision of a Cost Recovery Impact Statement. Geoscience Australia’s cost recovery activities are scheduled for review in 2007-08.

As a result, and in order to establish best practice and a consistent approach across all jurisdictions, Ministers endorsed the formation of an independent national offshore safety authority. From 1 July 2004, the National Offshore Petroleum Safety Authority (NOPSA) will be an agency prescribed under the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997. It is scheduled to commence operations on 1 January 2005 from headquarters in Perth, Western Australia. The Authority will operate pursuant to the Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act 1967 (the PSLA) and its primary role will be to promote the occupational health and safety of persons engaged in offshore petroleum operations in Commonwealth, State and Territory coastal waters. The Authority has monitoring, enforcement and investigative responsibilities in relation to offshore petroleum operations and will make reports including recommendations to the Commonwealth Minister and State and Territory Ministers. An advisory Board will be appointed to give advice and make recommendations about operational policies and strategies to the Chief Executive Officer, Commonwealth, State and Territory Ministers and the MCMPR. The primary role of NOPSA will be to administer the PSLA and pursue the following objectives:
151 The activities which will be undertaken by NOPSA to achieve these objectives have been agreed within the context of regulation of Australia’s offshore petroleum industry by a “safety case” regime. The essential aspects of a safety case regime are that the operators accept full responsibility for minimising the risks of their operations to a level which is as low as reasonably practical. Operators will achieve this by systematically identifying the risks of their activities and setting out their risk management strategies to minimise risks. NOPSA’s role will be to provide guidance as to whether the risk management strategies are likely to be effective and adequate. The safety case would form the rules by which the safe operation of a facility is governed. APPROPRIATIONS AND RESOURCING A Chief Executive Officer has been appointed from 1 July 2004 and will oversight the implementation and formation of the new agency with assistance from officers from the Department of Industry, Tourism and Resources (DITR). To fund this implementation phase, DITR will receive departmental funding of $2.0 million for 2004-05 only. This was announced as part of the 2002-03 Budget. NOPSA will receive no appropriation from the Government and will operate on a full cost recovery basis generating sufficient revenue to recover its annual operating expenses, which are forecast to be $3.5 million for 2004-05 (January to June). The Offshore Petroleum (Safety Levies) Act 2003 provides the authority for NOPSA to charge a safety case levy, a pipeline safety management plan (PSMP) levy and an investigations levy. This Act allows NOPSA to fully recover the costs of its regulatory activities in relation to assessment and maintenance of safety cases, assessment of PSMPs and for major investigations. Further details of NOPSA’s cost recovery arrangements are set out on pages 160 - 162. As part of the implementation phase, NOPSA will undertake a comprehensive recruitment exercise to ensure the agency is fully resourced to commence operations on 1 January 2005. Officers recruited during this period will have their salaries paid by DITR from the departmental appropriation provided for the NOPSA implementation.
