Explanatory Notes and Comments: (1) There are 111 FMA Act Agencies, including 20 Departments of State, 3 Parliamentary Departments and 87 prescribed Agencies. (2) Department of State means a Department of State as provided for in section 64 of the Australian Constitution. Section 5 of the FMA Act provides for all Departments of State to be FMA Act Agencies. (3) Prescribed Agency means prescribed Agency, that is, the Agency is prescribed under regulation 5 of the FMA Regulations in Schedule 1 of the FMA Regulations, which lists all prescribed Agencies. (4) Parliamentary Department means a Department of the Parliament. Section 5 of the FMA Act provides for all Departments to be FMA Act Agencies. (5) General Government Sector means that the agency is classified in Government Finance Statistics in the General Government Sector. The GGS sector, public non-financial corporations and public financial corporations are classifications based on those used by the Australian Bureau of Statistics and comply with international standards. The primary function of entities classified in the GGS sector is to provide public services that are mainly non-market in nature, and for the collective consumption of the community, or that involve the transfer or redistribution of income. These services are largely financed through taxes and other compulsory levies, although user charging and external funding have increased in recent years. All FMA Act Agencies are classified in the GGS sector. (6) Material means material entity as classified by the Department of Finance and Deregulation. This means that the body is included in the group of Commonwealth entities which together make up at least 99% of total revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities based on the audited financial statements of those entities amended for known changes to materiality. Material entities are required to produce more detailed financial information than non-material entities, for the purposes of providing monthly, end-of-year and estimates reports to the Department of Finance and Deregulation. 19 Departments of State are material in nature. (7) Executive Agency (recorded against some agencies in the far right hand column) means the agency has been made an Executive Agency, through an Order made by the Governor-General, under subsection 65(1) of the Public Service Act 1999, whereby the Agency Head employs APS employees for that Agency. (8) Statutory Agency (recorded against some bodies in the far right hand column) means the agency is identified in its enabling legislation as a Statutory Agency for the purposes of the Public Service Act 1999, whereby the legislation provides for the Agency Head to employ APS employees for that Agency. Disclaimer: This list is not a prescribed list. While the Department of Finance and Deregulation needs to be consulted by agencies in relation to the creation or abolition of any FMA Act agencies, this list is provided for general information only and readers should obtain specialist advice before acting on it. In particular, for confirmation of the ABN for any entries, please check with the relevant Agency. Updated 17 August 2011
