Output Group/Output 2010-11 Budget 2010-11 Estimate 2011-12 Budget $000 $000 $000 Local Government, Regional and Community Services 86 208 95 283 99 963 Local Government 74 603 79 325 84 975 Regional Development 5 737 7 104 6 051 Interpreter and Translator Services 5 170 7 916 7 989 Water Safety and Animal Welfare 698 938 948 Key Variations The Local Government output increase in 2010-11 is primarily due to the transfer of $6million in Commonwealth-funded programs from 2009-10 into 2010-11, additional Commonwealth funding of $5.9million for the National Job Creation Package and the Local Government Capacity Building Project, and additional one-off Territory funding of $0.9million for the Community Development Employment Projects (CDEP) Conversion to Real Jobs initiative. The increase is partly offset by a Commonwealth payment of $7.3million for financial assistance grants expected in 2010-11 but received in 2009-10. The increase in 2011-12 is predominantly due to additional funding of $10million for the Shires Indigenous Employment Package. The increase in the Regional Development output in 2010-11 is primarily due to carryover of funding from 2009-10 into 2010-11 and one-off Commonwealth funding to support the Indigenous Business Development Program.
