Accounting Policy

Administered Cash Transfers to and from the Official Public Account

Revenue collected by the department for use by the Australian Government rather than the department is reported as administered revenue. Collections are transferred to the Official Public Account which is maintained by the Department of Finance. Cash is drawn from the Official Public Account by the department to make payments under Parliamentary appropriation on behalf of the Australian Government. These transfers to and from the Official Public Account are adjustments to the administered cash held by the department on behalf of the Australian Government and reported as such in the administered cash flow statement and in the administered reconciliation schedule.
