Notes to and Forming Part of the Financial Statements

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for year ended 30 June 2015

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1.1 Objectives of the Office of the Inspector-General of Intelligence and Security

The Office of the Inspector General of Intelligence and Security (OIGIS) is an Australian Government controlled not-for-profit entity. The objective of OIGIS is to meet the following outcome:

Independent assurance for the Prime Minister, senior ministers and Parliament as to whether Australia's intelligence and security agencies act legally and with propriety by inspecting, inquiring into and reporting on their activities.

OIGIS's activities contributing towards this program are classified as departmental. Departmental activities involve the use of assets, liabilities, income and expenses controlled or incurred by OIGIS in its own right.

The continued existence of the OIGIS in its present form and with its present programs is dependent on government policy and on continuing funding by Parliament for OIGIS's administration and programs.

1.2 Basis of Preparation of the Financial Statements

The financial statements are general purpose financial statements and are required by section 42 of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013.

The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with:

  • Financial Reporting Rule (FRR) for reporting periods ending on or after 1 July 2014; and
  • Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that apply for the reporting period.

The financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention, except for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Except where stated, no allowance is made for the effect of changing prices on the results or the financial position.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and values are rounded to the nearest dollar.

Unless an alternative treatment is specifically required by an accounting standard or the FRR, assets and liabilities are recognised in the statement of financial position when and only when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity or a future sacrifice of economic benefits will be required and the amounts of the assets or liabilities can be reliably measured. However, assets and liabilities arising under executory contracts are not recognised unless required by an accounting standard. Liabilities and assets that are unrecognised are reported in the schedule of commitments.

Unless alternative treatment is specifically required by an accounting standard, income and expenses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when and only when the flow, consumption or loss of economic benefits has occurred and can be reliably measured.

1.3 Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

In the process of applying the accounting policies listed in this note, OIGIS has made the following judgments that have the most significant impact on the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

  • Leave provisions involve assumptions on the likely tenure of existing staff, future salary movements and future discount rates.

1.4 New Australian Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Australian Accounting Standard Requirements

OIGIS has elected to apply AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities for this financial year, even though the Standard is not required to be applied until annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. AASB 2015-7 provides relief from disclosing quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used in fair value, where property, plant and equipment is held for its current service potential rather than to generate future net cash inflows.

The following new standard was issued prior to the sign-off date and is applicable to the current reporting period:

  • AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting applied from 1 July 2014 and resulted in significant disclosure requirement changes.

Future Australian Accounting Standard Requirements

New/revised standards, interpretations and amending standards that were issued prior to the sign-off date and are applicable to the future reporting periods are not expected to have a future financial impact on the entity.

1.5 Revenue

Revenue from Government

Amounts appropriated for departmental appropriations for the year (adjusted for any formal additions and reductions) are recognised as Revenue from Government when OIGIS gains control of the appropriation, except for certain amounts that relate to activities that are reciprocal in nature, in which case revenue is recognised only when it has been earned. Appropriations receivable are recognised at their nominal amounts.

Other Types of Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when:

  • the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer;
  • the agency retains no managerial involvement or effective control over the goods;
  • the revenue and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and
  • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity.

Revenue from rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date. The revenue is recognised when:

  • the amount of revenue, stage of completion and transaction costs incurred can be reliably measured; and
  • the probable economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity.

The stage of completion of contracts at the reporting date is determined by reference to the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to the estimated total costs of the transaction.

Receivables for goods and services, which have 30 day terms, are recognised at the nominal amounts due less any impairment allowance account. Collectability of debts is reviewed as at end of reporting period. Allowances are made when collectability of the debt is no longer probable.

1.6 Gains

Resources Received Free of Charge

Resources received free of charge are recognised as gains when, and only when, a fair value can be reliably determined and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. Use of those resources is recognised as an expense.

The main resources received free of charge in 2014-15 are office space (from the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet) and the installation and maintenance of the OIGIS owned internal secure computer network (from Defence Signals Directorate).

Contributions of assets at no cost of acquisition or for nominal considerations are recognised as gains at their fair value when the asset qualifies for recognition, unless received from another Government agency or authority as a consequence of a restructuring of administrative arrangements.

Sale of Assets

Gains from disposal of assets are recognised when control of the asset has passed to the buyer.

1.7 Transactions with the Government as Owner

Contributed Equity

Amounts appropriated which are designated as 'equity injections' for a year (less any formal reductions) and

1.8 Employee Benefits

Liabilities for 'short-term employee benefits' (as defined in AASB 119 Employee Benefits) and termination

benefits expected within twelve months of the end of the reporting period are measured at their nominal amounts. The nominal amount is calculated with regard to the rates expected to be paid on settlement of the liability.

Other long-term employee benefits are measured as net total of the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period minus the fair value at the end of the reporting period of plan assets (if any) out of which the obligations are to be settled directly.

Leave

The liability for employee benefits includes provision for annual leave and long service leave. No provision has been made for sick leave as all sick leave is non-vesting and the average sick leave taken in future years by employees of OIGIS is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave.

The leave liabilities are calculated on the basis of employees' remuneration at the estimated salary rates that will be applied at the time the leave is taken, including OIGIS's employer superannuation contribution rates to the extent that the leave is likely to be taken during service rather than paid out on termination.

The liability for long service leave has been determined by using the short hand method per the FRR. The estimate of the present value of the liability takes into account attrition rates and pay increases through promotion and inflation.

Superannuation

Staff of OIGIS are members of the Commonwealth Superannuation Scheme (CSS), the Public Sector Superannuation Scheme (PSS), the PSS accumulation plan (PSSap) and other industry super funds outside the Commonwealth.

The CSS and PSS are defined benefit schemes for the Australian Government. The liability for defined benefits is recognised in the financial statements of the Australian Government and is settled by the Australian Government in due course. This liability is reported in the Department of Finance's administered schedules and notes.

The PSSap is a defined contribution scheme.

OIGIS makes employer contributions to the employees' superannuation scheme at rates determined by an actuary to be sufficient to meet the current cost to the Government. OIGIS accounts for the contributions as if they were contributions to defined contribution plans.

The liability for superannuation recognised as at 30 June represents outstanding contributions for the final

1.9 Cash

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand and any deposits in bank accounts with an original maturity of 3 months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to

1.10 Financial Assets

OIGIS classifies its financial assets as 'loans and receivables'.

Financial assets are recognised and derecognised upon trade date.

Effective Interest Method

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset, or, where appropriate, a shorter period.

Loans and receivables

Trade receivables, loans and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as 'loans and receivables'. Loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment. Interest is recognised by applying the effective interest rate.

Credit terms are net 30 days (2013–14: 30 days).

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period.

1.11 Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities.

Financial liabilities are recognised and derecognised upon 'trade date'.

Other Financial Liabilities

Supplier and other payables are recognised at amortised cost. Liabilities are recognised to the extent that the goods or services have been received (and irrespective of having been invoiced).

Settlement is usually made net 30 days.

1.12 Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets

Contingent liabilities and contingent assets are not recognised in the statement of financial position but are reported in the relevant schedules and notes. They may arise from uncertainty as to the existence of a liability or asset or represent an asset or liability in respect of which the amount cannot be reliably measured. Contingent assets are disclosed when settlement is probable but not virtually certain and contingent liabilities are disclosed when settlement is greater than remote.

OIGIS has no contingencies to report in either 2013-14 or in 2014-15.

No contingent rentals exist.

1. From 2010-11, the Government introduced net cash appropriation arrangements, where revenue appropriations for depreciation/amortisation expenses ceased. Entities now receive a separate capital budget provided through equity appropriations. Capital budgets are to be appropriated in the period when cash payment for capital expenditure is required.

Note 6 Fair Value Measurement

The following table provides an analysis of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. The different levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined below:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at measurement date.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The OIGIS's assets are held for operational purposes and not held for the purposes of deriving a profit. The current use of all controlled assets is considered their highest and best use.

Note 6B – Level 1 and Level 2 Transfers for Recurring Fair Value Measurements

There were no transfers between levels during 2014-15.

OIGIS's policy for determining when transfers between levels are deemed to have occurred can be found in Note 1.

All revaluations are independent and are conducted in accordance with the revaluation policy stated in Note 1.14. The most recent revaluation was conducted by the B&A Valuers as at 30 June 2014.

All assets were examined for indicators of impairment during the stocktake completed on 30 June 2015 and none were found. With the exception of the secure IT system (which is due to be upgraded in late 2015) no items of property plant and equipment are expected to be sold or disposed of within the next 12 months. Note: the components of the secure IT system which are due for upgrading were given appropriate useful lives during the revaluation exercise in 2014 and were consequently not assessed as impaired at 30 June 2015.

The net fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are at their carrying amounts. OIGIS derived no interest income from financial assets in either the current and prior year.

Note 13B – Credit Risk

OIGIS has endorsed policies and procedures for debt management (including the provision of credit terms), to reduce the incidence of credit risk. In most instances debtors for OIGIS are other government entities and therefore represent minimal credit risk.

The carrying amount of financial assets, net of impairment losses, reported in the statement of financial position represents the Agencies maximum exposure to credit risk.

Note 13C – Liquidity Risk

OIGIS's financial liabilities only include payables. Any exposure to liquidity risk is based on the notion that OIGIS will encounter difficulty in meeting its obligations associated with financial liabilities. This is highly unlikely as OIGIS is appropriated funding from the Australian Government and manages its budgeted funds to ensure it has adequate funds to meet payments as they fall due. In addition, the entity has policies in place to ensure timely payments were made when due and has no past experience of default.

Note 13D – Market Risk

OIGIS holds only basic financial instruments that do not expose the agency to certain market risks, such as 'Currency risk' and 'Other price risk'.

Note 17B – Departmental Major Budget Variances for 2015

Explanation of major variances Affected line items (and statement)

At MYEFO the office received additional funding as part of the measure 'National Security- additional counterterrorism funding'. This included funding for five additional ASL for the full financial year. Three of these positions were filled with already cleared staff. Recruitment delays are associated with the lengthy security clearance process.

Impacted:

Revenue from government
Employee expenses
Supplier expenses
Appropriations receivable
Employee provisions
Other payables
Retained surplus
Cashflow statement operating activities

The variance is partly due to the effect on depreciation of changes in asset values and estimated remaining lives after the asset revaluation conducted at 30 June 2014.

Impacted:

Depreciation Expenses

The value of resources received free of charge (office space) was less than originally budgeted for.

Impacted:

Other Gains

The planned secure IT system upgrade was deferred until late 2015. The departmental capital funding was moved to 2015-16 during the year.

Impacted:
