Official description
Source: ACCOUNTANT-GENERAL'S DEPARTMENT Data Last Updated: 20/03/2026 Update Frequency: Annual Footnotes: Data refer to the Government's financial year, which begins on 1 April of the current year and ends on 31 March of the following year. Refinements have been made over time to the sectoral classification of Ministries' expenditure to better reflect the nature of the programmes. Data for FY2026 are budgeted estimates. Data for FY2025 are revised estimates. Data up to FY2024 are actual figures. Figures may not add up due to rounding. A revised estimate refers to updates to a previously published estimate for a given Financial Year (FY). Actual figures are the finalised, audited financial position of the Government.
