The 2021–22 Actual Total Comprehensive Result is a surplus of $17.029 million, which is an improvement of $17.994 million on the 2021–22 Budget.

The improvement was largely due to the receipt of Commonwealth funding that will be spent over two financial years and additional funding provided for the consolidation of youth custodial services.

* Variation between 2021–22 Budget and 2021–22 Actual

The increase in Net assets between the 2021–22 Budget and 2021–22 Actual is mainly due to:

decreases in current liabilities reflecting lower payables and employee benefits provisions
decreases in non-current liabilities, reflecting revaluation of employee provisions; partially offset by
reductions in current assets, reflecting lower than anticipated cash held
reductions in non-current assets, reflecting sale of properties and asset revaluations that occurred after the establishment of the 2021–22 Budget.
