2 28 February 2006 DH Treasury Report: 2006 Budget - Revised Vote Revenue: Joint recommendations with Inland Revenue Executive Summary 1. At the pre-bilateral meeting on Monday 27 February 2006 Treasury was instructed to negotiate with Inland Revenue an agreed position in terms of the Vote Revenue funding with a view to eliminating the potential impact on Inland Revenue s performance, including the level of tax revenue. We understand that this was confirmed with Mr Dunne in a subsequent discussion. 2. Officials have had further discussion enabling us to propose new agreed recommendations, attached. 3. The new agreed recommendations require an additional $ million in 2006/07, decreasing to an additional $ million in 2009/10, to be allocated to Inland Revenue in Budget 2006, compared with what had previously been recommended by Treasury ($ million in 2006/07, increasing to $ million in 2009/10) (T2006/254 refers). This takes total additional funding recommended by Treasury and Inland Revenue in this bilateral to $ million in 2006/07 (increasing to $ million in 2009/10). Treasury s earlier advice had been prepared on the basis that some degree of reduced performance could be contemplated in light of the overall fiscal constraint. 4. [Information deleted in order to enable the Crown to negotiate without disadvantage or prejudice]. 5. In view of the government s focus on remuneration pressures you may wish to have a broader discussion on Inland Revenue s approach to managing labour costs.

3 Recommended Action We recommend that you read the attached briefing and use it as a basis for reaching decisions in the Vote Revenue bilateral with Hon Peter Dunne on 1 March [Information deleted in order to protect the privacy of natural persons, including deceased people] for Secretary to the Treasury Hon Dr Michael Cullen Minister of Finance T2006/284 : 2006 Budget Revised Vote Revenue: Joint recommendations with Inland Revenue Page 3
4 Treasury Report: 2006 Budget - Revised Vote Revenue: Joint recommendations with Inland Revenue Purpose of Report 1. To advise you of details of the bilateral funding package jointly recommended by Treasury and Inland Revenue for Vote Revenue, following discussion at the pre-bilateral briefing on Monday 27 February 2006 that you desired Treasury and Inland Revenue to reach an agreed position. Analysis 2. At the pre-bilateral meeting on Monday 27 February 2006 Treasury was instructed to negotiate with Inland Revenue an agreed position in terms of the funding for Vote Revenue with a view to eliminating the potential impact on Inland Revenue s performance including the impact on tax revenue. We understand that this was confirmed with Mr Dunne in a subsequent discussion. 3. Discussions between Inland Revenue and Treasury on Tuesday 28 February 2006 with this objective in mind have lead to a largely agreed position. 4. The agreed position requires an additional $ million in 2006/07, decreasing to $ million in 2009/10, to be allocated to Inland Revenue in Budget This additional funding: is on top of the funding previously recommended by Treasury ($ million) for Vote Revenue, taking the total recommended additional funding to $ million in 2006/07 rising to $ million in 2009/10; is $ million (or 30%) less than Inland Revenue had originally proposed; and [Information deleted in order to enable the Crown to negotiate without disadvantage or prejudice].. 5. You should note that Treasury recommendations for the Other Allocation (as reported in BR2006/24) balanced over the term, though it was $7 million oversubscribed in 2006/07. The revised recommendations for Vote Revenue added to Treasury s recommendations for the remainder of the Other Allocation would result in the allocation being oversubscribed by $29 million in 2006/07 and $7 million in the outyears. 6.
