(*)The total of' 'Administration budget' and 'Near-cash in Resource DEL' figures are greater than total resource DEL, due to the definitions overlapping. (* *)Capital DEL includes items treated as resource in Estimates and accounts but which are treated as Capital DEL in budgets. (***)Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from total DEL since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting. |
