Insert
Note 1: FMA Act Determination 2013/01 — Section 32 (Transfer of Functions from DCCEE to DIICCSRTE and DRET) repealed the table for the Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency (DCCEE) and replaced it with a new table. These amendments only dealt with the transfer of amounts appropriated in the administered item for DCCEE and did not deal with the transfer of amounts appropriated in the departmental item for DCCEE.
The administered item for Outcome 1 was reduced by $65,744,759.78 and this amount was transferred from the former DCCEE in part to the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research and Tertiary Education (DIICCSRTE) and in part to the Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism (DRET). Consequential amendments were also made to the table.
The amended administered item for Outcome 1 comprises administered amounts spent during 2012‑2013 by DCCEE, before DCCEE was abolished on 25 March 2013, together with excess administered amounts not required for the remainder of 2012-2013.
These changes were made to implement the amendments to the Administrative Arrangements Order made on 25 March 2013. Functions of the former DCCEE were transferred:
(a) in relation to climate change, to DIICCSRTE; and
(b) in relation to energy efficiency, to DRET.

After Note 4, insert
Note 5: FMA Act Determination 2013/01 — Section 32 (Transfer of Functions from DCCEE to DIICCSRTE and DRET) repealed the table for the Department of Industry, Innovation, Science, Research and Tertiary Education and replaced it with a new table for the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research and Tertiary Education (DIICCSRTE), the effect of which was to:
(a) recognise the change in the name of the Department;
(b) insert Outcome 4, and insert the administered item for Outcome 4, to transfer $13,321,839.15 of the unspent administered amount from the former Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency (DCCEE) to DIICCSRTE; and
(c) make consequential changes to the table.
The determination retains the Outcome 1 text from the former DCCEE for the new Outcome 4 of DIICCSRTE. This enables the relevant parts of the Portfolio Budget Statements tabled in relation to DCCEE at Budget 2012-2013 to be used for interpreting the relevant activities of DIICCSRTE.
Amendments to the table have been limited to those required to implement the changes in the Administrative Arrangements Order. Accordingly, references to the Industry, Innovation, Science, Research and Tertiary Education portfolio were not amended to reflect the new name of the Department, to maintain coherence with the existing structure of this Act, including the table of contents. On a related matter, orders made under section 19B of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 enable statutory references to a particular Department’s name to be read as a reference to a new Department’s name.
These changes were made to implement the amendments to the Administrative Arrangements Order made on 25 March 2013. Functions of the former DCCEE in relation to climate change were transferred to DIICCSRTE.
