Topic and key questions<br />

Feedback<br />

Performance plans<br />

- Would <strong>performance</strong> plans help to improve the<br />

quality of non-financial reporting by<br />

Commonwealth entities by improving front-end<br />

planning<br />

- At what level should <strong>performance</strong> information<br />

and <strong>performance</strong> plans be developed and<br />

reported by entities<br />

- Would a <strong>performance</strong> plan draw out early<br />

feedback on the appropriateness of particular<br />

<strong>performance</strong> measurements<br />

Proposed elements of a <strong>performance</strong> plan<br />

- Could the financial information provided in the<br />

current programme expenses table in the<br />

Portfolio Budget Statements be restructured,<br />

over time, to represent more of a resourcing<br />

view, rather than an appropriation view<br />

- Could the table represent resources available to<br />

an organisation under the broad headings of<br />

‘Annual appropriations’, ‘Special appropriations’<br />

and ‘Other’, and also show capital directly<br />

attributable to the programme<br />

- Is the level of information proposed to be<br />

included in <strong>performance</strong> plans appropriate and<br />

useful How can this be improved<br />

- How much information and effort should be<br />

required at each level of reporting, especially<br />

where the outcome, risk and complexity are<br />

assessed as being low<br />

- If a <strong>performance</strong> plan was adopted, what would<br />

be the key enablers for its success<br />

- If a <strong>performance</strong> plan was adopted, when might<br />

be an appropriate time for its introduction<br />
