149E: Content of statement of performance expectations

You could also call this:

"What a Crown entity plans to do and how it will measure its success"

Illustration for Crown Entities Act 2004

When a Crown entity makes a statement of performance expectations, it must include certain information for a financial year. You need to know what outputs the entity will deliver, and which of these are important enough to be reported on. The entity must also say if it has been exempt from reporting on some outputs, as allowed by section 149F(1)(a).

The statement must include financial forecasts that follow the rules set out in section 149G. For each important output, the entity must explain what it is trying to achieve, how much money it expects to receive and spend, and how it will measure its performance.

The statement of performance expectations must follow standard accounting practices, be in writing, and be signed by two members of the board or the sole member of the corporation.
