(1-2) The line item adjustments is a balancing item and equates to movements in cash balances, payables, receivables, superannuation depreciation and accrual accounting movements within the financial statements. These elements conform to Australian Accounting standards. The information required to answer the question asked by the Member is not readily available and would require considerable time and divert staff away from their normal duties.
