2014-15 Queensland State Budget - Service Delivery Statements – Department of Tourism, Major Events, Small Business and the
Commonwealth Games 6SERVICE PERFORMANCE Services Our service areas are: Tourism and Events Development Tourism and Events Development service area promotes sustainable industry growth by delivering a strategic, whole-of-Government approach to the future of tourism. It works across Government to improve the planning and approval processes for new tourism industry projects. The service area helps ensure industry has opportunities to invest in our State’s tourism activities, supporting the Government’s objectives for the community to grow tourism as one of the four pillars of the economy and invest in better infrastructure and better planning for our State. Initiatives such as an ecotourism investment model and the Attracting Aviation Investment Fund showcase Queensland as an investment destination attracting investment into our State’s tourism products. This service area also focuses on developing future events for Queensland to ensure our State’s tourism industry and economy benefit from the boost that major events provide. It also works in partnership with the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation to plan and prepare for the Commonwealth Games. The department delivers its Tourism and Events Development service in close partnership with Tourism and Events Queensland to ensure events attraction and tourism marketing help grow tourism and to double annual overnight visitor expenditure from $15 billion to $30 billion by 2020. Business to Government Services This service area ensures the government can effectively provide information and services to business, encourage small business growth and foster a diverse economic base for Queensland. Aligned with the department’s objectives to provide a stronger digital and online presence, it promotes engagement by businesses with its interactive online services. This not only improves accessibility to whole of Government business information and services but encourages more effective service delivery by having feedback mechanisms directly connected to our existing services. Small businesses represent over 96% of businesses State-wide and employ almost half of all private sector workers. These businesses are essential for a vibrant Queensland economy. Client satisfaction with Government’s services is measured to ensure we continue to meet business and industry needs. 2014-15 Queensland State Budget - Service Delivery Statements – Department of Tourism, Major Events, Small Business and the Commonwealth Games 7
Red tape reduction
In 2013-14 the department further improved services for businesses via the Queensland
Government’s Business and Industry Portal (BIP) by releasing new online support resources to
reduce red tape and assist small businesses in tendering for government procurement opportunities.
The online tendering resources included:
x guides for helping small businesses develop competitive tender responses and help them
through the process of supplying to government
x a ‘fit to supply’ diagnostic tool to help businesses determine their supplier capability and a list
of key resources to help enhance supplier capabilities
x a specialised search function for the ‘Q-Tender’ database of government open tender
opportunities.
Resources were developed by the department in collaboration with the Department of Housing and
Public Works and the Department of State Development, Infrastructure and Planning; and used
experience from the London 2012 Olympic Games and the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games in
equipping small and medium sized businesses to tender for commercial contracts.
In 2014-15, the department will further progress our ongoing work to reduce red tape through the
use of SmartForms technology. This will involve the transformation of manual paper-based business
forms to online transactions saving businesses both time and money.

Notes:
1. Strict procedures are in place under the Attracting Aviation Investment Fund Operational Framework to
ensure timeframes are met. During this period no applications required further data to be provided or
in-depth analysis to be undertaken and hence 100% of applications considered were processed within
nine working days.
2014-15 Queensland State Budget - Service Delivery Statements – Department of Tourism, Major Events, Small Business and the
Commonwealth Games 92. The original targets reflected business grants, licencing and regulation information when only a small
proportion of the services were delivered online. These services have now been transitioned to a fully
online self-service environment and the targets have now been revised downwards to reflect this
environment. The reduced unit benefit/saving will be partially offset in cost avoided by businesses due
to the significant increases in the volume of activity.
3. The previous methodology for calculating benefits/savings to business is being re-examined to ensure it
is still appropriate and inclusive of online delivery. This review will also consider if it is still appropriate
to measure efficiency and costs avoided separately, or to develop a combined measure.
4. This measure relies on customer-reported value of services delivered online. The value attributed
typically varies with consumption, business sentiment, business conditions and portal brand
recognition. The target has been revised down due to customers already operating online and the
dramatic reduction in costs already been achieved.
5. The reduction between 2013-14 Target/Estimate and 2013-14 Estimated Actual principally relates to
the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games (GC2018) being contributed directly from the City of Gold
Coast Council, rather than as appropriation revenue for services. Also contributing to the reduction is
the realignment of funding to match anticipated cashflows for the Gold Coast Show Relocation,
Attracting Aviation Investment Fund (AAIF), DestinationQ (DQ) and the GC2018. This is partially offset
by funding for development of the Theme Park Capital of Australia advertising campaign.
6. The increase between 2013-14 Target/Estimate and 2013-14 Estimated Actual principally relates to
revenue from the City of Gold Coast Council for the GC2018.

development of the Theme Park Capital of Australia advertising campaign.
8. The reduction between 2013-14 Target/Estimate and 2014-15 Target/Estimate principally relates to the
GC2018 being contributed directly from the City of Gold Coast Council, rather than as appropriation
revenue for services. The reallocation of controlled funding for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth
Games Corporation from controlled to administered contributes to the reduction. This is partially offset
by an increase due to the realignment of funding to match anticipated cashflows for projects including
the Gold Coast Show Relocation, AAIF, DQ, GC2018 and increased funding for the AFC 2015 Asian Cup.

Commonwealth Games 12BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ANALYSIS OF BUDGETED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
An analysis of the department’s budgeted financial statements, as reflected in the department’s
financial statements, is provided below.
Departmental income statement
Total expenses are estimated to be $107.4 million in 2014-15, an increase of $12.3 million from the
2013-14 financial year. The increase is mainly due to additional funding in 2014-15 for the 2018 Gold
Coast Commonwealth Games and increased funding for the AFC 2015 Asian Cup and the Attracting
Aviation Investment Fund. This is partially offset by a reduction as a result of the reclassification of
payments to the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation from 1 July 2014 from
controlled to administered.
The variation in funding over the forward estimates is the result of increased activity associated with
preparations for the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games primarily relating to the development
and construction of venues.

2014-15 Queensland State Budget - Service Delivery Statements – Department of Tourism, Major Events, Small Business and the
Commonwealth Games 20EXPLANATION OF VARIANCES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
From 1 July 2014 departments (excluding commercialised business units) will no longer be liable for payroll
tax. To provide comparable cost forecasts across all periods, the 2013-14 Adjusted Budget and the 2013-14
Estimated Actual have been recast to reflect the removal of payroll tax from Employee expenses and an
associated reduction has been made to Appropriation revenue. The 2013-14 Adjusted Budget Appropriation
revenue and Employee expenses have been reduced by $0.385 million. The 2013-14 Estimated Actual
Appropriation revenue and Employee expenses have been reduced by $0.399 million.
Income statement
Major variations between 2013-14 Adjusted budget and 2013-14 Estimated actual include:
1. The reduction principally relates to the revenue for GC2018 being contributed directly from the City of
Gold Coast Council, rather than as appropriation revenue for services. Also contributing to the
reduction is the realignment of funding to match anticipated cashflows for the Gold Coast Show
Relocation, Attracting Aviation Investment Fund (AAIF), DestinationQ (DQ) and the GC2018. This is
partially offset by funding for development of the Theme Park Capital of Australia advertising campaign.
2. The increase principally relates to revenue from the City of Gold Coast Council for the GC2018.
3. The increase is principally due to the reallocation of expenses between employee expenses and supplies
and services for the expected growth occurring in the GC2018.
4. The reduction is mainly due to a realignment of expenses to match anticipated cashflows for the
GC2018 and DQ.
5. The reduction principally relates to a realignment of expenses to match anticipated cashflows for the
