From the Chief Executive
The Department for Infrastructure and Transport (the
Department) delivered important infrastructure projects,
transport improvements and essential services for South
Australians in the 2021-2022 financial year, while
continuing to respond to the impacts of COVID-19.
A key focus for the 2021-2022 financial year was the continued delivery of a
multi-billion dollar pipeline of infrastructure investment, resulting in some of the
Department’s major projects being completed or achieving significant milestones.
In June 2022, passenger services returned to the Gawler rail line, the second line to
be electrified across the Adelaide Metropolitan rail network. The new electrified line
between Adelaide and Gawler provides a cleaner, quieter, and faster service for the
thousands of northern suburbs commuters who use it every day. The Department
also took delivery of four new electric trains during the year, with a further eight to be
delivered in 2023.
The new Granite Island Causeway at Victor Harbor opened to pedestrians in
December 2021. The new Causeway will ensure that Granite Island continues to be
a major tourism drawcard for Victor Harbor and the Fleurieu Peninsula and provides
better and more reliable access to the island.
To celebrate the Ngarrindjeri and Ramindjeri Traditional Owners’ continued
connection to Country, the Granite Island Causeway project team worked closely
with five local Indigenous artists to create a continuous Aboriginal artwork along the
length of the structure. The artwork features etchings of 11 characters from Ngarrindjeri
and Ramindjeri Dreaming stories, as well as connecting motifs.
Two of the biggest road infrastructure projects ever undertaken in regional South
Australia, the Port Wakefield Overpass and Highway Duplication and Joy Baluch AM
Bridge Duplication projects, also reached major milestones, as work continues.
The new Copper Coast Overpass north of Port Wakefield was opened to traffic in
December 2021. The overpass removes all hazardous at-grade turn movements at
the intersection of the Port Wakefield Highway, Copper Coast Highway and Augusta
Highway.
In May 2022, traffic was switched onto the newly constructed section of the
duplicated Joy Baluch AM Bridge in Port Augusta for the first time, to allow work to
begin to upgrade the old bridge. A community event was held to mark the occasion,
with thousands of locals taking the unique opportunity to walk over the new section
before it opened to traffic.

Being born and raised in Port Augusta, I am particularly proud of the achievement and
the legacy it will leave.
Major works commenced in early 2022, on other major regional infrastructure
upgrades including the Augusta Highway Duplication Project between Port Wakefield
and Lochiel, and Fleurieu Connections Main South Road and Victor Harbor Road
Duplication Projects. Together, these projects are worth nearly $1 billion and will
support more than 1,000 jobs throughout their construction over the next few years.
The Department’s ongoing program of metropolitan intersection upgrades continued
throughout 2021-2022, with road users now benefitting from completed upgrades at
the intersections of Main North Road and Nottage Terrace; Main North Road, Kings
Road, and McIntyre Road; and Portrush Road and Magill Road. Traffic was also
switched onto the newly constructed Torrens Road Bridge in June 2022, as part of
the Ovingham Level Crossing Removal Project, removing the need for traffic to stop
for passing trains on the Gawler rail line and improving safety.
During the year, the Department progressed the delivery of over 100 social
infrastructure construction projects to upgrade existing and develop new schools,
correctional facilities, hospitals and sporting facilities. This included the delivery of
over 60 school projects to facilitate the move of Year 7 students into high school
from the start of the 2022 school year.
Our transport infrastructure planning staff continued to undertake the necessary
planning work required to ensure high-priority projects and programs are
shovel-ready for delivery and completed a detailed submission on a new initiative for
Adelaide Inner Ring Route capacity improvements for inclusion on the Infrastructure
Australia Infrastructure Priority List.
Intense rain events and subsequent flooding in early 2022, across the Eyre Peninsula
and the north of the State caused extensive damage to large sections of the sealed
and unsealed road network, resulting in extensive road closures. The Department
and its contractors worked together under difficult conditions to repair and reopen
key rural arterial and outback roads, reconnecting communities and restoring freight
movement of essential supplies across the nation.
The challenges of COVID-19 continued throughout the year, with impacts on the
availability of materials, availability of public transport drivers and staffing at Service
SA centres. The Department took a collaborative and flexible approach to overcome
these challenges and continues to progress projects and deliver essential services
for our customers.
The Department finalised a new contract with SeaLink to continue to run ferry
services between the mainland and Kangaroo Island until at least 2039. As part of
OFFICIAL

the new arrangement, SeaLink agreed to reduce fares for Kangaroo Island residents,
increase services and deliver two new modern larger vessels.
The Reform of Across Government Facilities Management Arrangements was
completed, with the new arrangements coming into effect on 1 December 2021.
Under these arrangements, Ventia coordinates maintenance and repairs at
government assets like hospitals, schools and prisons.
The Department delivered a range of projects and initiatives to make public and
passenger transport more convenient and accessible for South Australians. These
included completing the construction of the Golden Grove Park ‘n’ Ride and
expanding the metropolitan boundary for point-to-point passenger transport services,
so they could operate in the Adelaide Hills and Mount Barker Council regions.
The Department implemented changes to reduce the time people with a disability
need to wait for an access taxi, including better incentives and a stronger regulatory
framework, and progressed the driver trainer industry reform program by undertaking
broad-ranging consultation and preparing legislation for Parliament aimed at
providing greater accountability, compliance activities and improving the safety of
novice drivers.
The new online learner driver education program myLs launched online in October
2021, providing a better introduction to the roads for novice drivers. Designed to
improve learner driver education, the myLs course focuses on road rules, road
safety, and driver attitudes and behaviours, giving new drivers the best possible start
before they get behind the wheel. Additionally, the range of Service SA transactions
that can be completed online was extended and improvements were made to the
online customer service, while selected Service SA centres were refurbished.
Changes were also introduced to South Australia’s motorcycle Graduated Licensing
Scheme in November 2021, to improve rider safety, including raising the minimum
age for a learner’s permit and R-Date licence by two years and introducing a blood
alcohol content penalty for R-Date licence (or less) holders.
The Department also released a new Road Safety Strategy to 2031, setting
important 10-year targets, including halving fatalities and reducing serious injuries by
30 per cent. The Road Safety Infrastructure Program continued to provide funding
for upgrades to regional roads to achieve a minimum Three Star Safety rating. Work
is continuing along a number of regional road corridors, including the Sturt, Horrocks,
Spencer, and Eyre highways.
The Department also marked some key internal agency milestones in 2021-2022.

The Department’s blended learning model for
employees provides 70% of learning through
on-the-job experience, 20% through mentoring,
coaching and networks and 10% through formal
training programs. It ensures learning and
development is not only achieved through formal
education and structured learning but is also reliant
on experiences and exposure.
During 2021-2022, $1.2 million was invested in
formal learning and development for employees
with a strong focus on building capability on how we
get things done to deliver results through
occupation specific training and leadership
development. Our training investment has been
impacted by reduced employee participation and
training attendance with COVID-19 being a
significant contributing factor.
78% of employees (including managers) had
completed formal performance management
reviews as at 30 June 2022. The Department
continues to maintain a performance culture
underpinned by regular conversations between
employees and managers to develop capability and
review progress against performance standards and
role outcomes. In 2021-2022, the Department has
had a strong focus on embedding a culture of
conversation being a core component of our
performance management framework. This
includes delivering a training program to employees
and managers to enhance their skills to have critical
conversations as well as providing resources and
online tools to support employees and managers to
document priorities and outcomes.
Executive Performance Executive performance continues to be monitored
through the enhanced executive performance
reporting process, with all executives completing

The Department has performance-based franchise contracts with bus, tram and
train operators that keeps the operator focused firmly on the efficiency and quality of
service delivery to customers. The government retains ownership of rail assets
(including trains, trams, tracks, stations, and all infrastructure); sets requirements for
levels of services; continues to set the fare price for travel on bus, tram and trains
and retains the revenue.
Public transport bus and tram services across metropolitan Adelaide are provided by
four private transport providers: Torrens Transit Pty Ltd which operates three
contract areas (East West, Outer North and Outer North East); Busways South
Australia Pty Ltd which operates the Outer South contract area; and Australian
Transit enterprises Pty Ltd trading as Southlink which operates the Hills contract
area. Torrens Connect (a joint venture between Torrens Transit Pty Ltd, UGL Rail
Services Pty Ltd and John Holland Pty Ltd) provides both bus and light rail services
in the North-South contract area.
The bus and tram contracts commenced on 5 July 2020. Rail Infrastructure
Maintenance for tram functions (i.e. within track, civil, signalling and overhead)
transitioned to Torrens Connect on 31 January 2021, in line with the commencement
of the new train contract.
The Outsourced Rail Operations Agreement (OROA) with Keolis Downer Adelaide
commenced on 31 January 2021, for the operation and maintenance of the Adelaide
Metropolitan Passenger Rail Network (AMPRN), which consists of six commuter
routes on four main lines with the provision of asset management and rolling stock
maintenance services.
Public transport services in regional South Australia are also administered by the
Department. These include regular route services (country bus services), provincial
city services, integrated transport plans, special medical-related services and
Dial-a-Ride services.
The Department supports community passenger networks across regional South
Australia and within metropolitan Adelaide. The Community Passenger Networks
Program is established to facilitate access to transport for people who are transport
disadvantaged. The program is jointly funded by the Commonwealth Home Support
Program and the South Australian Department of Human Services.
The Department is committed to continually improving public transport services and
infrastructure and making public transport more accessible and easier to use for all
users. The metropolitan bus fleet is now 100% accessible.
The Department's Station Upgrade Program continues to upgrade selected stations
along metropolitan passenger rail lines to provide safer and more efficient services
for train customers, with all improvements focusing on accessibility in line with the
Disability Discrimination Act 2002, for public transport services. Improved facilities
for commuters include new shelters, improved lighting, platform furniture, additional
cover, improved access, pedestrian crossings, bike enclosures, additional CCTV
cameras, new access paths and ramps along with new car parking facilities.
Departmental officers at the Adelaide Railway Station monitor accessibility gates
and provide 'sighted guide' assistance to passengers to board trains if needed.
Information regarding accessible journeys is published on the Adelaide Metro

Special event services
On 23 October 2014, an amendment to the Passenger Transport Act 1994, was
enacted with respect to the management and funding of public transport for special
events. The aim of the legislation is to facilitate the successful planning of special
events in metropolitan Adelaide by requiring mandatory notification of major events
and also to provide a mechanism for the costs of additional public transport services
required for the event to be recovered where the event is considered a "commercial
event".
The key elements of the legislation include the requirement for venue managers to
notify the Department six months in advance (or as soon as the event is known) of
any event expected to attract more than 5,000 patrons and, where additional public
transport services are required, that commercial events contribute to the cost of
these extra services.
Events are classified as one of two different categories of event for the purposes of
the legislation. The two categories are:
Commercial Events: organised for profit where there is a fee for participants
either in the form of a ticket or an indirect fee i.e. membership of a club or
association; or
Community Events: organised as not for profit, the event is open to the
community and attendance is free or a voluntary donation from attendees may

Based on the information provided in the notification form, the Department will make
a determination regarding the need for additional or special public transport services
to cater for the event and, where extra services are required, events categorised as
"commercial" will be required to fund the services.
During 2021-2022, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to have a significant impact
on special events with many events either cancelled or considerably scaled back
with respect to crowd numbers permitted. Major events that were held during
2021-2022, albeit with reduced crowd numbers, included cricket, AFL football and
the Christmas Pageant. All of these events were held at Adelaide Oval with
additional, special AOX services operating across the bus, train and tram network,
to and from the event. While crowds were significantly reduced, the Department
maintained a full suite of services to assist patrons to maintain social distance while
on special public transport services. Despite the reduced crowds during 2021-2022,
an average of 40% of the crowds attending AFL matches at Adelaide Oval used
public transport to travel to and from the events. During 2021-2022, all cruise ships
were cancelled and therefore the Department was not required to provide additional
public transport and customer support services for these visits as has been required
in previous years.
Regional services
The Department regulates and contributes to funding transport services in some
regional areas.
Regular route services operate across regional South Australia and link major
centres to Adelaide. Services operate in the Barossa Valley, Murray Mallee, Mid
North, Upper North, Far North, Riverland, Eyre, South East and Fleurieu regions.
Integrated transport services operate in the Coorong District Council, Karoonda East
District Council, Murray District Council, Southern Mallee District Council, Mid
Murray District Council, Southern Yorke Peninsula, Tatiara District Council, Eastern
Riverland, Upper North, Mid North, Adelaide Hills, Victor Harbor and on Kangaroo
Island.
Dial-a-Ride door to door services are provided in Victor Harbor, Port Lincoln, Murray
Bridge, the Copper Coast and Barossa Valley. These supplement regular timetabled
services and extend the range of public transport options for these communities.
On 28 June 2022, the Department commenced Phase One of a competitive market
process for the regional bus service contracts. As part of this competitive process,
the Department has consolidated 28 existing regional contracts to 19 contracts with
contracts 1-14 (representing 21 of the current 28 contract areas, expiring on 30 June
2023) included in Phase One and contracts 15-19 (representing seven of the 28
current contract areas) to be released to market in mid-2023.
Regional Contractors are legally obliged to ensure their vehicles fully comply with
the Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport by 31 December 2022.

2021-2022 ANNUAL REPORT for the Department for Infrastructure and Transport

OFFICIAL
In the four years prior to the COVID-19 pandemic patronage on regional bus
services decreased by an average of 5.7% per year. This decrease has in part been
attributed to cheaper regional airfares, internet banking/services/shopping and people
generally choosing to use cars rather than travelling long distances on buses.
In 2021-2022, regional patronage was further impacted during the state-wide
lockdown in July 2021, when the border opened in November 2021, and as a result
of the increase in COVID-19 cases since December 2021.
Based on data provided by regional bus operators, regional bus patronage in
2021-2022 was 555,783, a decrease of 7.38% from the previous year.
Provincial city bus services
Regular passenger services operate in South Australia's provincial cities of Port
Lincoln, Port Pirie, Whyalla, Port Augusta, Murray Bridge and Mount Gambier.
Provincial city services are a combination of town and school services.
In the four years prior to the start of COVID-19, provincial city bus service patronage
decreased by an average of 1.6% each year.
Based on data provided by provincial city bus operators, patronage in 2021-2022
was 316,800, a decrease of 21.22% from the previous year. As with the other
regional bus services, the decrease is due to the further impacts of COVID-19 and
passengers appearing to have changed their travel habits or choosing alternative
options rather than travelling, such as telehealth appointments, on-line shopping,
and delivery services.
Throughout 2021-2022 the COVID-19 Financial Support Package was provided to
contracted regional bus service operators. This assisted in alleviating the financial
strain on contractors due to their loss of patronage, and therefore fare revenue.
This package was critical in ensuring that these essential services were maintained
for the regional communities.
Complaints, commendations and submissions
Feedback on public transport
Feedback from customers about passenger transport services is welcomed as it
helps SAPTA to improve and assess existing services and practices. Customers are
presented with multiple opportunities to provide their feedback through the Adelaide
Metro website, Adelaide Metro InfoLine and InfoCentre, as well as social media
such as Facebook and Twitter. Complaints represented 0.02% of total public
transport patronage (initial boardings and transfers) in 2021-2022, with an increase
of 3,556 (41.5%) compared to the previous year. There was an increase of 101
commendations (16%) compared to the previous year.

As at June 2022, there were 4,974 SPVs in the metropolitan area that can provide
point to point services.
Waiting times
The taxi centralised booking services reported that the average waiting time for
general taxis in metropolitan Adelaide for 2021-2022 was 9 minutes and 50 seconds
during the day (6am to 6pm), and 8 minutes at night (6pm to 6am). The figures
include waiting times for phone-booked, hailed and taxi rank trips and meet the
prescribed waiting time of 12 minutes, as stated in the conditions for accreditation.
There were 1,035 general licences in metropolitan Adelaide in 2021-2022.
Access Taxis
The taxi centralised booking services reported that the average waiting time for
Access Taxis in metropolitan Adelaide for 2021-2022 was 6 minutes and 13 seconds
during the day (6am to 6pm) on weekdays and 8 minutes and 3 seconds on
weekends, and 17 minutes and 44 seconds on a weekday night (6pm to 6am).
OFFICIAL
2021-2022 ANNUAL REPORT for the Department for Infrastructure and Transport

OFFICIAL
Approximately 9,286 Access Taxi jobs took more than 30 minutes to pick up the
passenger. This compares with 12,798 in 2020-2021, noting this statistic has been
reviewed and updated from that previously reported.
There are 101 general licences with special conditions (Access Taxis).
Passenger Transport Standards Committee
The Passenger Transport Standards Committee (PTSC) is a statutory committee,
established under the Act, responsible for exercising disciplinary powers under Part
4, Division 5 of the Act and for exercising or performing such other powers or
functions as may be conferred by the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport from
time to time.
In 2021-2022, the PTSC sat on 107 occasions and considered 579 matters which
comprised:
149 accreditation applications; and
430 disciplinary matters.
Of the 430 disciplinary matters, the PTSC:
suspended the accreditation of 284 accredited persons for a period of time;
revoked the accreditation of 124 accredited persons and disqualified them for
a period of time; and
permanently disqualified 1 person from holding accreditation under the Act.
The remainder were dealt with by other actions, such as a fine, reprimand, caution
issued; or found to have no cause to answer.
Disciplinary matters included people who failed to demonstrate they met the
standards and requirements to hold an accreditation under the Act.
Temporary suspensions primarily related to administrative matters, such as the
suspension of a driver’s licence through the fines enforcement system, or following
an alcohol related driving offence or after the expiry of annual medical clearances.
In these instances, the suspension remains until the driver’s licence has been
reinstated or until the updated medical report is provided indicating that the person
meets the commercial medical standards to drive a public passenger vehicle.
The majority of accreditation revocations relate to interstate driver’s licence transfers,
as a driver cannot hold an accreditation in South Australia if they do not live in the
state (with the exception of cross-border workers). Others had their accreditation
revoked because their working with children check had been revoked, or their
driver’s licence was disqualified or cancelled.
After holding an enquiry, the PTSC found no cause for disciplinary action against
nine accredited persons, while the remaining accredited persons were fined or
reprimanded.
In addition to the above disciplinary matters, the PTSC also placed conditions on the
accreditation of one person.

mySAGOV account.
Native Title SA Name field available for customers to add to their residential
address on their driver’s licence.
New functionality introduced to the mySAGOV account:

Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
About the Department for Infrastructure and Transport
The Department for Infrastructure and Transport (the department) is a government department of the State of
South Australia, established pursuant to the Public Sector Act 2009. The department is an administrative unit
acting on behalf of the Crown.
The financial statements and accompanying notes include all the controlled activities of the department.
The department does not control any other entity and has no interests in unconsolidated structured entities.
Transactions and balances relating to administered resources are not recognised as departmental controlled
income, expenses, assets and liabilities.
As administered items are significant in relation to the department’s overall financial performance and position,
they are disclosed in the Administered Financial Statements which are disclosed following the controlled
departmental general purpose financial statements. Except as otherwise disclosed administered items are
accounted for on the same basis and using the same accounting policies as for departmental transactions.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements are general purpose financial statements prepared in compliance with:
section 23 of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1987;
Treasurer’s Instructions and Accounting Policy Statements issued by the Treasurer under the Public
Finance and Audit Act 1987; and
relevant Australian Accounting Standards.
The financial statements have been prepared based on a 12 month reporting period and presented in
Australian currency. The historical cost convention is used unless a different measurement basis is disclosed.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except:
when the GST incurred on a purchase of goods or services is not recoverable from the Australian Tax
Office (ATO) in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part
of the expense item applicable; and
receivables and payables, which are stated with the amount of GST included.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to the ATO is included as part of receivables in the
Statement of Financial Position.
Assets and liabilities that are to be sold, consumed or realised as part of the 12 month operating cycle have
been classified as current assets or current liabilities. All other assets and liabilities are classified as
non-current.
Significant accounting policies are outlined in Note 8.4 and within the Notes.

Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the department
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to impact on the operations of the department in the 2021-22
financial year. The estimate of the key impacts on the department in 2021-22 were:
Additional $9.5 million in cleaning and sanitising measures across the public transport network and
the rollout of QR check-in codes to enhance public safety;
A financial assistance package of $4.2 million to ensure that regional passenger bus services remain
viable, and the service is maintained for community needs;
A reduction in public transport ticket and associated revenue due to less demand for services (refer
note 2.2);
Provision of free public transport for SA Health staff;
Assisting SAPOL with state border closure by providing traffic management and variable message
signs; and
The mobilisation of staff to assist with State COVID-19 initiatives.
In addition to the above impacts, the department continued to deliver key infrastructure projects stimulating
the economy and enabling the post pandemic recovery.

The following are brief explanations of variances between original budget and actual amounts. Explanations
are provided for variances where the variance exceeds the greater of 10% of the original budgeted amount
and 5% of original budgeted total expenses.
a) Australian Government sourced funding was lower than original budget largely due to the timing and
recognition of Australian Government contributions towards several major projects.
b) Additional costs related to bus substitution services, increased public transport operating costs, additional
road maintenance works and works associated with flood damage.
c) Includes asset construction expenditures transferred to the Department of Premier and Cabinet in 2021-

National Land Transport Act 2014 .
** Roads to Recovery funding received under the Nation Building Program (National Land Transport) Act 2014.
*** Commonwealth grants received for the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program.
Australian Government sourced grants and funding are recognised in accordance with AASB 1058 as income
on receipt.
Obligations under Australian Government sourced grants and funding are required to be met by the State of
South Australia. Where the department receives the grant monies via the Department of Treasury and Finance
(DTF), for accounting purposes the obligations under the funding arrangements do not sit with the department.
Hence, where the delivery of the programs, or infrastructure does not align with payments received by the
State, contract assets or liabilities will be recognised by DTF as the representative of State of South Australia,
not the department.
Where the department receives the grant monies directly from the Australian Government (i.e. Roads to
Recovery funding and Local Roads and Community Infrastructure program) the department is the
representative of the State and the obligations under the funding arrangements rest with the department. This
funding is recognised progressively as the department satisfies its obligations under the agreement through
expenditure on these programs. As at 30 June 2022 the department did not have any unsatisfied obligations
on the revenue recognised as all funds were spent.

Revenues are derived from the provision of goods and services to other SA Government agencies and to the
public. These revenues are driven by consumer demand and are recognised upon the delivery of those goods
and services to the customers or by reference to the stage of completion.
Maintenance services:
In its role as one of the across government facilities management service providers the department manages
property maintenance and enhancement services to its portfolio of buildings, facilities and assets. The
department recovers the cost of providing these services from participating agencies under the Across
Government Facilities Management Arrangements (AGFMA). This revenue is recognised over time once the
department has satisfied its performance obligations. Participating agencies are invoiced in arrears of the
performance obligations being satisfied.
The South Australian Government has entered into a contract for the administration and works coordination
role for the AGFMA, effective from 1 December 2021. The new service provider, Ventia, is managing facilities
services provision for all Participating Government Agencies, for all their facilities state-wide which includes
the recovery of the costs of providing these services directly from the participating client agencies.
Other sale of goods and services:
Project and contract management fees
The department acts as project manager for major capital works in relation to government buildings and
government accommodation and for a range of minor capital works and maintenance type activities associated
with the role of facilities manager. The department charges a fee to recover the cost of its project management
activities which is recorded as revenue over time as it delivers the service.
Contract Balances:
As at 30 June 2022 the department held contract assets of $22.197 million ($46.594 million) included in the
balance of receivables (note 6.2) in relation to Sales of Goods and Services revenue.

Employee benefits accrue to employees as a result of services provided up to the reporting date that remain
unpaid. Long term employee benefits are measured at present value and short-term employee benefits are
measured at nominal amounts.
Salaries and Wages, Annual Leave, Skills and Experience Retention Leave (SERL) and Sick Leave
The liability for salaries and wages is measured as the amount unpaid at the reporting date at remuneration
rates current at reporting date.
The liability for annual leave and the skills and experience retention leave is expected to be payable within
12 months and is measured at the undiscounted amounts expected to be paid.
No provision has been made for sick leave as all sick leave is non-vesting and the average sick leave taken in
future years by employees is estimated to be less than the annual entitlement for sick leave.
Long Service Leave
The liability for long service leave is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made
in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of reporting period using the projected unit credit
method. Details about the measurement of long service leave is provided as Note 11.1.

The useful life of an asset is generally determined on the basis of “economic useful life to the department”.
The useful lives of all major assets held by the department are reassessed on an annual basis.
All non-current assets having a limited useful life are systematically depreciated/amortised over their estimated
useful lives in a manner that reflects the consumption of their service potential. Land, unsealed roads (graded
and formed), rail and road earthworks, road pavement sub-base, non-current assets held-for-sale and works
in progress are not depreciated.
The value of building assets under finance lease is amortised over the asset’s useful life. Capitalised software
is amortised over the useful life of the intangible asset.

Review of accounting estimates
In 2021-22 the department reassessed the useful life of some of its assets. This review resulted in a decrease
of $2.9 million in depreciation expense for the 2021-22 year relative to the amount that would have been
expenses based on the previous estimate of the useful life.

5.1 Land, Buildings and Facilities (continued)
Valuation of Land, Buildings and Facilities
For non-specialised land, buildings and facilities the valuer arrived at fair value using the market approach.
The valuation was based on recent market transactions for similar land, buildings and facilities in the area and
includes adjustments for factors specific to the land, buildings and facilities being valued, such as size and
location. Refer to note 11.2.
Specialised land i.e. land dedicated to marine purposes and land in the rail corridor, have their values
discounted to account for the restriction in their use to arrive at fair value. These land categories usually
comprise of individual parcels.
For specialised buildings and facilities, the valuer used depreciated replacement cost due to there not being
an active market for such buildings and facilities. The valuation was based on a combination of internal
records, specialised knowledge and acquisition/transfer costs. Rail infrastructure assets were indexed using
the appropriate construction index and the revaluation was done by the Office of the Valuer-General.
Land under Road and Land for Current Projects are not revalued, the department currently has an exemption
to Treasurer’s Instruction (Accounting Policy Statement) 116.C. The Department of Treasury and Finance
coordinates with Valuer-General to ensure asset value attributed to Land under Road on the consolidated
financial report is recorded at fair value. Land for Current Projects is land acquired for ongoing construction
projects, they are usually transferred to Land under Road on project completion. Land under Roads is only
recognised after 1 July 2008.
In 2021-22, government employee housing was revalued. The fair value for marine, metro rail and some
corporate land and building were reviewed in accordance with the Department policy. The valuation and fair
value review was undertaken by the Office of the Valuer General.
Right-of-Use (ROU) Buildings
Right of Use (ROU) buildings leased by the department are recorded at cost. Movements in the ROU buildings
are shown in the above movement schedule. Short term leases of 12 months or less and low value leases
where the underlying asset value is less than $15,000 are not recognised as right-of-use assets. The
associated lease payments are recognised as an expense and disclosed in Note 4.1.
The department leases properties from external landlords to provide office and other accommodation for the
whole of the government sector. These leases are recognised on the statement of financial position as right-
of-use building assets and lease liabilities in accordance with AASB16 Leases. The lease liabilities related to
the ROU buildings are disclosed in Note 7.2. The department’s maturity analysis of its lease liabilities is
disclosed in Note 11.3. Expenses related to leases, including depreciation and interest expenses, are disclosed
in Note 4. Cash outflows related to leases are disclosed in Note 8.3.

5.3 Network Assets (continued)
Valuation of Roads and Structures
Approval has been granted by the Treasurer for a variation to the requirements of Treasurer's Instructions
(Accounting Policy Statements), which requires an independent valuation appraisal be performed at least
every 6 years. The variation enables the department to value its road and structures assets using an internally
developed revaluation methodology, with inputs for the key areas being provided by independent industry
experts.
The Department conducts annual review of road component and structures unit rates by an independent
external estimator. This measure is to ensure the Department Network asset portfolio is not significantly
different from fair value at reporting. The revaluation of Road Network assets is conducted every 5 years.
The unit rate used for the 2020-21 annual review was as at 30 June 2021, this review date is a deviation from
the Department usual practice of valuing its asset as at 1 July of the reporting period. In 2021-22, road network
asset was not revalued, the fair value as at 30 June 2021 was adopted to be the fair value as at revaluation
date (1 July 2021). An assessment was conducted to determine the impact of restating 2020-21 financial
statement, however it was determined the overall impact across 2020-21 and 2021-22 financial years is
immaterial.
The Department adopts a network asset valuation model. This approach is defined as valuing a group of assets
by applying representative stereotypes and associated unit rates (developed by independent experts) to
calculate replacement costs.
All road and structures assets are valued at written down replacement cost by senior professional engineers
with the knowledge and expertise in that area. Independent recognised industry experts are engaged to
provide input with respect to key areas of the revaluation. As these assets have no active market, they are
measured at written down replacement cost which is considered to be their fair value.
The valuation model segments the network assets into components that have similar engineering and
functional characteristics. For the roads assets these components are:
Sealed road surfacings
Sealed road pavements Base
Sealed road pavements Sub Base
Sealed road earthworks
Each road component is then characterised by a representative stereotype. The main representative
stereotypes are Motorways, Heavy Urban, Light Urban, Heavy Rural, Light Rural and Unsealed Roads
(Sheeted, Graded, and Formed). Replacement unit rates are calculated based on the estimated resources
necessary to complete a ten-kilometre length for each stereotype. The Department estimates the current
replacement cost of the sealed pavements, surfacing and earthworks by multiplying the relevant replacement
cost unit rate by the surfacing areas and unsealed pavements by the carriageway area.
For structures assets, the calculation of current replacement cost are divided into a generic group and a specific
group. The generic group contains structures suitable for valuation using a unit rate per square metre of deck
area. This group contains most of the bridges culverts and large retaining walls controlled by the department.
Specific Group contains structures deemed unsuitable for valuation using the unit rate method. Structures in
the special group are valued individually by calculating the estimated cost of building a new structure using
current construction techniques.

Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
5.3 Network Assets (continued)
All roads and structures assets, except for earthworks and the pavement sub-base, are subject to depreciation.
While the methodology remains unchanged, at the last full revaluation (2019-20), the Department modified
some of the assumptions on the nature of costs included in the unit rate to reflect current practices and
improved information. Key changes were:
Using a ‘design and construct’ contract model rather than a “construct” only contract approach for some
stereotypes. This change results in the inclusion of contractor’s design, overheads and margin costs in
the estimated unit rates.
Inclusion of the department’s overhead charges.
Allocating road construction overheads cost to road components (i.e. earthworks, Sub-base, Base and
Surface) based on time spent for each component rather than on the component’s construction cost. The
time based approach has allocated more construction overhead costs to non-depreciation components
(earthworks and sub-base) compared to cost-based approach.
Increase in costs for improved standards of safety management and worker protection. This is now
allocated to all road components.
Inclusion of retaining walls as a new asset class for the structures revaluation
Valuation of Rail and Bus Network Assets
For specialised rail and bus network assets, the depreciated replacement cost was used in the valuation
methodology due to there not being an active market for rail and bus network assets. Valuation is usually
based on a combination of internal records, specialised knowledge and acquisition/transfer costs.

5.5 Intangible Assets (continued)
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are not revalued and are recorded at historic cost.
Intangible assets are identifiable as non-monetary assets without physical substance. Intangible assets are
measured at cost and are tested for indications of impairment at each reporting date. Following initial
recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated
impairment losses.
The useful lives of the intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. The department only has
intangible assets with finite lives. The amortisation period and method for intangible assets is reviewed on an
annual basis.

service potential. The basis for assessing loss of service potential includes current replacement cost and
technological or functional obsolescence.
Inventories of roadside materials are measured at historic cost and stores are measured on a weighted
average historic cost basis. Inventories held for works performed for clients external to the department are
measured at cost.

Valuation of Non-Current Assets Classified as Held for Sale
Non-current assets classified as held for sale generally consist of land and buildings that have been declared
surplus to the needs of the department for which a plan of sale has been determined, the sale is highly probable
and is expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification.
Non-current assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less
cost to sell in accordance with AASB 5 Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. The
assets in this category are re-valued upon reclassification in line with the valuation techniques outlined in notes
5.1 to 5.3. They are presented separately from the other assets in the Statement of Financial Position and are
not subject to depreciation.

6.2 Receivables (continued)
Trade receivables arise in the normal course of the provision of goods and services provided to other
government agencies and the public. Trade receivables are normally settled within 30 days after the issue of
an invoice or from when goods or services have been provided under a contractual agreement. Receivables
and accrued revenues are non-interest bearing.
Collectability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Other than as recognised in the allowance for
impairment loss on receivables, it is not anticipated that debtors will fail to discharge their obligations. The
carrying amount of receivables approximates their fair value due to being receivable on demand. There is no
concentration of credit risk.
Statutory receivables do not arise from contracts with customers. They are recognised and measured
similarly to contractual receivables (except impairment) but are not classified as financial instruments for
disclosure purposes.
Impairment losses relate to contracts with customers external to SA Government. No impairment loss was
recognised in relation to statutory receivables.
Finance lease receivables:
The department is responsible for managing whole of government office accommodation arrangements under
Premier and Cabinet Circular PC018. This includes leasing of accommodation from private landlords and
subsequent sub-leasing these properties to government agencies. Where the sub- lease meets the definition
of a lease under AASB16, and substantially transfers all the risks and rewards of the head lease to another
government agency, the department recognises a finance lease receivable for the net investment of the lease.
Finance lease receivables represent approximately 40 sub-leases.
During 2021-22, the department recognised finance income on finance lease receivables of $4.700 million
($4.665 million).
The following table sets out the maturity analysis of lease receivables, showing the discounted lease payments
to be received after the reporting date.

Payables and accruals are raised for all amounts owing but unpaid. Sundry payables are normally settled
within 30 days from the date the invoice is first received. Employment on-costs are settled when the respective
employee benefits that they relate to are discharged. All payables are non-interest bearing. The carrying
amount of payables represents fair value due to the amounts being payable on demand.
Statutory payables do not arise from contracts.
Employment on-costs
Employment on-costs include payroll tax and superannuation contributions with respect to outstanding
liabilities for salaries and wages and associated leave. The department makes contributions to several State
Government and externally managed superannuation schemes. These contributions are treated as an
expense when they occur. There is no liability for payments to beneficiaries as they have been assumed by
the respective superannuation schemes. The only payable outstanding at reporting date relates to any
contributions due but not yet paid.
As a result of an actuarial assessment performed by the Department of Treasury and Finance, the proportion
of long service leave taken as leave has remained unchanged from the 2021 rate of 42% and the average
factor for the calculation of employer superannuation cost on-cost has changed from the 2021 rate of 10.1%
to the rate of 10.6% in 2022. These rates are used in the employment on-cost calculation. The net financial
effect of the changes in the current financial year is an increase in the employment on-cost of
$0.228 million ($0.150 million). The estimated impact on 2022 and 2023 is not expected to be materially
different to the impact in 2022.

Provisions have been reported to reflect unsettled workers compensation claims, land remediation work
required under the Ports Corp Business and Sale Agreement and contractual arrangements regarding
outsourced heavy rail operations.
The department is responsible for the payment of workers compensation claims.
The workers compensation provision is based on an actuarial assessment of the outstanding liability as at
30 June 2022 provided by a consulting actuary engaged through the Office of the Commissioner for the Public
Sector Employment
The provision reflects the actuarial valuation of outstanding liabilities under the Return to Work Act 2014 and
Additional Compensation provisions. The provision is for the estimated cost of ongoing payments to employees
as required under current legislation.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
7.3 Provisions (continued)
The Additional Compensation provision entitlements are contained within relevant Public Sector Enterprise
Agreements and Awards. These provide continuing benefits to eligible workers with respect to certain work
related injuries and whose entitlements have ceased under the statutory workers compensation scheme
Return to Work Act 2014.
Measurement of the provision for worker’s compensation as at 30 June 2022 includes the impacts of the
decision of the Full Court of the Supreme Court of South Australia in Return to Work Corporation of South
Australia vs Summerfield (Summerfield decision). The Summerfield decision increased the liabilities of the
Return to Work Scheme (the Scheme) and the provision for workers compensation across government.
Legislation to reform the Return to Work Act 2014 was proclaimed in July 2022, with the reforms expected to
reduce the overall liability of the Scheme. The impacts of these reforms on the provision for workers
compensation across government will be considered when measuring the provision as at 30 June 2023.
Under the Outsourced Rail Operations Agreement, the department is liable for the Long Service Leave
associated with the contractors’ employees including staff that transferred to the contractor from the Rail
Commissioner.

Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
8.4 Significant accounting policies
Significant accounting policies not disclosed elsewhere in this report are detailed below.
Taxation
The department is not subject to income tax. The department is liable for payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, goods
and services tax (GST), emergency services levy, income tax equivalents and local government rate
equivalents.
The department prepares a Business Activity Statement on behalf of its controlled entities, administered items
and other clients to which it provides business services under the grouping provisions of the GST legislation.
Under the grouping provisions, the department is liable for the GST payments and entitled to the GST receipts
associated with these entities and items. The GST applicable forms part of the receivables and payables
recorded in the department’s Statement of Financial Position and the GST cash flows recorded in the
department’s Statement of Cash Flows.
The department is liable to pay income tax equivalents to the Consolidated Account in relation to the
commercial operations of the Property Directorate. In determining its tax equivalent commitments, the
department utilises the ‘Accounting Profits’ model as prescribed by Treasurer’s Instruction 22 -Tax Equivalent
Payments.
Under this model, income tax expense is calculated separately for each taxable entity by applying the
companies' income tax rate (currently 30%) to the accounting profit for the year. Income tax equivalent
payments are included in Payments to SA Government in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Business Overheads
The department adopts a full cost approach to recognising its infrastructure capital and recurrent works. This
methodology requires the allocation of a proportionate share of overheads to these activities. These overhead
costs include corporate overheads such as the cost of the traditional corporate areas, general whole of
department costs as well as business specific overhead costs.
These costs are allocated using a costing model developed to reflect the proportionate consumption of
overheads by output sections.
Contracts in progress
The department acts as project manager for major capital works in relation to government buildings or
government accommodation and for a range of minor capital works and maintenance type activities associated
with the role of facilities manager. The department charges a fee to recover the cost of its project management
activities which is recorded as revenue in accordance with AASB15.
The expenses incurred in undertaking these capital works and/or maintenance activities and the revenue
recovered from charging the respective government departments are recognised within the Statement of
Financial Position. The net of the expenditure incurred and the revenue recovered is accounted for as a
receivable or payable.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
8.4 Significant accounting policies (continued)
Non- Current Assets
Assets have been classified according to their nature and have not been offset unless required or permitted
by a specific accounting standard, or where offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or other event.
Acquisition and Recognition of Non-Current assets
The department capitalises non-current physical assets with an individual or grouped value of $10,000 or
greater in accordance with policies that are consistent with Treasurer’s Instructions (Accounting Policy
Statements) and the requirements of Accounting Standard AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment.
Exceptions to this policy are assets under construction, land and buildings and assets categorised as “grouped
assets” in the department’s policy which are capitalised irrespective of their value.
Assets under construction are capitalised from Capital Works in Progress to the appropriate asset classes at
the completion of the project. Project costs that do not meet the recognition criteria of an asset are expensed.
APS 1051.A specifies that land under roads acquired before 1 July 2008, are not to be recognised by the
department as an asset. However, any land under roads acquired after 1 July 2008 have been recognised by
the department in accordance with AASB 1051 Land Under Roads, paragraph 15, when the asset recognition
criteria is met. Land under roads includes land under roadways, road reserves, footpaths, nature strips and
median strips.
Buildings or other structures residing on land acquired for current road projects are not separately recognised
in the Statement of Financial Position. The costs incurred in acquiring the buildings in these instances are
deemed to be part of the costs of acquiring the land.
Non-current assets are initially recorded at cost or at the value of any liabilities assumed, plus any incidental
costs incurred with the acquisition. Where the department acquires assets at no cost, or minimal cost, these
items are recorded at their fair value in the Statement of Financial Position. If the assets are acquired at no or
nominal value as part of a restructuring of administrative arrangements then the assets are recognised at book
value i.e. the amount recorded by the transferor entity immediately prior to the restructure.
Revaluation of Non-Current Assets
In accordance with Treasurer’s Instruction (Accounting Policy Statements) the department revalues all its non-
current physical assets to their estimated fair value. Revaluations are performed only in instances where the
fair value of the asset or asset group at the time of acquisition is greater than $1.5 million and the estimated
useful life is greater than three years.
The department’s revaluation frequency is 5 years for Road Network assets and 6 years for other major
infrastructure assets. Residential property is revalued every year while government agency commercial
property is revalued every 3 years. The Department also conducts fair value reviews to ensure carrying value
is not materially different from asset fair value.
The department revalues its assets in accordance with the required timelines, depending on the nature or
purpose for which that asset is held. Assets are revalued by appropriately qualified valuation professionals,
internal experts using external estimators or internal estimates based on recent transactions/indices. All
valuers are independent unless otherwise indicated. The Valuer-General is considered an independent valuer
as the Valuer-General is independent of the other functions of the department.
When non-current assets are revalued, the department uses the gross method in accounting for most assets
except for land and buildings that are subject to commercial leases and held for provision of government
agency accommodation and for provision of housing of government employees in remote areas.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
8.4 Significant accounting policies (continued)
If at any time the carrying amount of an asset materially differs from its fair value, the department re-values
the asset regardless of when the last valuation took place. Non-current physical assets that are acquired
between revaluations are either held at cost until the next valuation or revalued if the fair value is likely to be
materially different from the acquisition value. The department assesses material differences in fair value from
notification from business units or changes in circumstances and environmental factors that the department
becomes aware of. Revaluation movements are recorded in the Revaluation reserves.
Upon disposal or de-recognition, any revaluation surplus relating to that asset is transferred to retained
earnings.
The valuation methodology applied to specific classes of non-current assets under revaluations and the timing
of asset valuations are disclosed in the Notes applicable to those assets. See Note 5.
Impairment
Non-current assets owned by the department carried at its fair value has not been assessed for impairment as
they are non-cash generating assets, that are specialised in nature and held for continual use of their service
capacity. However, assets held at cost is assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Revaluation of non-current assets is undertaken on a regular cycle as detailed in Note 5. If at any time
management considers that the carrying amount of an asset materially differs from its fair value, then the asset
will be revalued regardless of when the last valuation took place.
Remediation of Non-Current Assets
Land remediation undertaken by the department is primarily designed to restore the asset to its original state
or condition and would not normally meet the criteria for asset recognition under AASB 116 Property, Plant
and Equipment.
Where remedial work is to be performed in response to a present obligation, either under legislation or under
a contractual arrangement to a third party, the department recognises a provision for any future work in
accordance with the requirements of AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. Other
land remediation costs are therefore expensed in the period in which the obligation is recognised.
Leases
The department enters lease arrangements as both lessee and lessor.
Accounting standard AASB16 Leases came into effect in 2019-20 resulting in significant changes to the
departments accounting for leases.
The Treasurer’s Instructions (Accounting Policy Statements) specify the required accounting policies for public
authorities in applying AASB 16. These requirements are reflected in the department’s accounting policies as
follows:
AASB 16 is not applied to leases of intangible assets;
Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are not recognised for leases of low value assets, being assets
which have a value of $15 000 or less, nor short-term leases, being those with a lease term of 12
months or less;
the department, in the capacity of a lessee, does not include non-lease components in lease amounts;
Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured applying a cost model; and
the incremental borrowing rate published by the Department of Treasury and Finance is used when
the implicit rate in the lease is not able to be determined.
Significant accounting policies related to the application of AASB 16 are disclosed under the relevant notes.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
8.4 Significant accounting policies (continued)
Lease activities in the department:
As Lessee:
Commercial Property:
The department is responsible for the management of accommodation arrangements on behalf of other
government agencies under Premier and Cabinet Circular PC018 Government Office Accommodation
Framework (PC018). The department has approximately 280 leases of commercial properties from external
parties as well as departmentally owned properties to enable this. Approximately 220 of these external leases
include extension options.
Commercial accommodation leases with external parties are non-cancellable with terms ranging from 1 to 17
years. Lease extensions or options are typically renegotiated before the end of the current term. Rent is
generally payable monthly in advance. Leases include a fixed rate increase, CPI and/or periodic market review.
Major value leases typically have a predetermined fixed rate annual increase (between 2%-4%) factored into
the lease.
Office accommodation provided to general government sector agencies under PC018 do not meet the
definition of a lease under AASB 16. Revenue for these agencies is recognised under AASB 15 and classified
as Government accommodation rental income (refer note 2.6). Where the department leases this
accommodation from an external party the department records the Right-of-Use asset and Lease Liability on
its statement of financial position.
For some office accommodation provided to the general government sector agencies under PCO18 the
department provides accommodation incentives (e.g. fit out). These have been recognised as an asset and
are amortised against rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the arrangement with the
government sector agency.
Leased accommodation provided by the department outside of the scope PC018 are accounted for as leases
under AASB 16. Where the department acts as sub-lessor it recognises a Finance Lease receivable for the
net investment in the lease. Refer to Note 6.2.
Lease liabilities are classified as both current and non-current, with the minimum lease payments allocated
between borrowing costs and the reduction of lease liability for the period.
Right of Use assets are depreciated over the reasonably certain term of the lease.
Significant judgments/policy:
Reasonably certain
The lease term is the non-cancellable period of a lease including periods covered by an option to extend the
lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise this option.
Where a property lease has extension options, these have been included in the value of the ROU asset and
Lease liability where the department has assessed the lease extension option(s) is reasonably certain. The
department considers all relevant facts and circumstances when making this determination including the whole
of government accommodation strategy, economic conditions including relocation costs, operational needs of
sub lessee’s and relevant factors.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
8.4 Significant accounting policies (continued)
Lease components
Where a contract contains both lease and non-lease components such as asset maintenance services, the
department excludes the non-lease component amounts when determining the lease liability and right-of-use
asset amount in accordance with AASB16 and the Treasurer’s Instructions (Accounting Policy Statements).
In determining the non-lease component rate for property leases, the department has applied the
independently measured Property Council of Australia benchmark rates published for South Australia. This
rate is then applied to the minimum lease payments of multi-story office buildings to determine value of the
lease liability and lease asset.
Plant and Equipment:
The department leases plant and equipment for its operational use. This includes motor vehicles, office
equipment and other plant. Motor vehicles leases are with the South Australian Financing Authority (SAFA).
Motor vehicle leases are non-cancellable, with rental payments monthly in arrears. Lease terms can range
from 3 years up to 5 years, no contingent rental provisions exist and no options exist to renew the leases at
the end of the lease.
Where plant and equipment is leased from an external party the department records a Right-of-Use asset and
Lease Liability on its financial position when it meets the definition of a Lease under AASB16.
The department has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities arising from short-term
leases of less than 12 months and low value assets, being assets which have a value of $15 000 or less.
These lease payments are recognised as expenses on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements

8.4 Significant accounting policies (continued)
As Lessor:
Government Employee Housing
As lessor, the department recognises finance lease receivables from Government agencies in relation housing
in the remote area of the APY lands at an amount equal to the net investment of constructing the housing.
Finance lease interest income is recognised based on the periodic rate of return on that net investment. Lease
payments from the lessee are applied against the gross investment in the lease to reduce both the principal
and the unearned interest income.
Departmental Owned property
The department owns properties such as commercial buildings, land and other operating facilities. Where
these properties are leased to other entities they are treated as operating leases because the department
retains all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. That is the leases are
significantly shorter than the useful life of the underlying asset.
The department recognises lease payments from operating leases as rental income on a straight-line basis
over the term of the lease. Commercial accommodation operating leases are non-cancellable and rent is
payable in advance.
Recreational Jetties
The department has entered into leases as lessor, in regard to the Government’s Recreational Jetties
Divestment Program where jetties have been leased to Councils throughout the state. Peppercorn rents
of $1 per annum apply over the 25 or 99 year lease term for each lease.
Under the terms of the lease agreement, these leases have been categorised as finance leases due to the
passing of risks and benefits incidental to ownership to the lessee. The underlying assets have no value
recorded in the Financial Statements because all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the
underlying asset have been transferred to the Councils.

Changes in accounting policy
The department has not voluntarily adopted any changes in accounting policies during 2021-22.
Outlook
10.1 Unrecognised Commitments
Commitments include operating, capital and outsourcing arrangements arising from contractual sources and
are disclosed at their nominal value.
The department's capital commitments are predominantly for capital expenditure on construction projects
relating to the road and rail networks, and the construction and upgrade of Government buildings and facilities.
Where this construction work is being done on behalf of other agencies the cost is recovered accordingly.
The department's expenditure commitments include major service contracts for road and public transport
operations. Accommodation expenses and short term and low value leases that do not meet the definition of
a lease under AASB16 have been recognised by the department as an expenditure commitment.

10.2 Contingent Assets and Liabilities
Contingent assets and liabilities are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position but are disclosed by
way of note.
Contingent Assets
At 30 June 2022, the department:
holds contract securities which are designed to cover the risk to the department in the event of contractor
non-performance or insolvency. In the event of contractor non-performance or insolvency, the department
can call upon the contract security to cover any resulting costs incurred.
Contingent Liabilities
At 30 June 2022, the department had:
possible material exposures resulting from litigation (or pending litigation) in respect of claims for property
damage or personal injury;
received notification of other cases not yet subject to court action or formal claim, which may result in
subsequent litigation or arbitration in the future;
possible material exposure resulting from the ongoing monitoring and treatment of contaminated land
assets to bring the land into a position for future use or sale;
property acquisition compensation matters that are yet to be settled;
property agreements that provide for additional compensation payments where a property owner
purchases a replacement investment property within 12 months; and
In addition, the department is awaiting the outcome of formal and informal proceedings which may result in
possible liabilities.
The department is insured by SAicorp, the captive insurer for the Government of South Australia. Final
exposure of claims is limited to the deductable excess. The extent of these contingent liabilities cannot be
reliably measured at balance date.

10.3 Impact of standards and statements not yet effective
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not
yet effective have not been adopted by the Department for the reporting period ending 30 June 2022. The
Department has assessed the impact of these changes and they are not expected to have a material impact
in the department’s report
10.4 COVID-19 pandemic outlook for the department
From 1 July 2022 the Emergency Management Declaration was lifted following the passage of amendments
to the Public Health Act, enabling South Australia to move out of a state of emergency and return to a relative
normal.
The potential financial impacts on the department will continue to be assessed as part of usual valuation
exercises reflecting current economic market conditions.
10.5 Events after the reporting period
Events between 30 June and the date the financial statements are authorised that may have a material impact
on the results of subsequent years are set out below.
Restructuring of administrative arrangements
As a result of restructuring of administrative arrangements outlined in the Government Gazette on 30 June
2022, the Office of the Local Government will be transferred from the Attorney-General’s Department to the
Department for Infrastructure and Transport under the responsibility of the Minister for Local Government.
The notice in the Government Gazette on 30 June 2022 cited as the Public Sector (Reorganisation of Public
Sector Operations) Notice 2022 will come into operation on 1 July 2022.

Measurement and risk
11.1 Long Service Leave liability - measurement
AASB 119 Employee Benefits contains the calculation methodology for long service leave.
The actuarial assessment performed by the Department of Treasury and Finance has provided a basis for the
measurement of long service leave and is based on actuarial assumptions on expected future salary and wage
levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. These assumptions are based on employee
data over SA Government entities.
AASB 119 Employee Benefits requires the use of the yield on long-term Commonwealth Government bonds
as the discount rate in the measurement of the long service leave liability. The yield on long term
Commonwealth Government bonds has increased from 1.25% in 2021 to 3.5% in 2022.
This increase in the bond yield, which is used as the rate to discount future long service leave cash flows,
results in a decrease in the reported long service leave liability.
The net financial effect of the changes to the actuarial assumptions in the current financial year is a decrease
in the long service leave liability of $7.15 million and employee benefit expense of $0.688 million. The impact
on future periods is impracticable to estimate as the long service leave liability is calculated using a number of
demographical and financial assumptions including the long-term discount rate.
As a result of the actuarial assessment performed by the Department of Treasury and Finance, the salary
inflation rate has remained unchanged from the 2021 rate of 2.5% for long service leave liability.
The long service leave liability has been allocated between current and non-current liabilities using the leave
pattern history of previous years.

11.2 Fair Value Measurement
AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or
paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, in the principal or most
advantageous market, at the measurement date.
The department classifies fair value measurement using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the
significance of the inputs used in making the measurements, based on the data and assumptions used in the
most recent revaluation.
Level 1 traded in active markets and is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities that the entity can access at measurement date. The department does not have any
Level 1 assets.
Level 2 not traded in an active market and are derived from inputs (inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1) that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly. For example, the
department has domestic housing and commercial building assets that are valued by comparing the
subject properties to similar properties in similar areas.
Level 3 not traded in an active market and are derived from unobservable inputs. Examples in the
department include the rail and road networks.
In determining fair value, the department has taken into account the characteristic of the asset (e.g. condition
and location of the asset and any restrictions on the sale or use of the asset); and the asset’s highest and best
use (that is physically possible, legally permissible and financially feasible).
The department’s current use is the highest and best use of the asset unless other factors suggest an
alternative use is feasible. As the department did not identify any factors to suggest an alternative use, fair
value measurement was based on current use.
The carrying amount of non-financial assets with a fair value at the time of acquisition that was less than
$1.5 million or had an estimated useful life that was less than three years are deemed to approximate fair
value.
Refer to Note 5 for disclosure regarding fair value measurement techniques and inputs used to develop fair
value measurements for non-financial assets.
In accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement the fair value of non-financial assets must be estimated
for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The department categorises non-financial assets
measured at fair value into hierarchy based on the level of inputs used in measurement.
The department had no recurring or non-recurring fair value measurements categorised into Level 1.

Transfers In and Out of Level 3
The department’s policy is to recognise transfers in and out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the beginning to the reporting period.
Department for Infrastructure and Transport - Controlled
Notes to and forming part of the financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2022
11.3 Financial Instruments
Financial risk management
The department has developed a Risk Management policy and associated Framework in accordance with the
SA Government Risk Management Guide and the principles established in the Australian Standard Risk
Management Principles and Guidelines (AS/NZS ISO 31000-2018). This policy and framework set out the
tailored approach to identify and manage risk within the department.
The department’s exposure to financial risk (liquidity risk, credit risk and market risk) is low due to the nature
of the financial instruments held.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the department is unable to meet its financial obligations as they
fall due. The department works with the Department of Treasury and Finance to determine the cash flows
associated with its government approved program of work and to ensure funding is provided through SA
Government budgetary processes to meet the expected cash flows.
Refer to Notes 7.1 and 7.2 for further information.
Credit Risk
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility of the department's debtors defaulting on their contractual
obligations resulting in a financial loss to the department. The department has policies and procedures in
place to ensure business transactions occur with customers with appropriate credit history.
No collateral is held as security and no credit enhancements relate to financial assets held by the department.
Impairment of financial assets
Loss allowances for receivables are measured at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit loss using the
simplified approach in AASB 9. The department uses an allowance matrix to measure the expected credit
loss of receivables from non-government debtors.
The expected credit loss of government debtors is considered to be nil based on the external credit ratings
and nature of the counterparties.
To measure the expected credit losses, receivables are grouped based on shared risks characteristics and
the days past due. When estimating expected credit loss, the department considers reasonable and
supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both
quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the department’s historical experience and
available forward-looking information.
The maximum period considered when estimating expected credit losses is the maximum contractual
period over which the department is exposed to credit risk.
Loss rates are calculated based on the probability of a receivable progressing through stages to write off
based on the common risk characteristics of the transaction and debtor group.

Notes to and forming part of the financial statements

Loss rates are based on actual history of credit loss adjusted for any changes to any forecast economic
conditions that may affect the department’s debtor profile.
Impairment losses are presented as net impairment losses within net result, subsequent recoveries of
amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item.
Receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no
reasonable expectation of recovery include the failure of a debtor to enter into a payment plan with the
department and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of greater than 90 days past due.
Receivables with a contractual amount of $0.111 million written off during the year are still subject to
enforcement activity.
The department considers that its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on the external credit
ratings of the counterparties and therefore the expected credit loss is nil.
Market Risk
The department enters business transactions that require the payment of goods or services in a foreign
currency. Foreign currency risk associated with significant payments is minimised using a strategy of forward
cover contract through SAFA articulated in TI 23 Management of Foreign Currency Exposures.
Exposure to interest rate risk may arise through interest bearing liabilities, including borrowings.
The interest expense implicit in any finance lease payment is fixed at the inception of the lease and is
calculated using prevailing government borrowing rates as advised by SAFA. The department’s revenue base
is sufficient for the purpose of servicing its interest and loan repayment commitments.
There have been no changes in risk exposure since the last reporting date.
Categorisation of financial instruments
Details of the significant accounting policy information and methods adopted including the criteria for
recognition, the basis of measurement, and the basis on which income and expenses are recognised with
respect to each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in the respective
financial asset / liability note.
Classification of financial instruments
The department measures all financial instruments at amortised cost.

A23: Events After the Reporting Period

Department for Infrastructure and Transport under the responsibility of the Minister for Local Government,
which includes the Outback Communities Authority and Local Government Grants Commission.

Sector Operations) Notice 2022 will come into operation on 1 July 2022.

A24: Financial Instruments
A24.1 Financial Risk Management
The financial instruments/financial risk management items, conditions and accounting policies of the
department, outlined in Note 11 for controlled items, apply equally to the Administered Financial Statements.
The department’s exposure to financial risk (liquidity, credit and market) is low due to the financial instruments
held.
Liquidity risk arises where the department is unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The
department normally settles accounts within 30 days from the date the invoice is first received.
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility of the department’s debtors defaulting on their contractual
obligations resulting in financial loss to the department.
Exposure to interest rate risk will not arise on the administered interest bearing liabilities and interest bearing
assets as the interest rate is fixed over the term of the loans.

(a) Receivable and payable amounts disclosed exclude amounts relating to statutory receivables and payables. This included Commonwealth, State and Local
Government taxes and equivalents, fees and charges; Auditor-General’s audit fees. This is in addition to employee related payables, such as payroll tax, Fringe
Benefits Tax, Pay as You Go Withholding and Return TO Work SA levies. In government, certain rights to receive or pay cash may not be contractual and
therefore in these situations, the disclosure requirements of AASB 7 will not apply. The standard defines contract as enforceable by law. All amounts recorded
are carried at cost.
