94 Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (12 August 2014). (First Session) In reference to 2014-15 Budget Paper 4, Volume 1, page 98, Program 2: Disability South Australia—Why has expenditure for supplies and services increased by $7.747 million between the 2013-14 budgeted amount of $132.9 million and the 2014-15 budgeted amount of $140.7 million?

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): I have been advised:

The increase in budgeted expenditure for supplies and services between the 2013-14 budget and 2014-15 budget is primarily in brokerage payments to non-government organisations and individualised funding, where the state government has had to provide additional support to meet ongoing growth in demand and the increased costs of disability services.
