Introduction
The 2006-07 Supplementary Estimates – November are prepared in accordance with The Financial Administration Act, 1993. They are requests for additional funding from the General Revenue Fund (GRF) that were not included in the main Estimates presented with the Government’s 2006-07 Budget.
The funding requests reflect the additional commitments that the government has or will undertake during the fiscal year. The requested funding is the net amount required by a department after reallocating voted appropriations not required in other areas of the department.
The Supplementary Estimates – November contain revised financial statements and schedules similar in format to those included in the main Estimates and incorporate estimated changes in revenue, expense and loan disbursements.
The detail section of the Supplementary Estimates – November follows the same Vote (department), subvote (major program area) and allocation (component of a subvote) as the main Estimates. The department’s mandate and subvote description provided in the main Estimates apply to the Supplementary Estimates – November. Subvote descriptions may be expanded by the explanation for the additional funding provided by the Supplementary Estimates.
Subvote descriptions for new subvotes are incorporated into the explanation for the additional funding.
The Supplementary Estimates – November contain a Vote for SaskEnergy Incorporated that was not included in the main Estimates. The Vote is necessary to provide funding to SaskEnergy for a natural gas pipeline to the La Ronge and Weyakwin communities.
The Supplementary Estimates – November also contain a new Vote (statutory) for the Saskatchewan Infrastructure Fund. This vote is necessary to permit the GRF to transfer funds to the Saskatchewan Infrastructure Fund (SIF) to be used for infrastructure projects.
To improve transparency, the new SIF and the Fiscal Stabilization Fund, will be cash funded. The cash will be invested in short and medium term marketable securities, however, the investment income will be recorded as revenue of the GRF. The investments will be liquidated and fund balances drawn down when the funds transfer money back to the GRF to be used in accordance with the purposes of each fund.
The Principles and Concepts, Accounting Policies and Glossary of Terms outlined in the main Estimates apply to the Supplementary Estimates – November.

Amortization
Capital assets require an appropriation in the fiscal year they are acquired. These assets are not expensed upon acquisition. Under accrual accounting, capital assets are charged as an expense over their useful service life as they are consumed. The consumption of capital assets is referred to as amortization and does not require an appropriation. Loss on disposition of assets is also treated as amortization.
