Central Coast Local Health District
Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Central Coast Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Central Coast Local Health District
(the District), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows, and the
service group statements for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated
entity comprises the District and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the
financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
• are in accordance with section 45E of Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and the
Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015.
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. My responsibilities under the
standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’ section
of my report.
I am independent of the District and the consolidated entity in accordance with the requirements of the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have also fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament further promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of New
South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor–
General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit
opinion.
Emphasis of Matter – Presentation of Budget Information
Without modification to the opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting adjusted
budget information detailed in Note 1(ad). The note states that AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ is not
applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ to
present original budget information, the District’s financial statements present adjusted budget
information.
The Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act, and for such internal control as the
Chief Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and the
consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will be dissolved by an Act of
Parliament or otherwise cease. The assessment must, disclose, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take based on the financial
statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing and
The accompanying notes form part of these financial statements.

As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises the parent and special purpose service entity. In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements consisting of the controlling and controlled entities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions and other events are accounted for using uniform accounting policies.
CCLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is also controlled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. The reporting entity is a not-for-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the Chief Executive on 30 August 2017.
Basis of Preparation
The District's financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with applicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act 1997 and its regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015 (the Act), and the financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act. The financial statements comply with the NSW Treasury mandates circular for NSW General Government Sector Entities. Further information on the adjusted budget figures can be found at Note 1(ad).
The financial statements of the District have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Secretary of Health, the Chair of the Central Coast Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreement have agreed to service and funding levels for the forward financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for public health services under the District's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the District fails to meet Service Agreement performance standards, the Ministry of Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including financial support and increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:
The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. It also encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 14 and 21), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses by the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent entity.
The Central Coast Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the District on 1 January 2011 in accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable the District to exercise its functions.
The District, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:
The Reporting Entity
The Central Coast Local Health District (the District) was established under the provisions of the Health Services Act 1997 with effect from 1 January2011.
Central Coast Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
The District has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.
The District has developed an Efficiency and Improvement Plan (EIP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies. Benefits from the EIP are retained by the District and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the Ministry throughout the financial year.
Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for saleare measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specifiedotherwise.
Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.

Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have been recognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers’ compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.
Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at the undiscounted amounts of the benefits.
Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although short-cut methods are permitted).
Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confirmed that using the nominal annual leave balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual leave liability. On-costs of 17.2% are applied to the value of leave payable at 30 June 2017 (comparable on-costs for 30 June 2016 were 16.7%).The District has assessed the actuarial advice based on the District’s circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is immaterial to annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater than the benefits accrued in the future.
The District's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and State Superannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity, which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
The District accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetary revenue item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.
Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by the District as shown in Note 23.
Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of certain factors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using current rates of pay. These factors were determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.
The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer’s Directions. The expense for certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For other superannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as a multiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
The financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting Interpretations.
The District's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities.The expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience.The TMF is managed by Insurance and Care NSW(iCare), a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.

Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to not-for-profit NSWgeneral government sector entities.
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge for the use of hospital facilities at rates determined by the NSWMinistry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
Finance Costs
Income Recognition
Sale of Goods
Rendering of Services
Investment Revenue
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those personshospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. The District recognises the revenue on an accruals basis fromthe time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.
Debt Forgiveness
Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policiesfor the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when the District transfers the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue isrecognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicareand reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement providesfor the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admittedpatients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
Patient Fees
Department of Veterans' Affairs
An agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of healthservices to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by the District on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions. Nonadmitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.
Highly Specialised Drugs
a monthly charge raised by the District based on a percentage of receipts generated.
the residual of the Private Practice Trust Fund at the end of each financial year, such sum being credited for the District use in the advancement of the District or individuals within it.
Use of Hospital Facilities

Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when the District obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control overcontributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing andfinancing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.
The District uses a number of facilities owned and maintained by the local authorities in the area to deliver community health services for which nocharges are raised by the authorities.
Capitalisation Thresholds
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for the District as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly for salaryagreements and approved enhancement projects.
This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned inreturn for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
General operating expenses/revenues of CCLHD have only been included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income prepared to the extent of thecash payments made to the Health Organisations concerned. The District is not deemed to own or control the various assets/liabilities of theaforementioned Health Organisations and such amounts have been excluded from the Statement of Financial Position. Any exceptions arespecifically listed in the notes that follow.
amount of GST incurred by the District as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an asset's cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
Where material, the cost method of accounting is used for the initial recording of all such services. Cost is determined as the fair value of the servicesgiven and is then recognised as revenue with a matching expense.

Grants and Contributions
Interstate Patient Flows
Land and buildings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which areoperated/occupied by the District are deemed to be controlled by the District and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given toacquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised inaccordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date.
Where payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the deferred payment amount iseffectively discounted over the period of credit.
Interstate patient flows are funded through the State Pool, based on activity and consistent with the price determined in the service level agreement.The funding is recognised as recurrent allocation received from the immediate parent.
Individual items of Property, Plant & Equipment are capitalised where their cost is $10,000 or above.

n) Revaluation of Non-Current Assets
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.
For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of thoseassets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation incrementsor decrements.
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrementin respect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the netresult.
Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists inthe revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
As a not-for-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-current assets, but not otherwise.
Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset istransferred to accumulated funds.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Current Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment andAASB 140 Investment Property.
- Electro Medical Equipment
Investment property is separately discussed at Note 1(q).
Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible andfinancially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the assetbeing measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. In most cases, after taking into account these considerations, thehighest and best use is the existing use. In limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are norestrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants’ perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, costapproach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 19 and Note 20 for furtherinformation regarding fair value.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported.
* Costing less than $200,000
* Costing more than or equal to $200,000
- Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings
Infrastructure Systems
“Infrastructure Systems” means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of theeconomy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
- Computer Equipment
Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. The entity has assessedthat any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
- Motor Vehicle Sedans
- Motor Vehicles, Trucks & Vans
- Office Equipment
- Plant and Machinery
Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumedover its useful life to the District. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their useful lives.

p) Restoration Costs
q) Investment Properties
r) Maintenance
s) Leased Assets
t) Inventories
u) Loans and Receivables
As a not-for-profit entity with no cash generating units, impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant andequipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where thecosts of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for not-for-profit entities given that AASB 136 modifies the recoverable amount testfor non-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, wheredepreciated replacement cost is also fair value.
Inventories held for distribution are measured at cost, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Inventories (other than those held fordistribution) are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental toownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.
Where a non-current asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair valueor, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the sameamount. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Day-to-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or componentof an asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as aliability.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financialassets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance forany impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
The District does not have any property that meets the definition of Investment Property.
Investment property is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. However, for not-for-profit entities, property held to meet service deliveryobjectives rather than to earn rental or for capital appreciation does not meet the definition of investment property and is accounted for under AASB116, Property, Plant and Equipment.
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.

w) Impairment of Financial Assets
The movement in the fair value of the T Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised movements in fair value and is reported in the line item ‘investment revenue’.
Held-to-maturity investments – Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the District has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held-to-maturity'.
These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are recognised in the net result for the year when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
The risk management strategy of the District has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of the Public Authorities (Financial Arrangements) Act.
T Corp Hour-Glass investments are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing secure investments.
The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close ofbusiness on the Statement of Financial Position date.
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impairment. An allowance forimpairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the presentvalue of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for theyear.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result forthe year, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less anyimpairment loss previously recognised in the net result for the year.
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation arerecognised on the trade date; i.e. the date the District commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. The Districtdetermines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial yearend.
T-Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. Information about these assets is provided internally to the District's key management personnel.
The District subsequently measures investments classified as 'held for trading' or designated upon initial recognition “at fair value through profit or loss” at fair value.
Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairmentlosses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as “available for sale”, must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses of financial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there notbeen an impairment loss.
Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments and measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed or impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for the year. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.

aa) Equity Transfers
Where the District has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transferred control, the asset is recognised to theextent of the District's continuing involvement in the asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the District.
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative restructure, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof betweenentities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,Contributions and Australian Accounting Interpretation 1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
The District recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Refer to Note 20 and Note 33 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets.
Borrowings include finance lease liabilities. The finance lease liability is determined in accordance with AASB 117, Leases.
A number of the District’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets andliabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use ofunobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, the District categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based onthe inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
where the District has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if the District has not retained control.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if the District transfers the financialasset:
where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the District and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.
Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables with no stated interest rate are measured atthe original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by thetransferor because there is no active market, the District recognises the asset at the transferor's carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibitedfrom recognising internally generated intangibles, the District does not recognise that asset.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount atwhich the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fairvalue.

(iii)
ac) Trust Funds
ad) Adjusted Budgeted Amounts
As the District performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of the District'sown objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statements.
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). TheDistrict's budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the District's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjustedbudgeted amounts are drawn from the initial Service Agreements between the District and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of the financialyear, as well as any adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budget at yearend (i.e. adjusted budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financial statements aredenoted as "Unaudited".
Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note32.
Accumulated FundsThe category "accumulated funds" includes all current and prior period retained funds.
Revaluation SurplusThe revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with the District's policy on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment as discussed in Note 1(n).
Separate Reserves
Separate reserve accounts are recognised in the financial statements only if such accounts are required by specific legislation or Australian Accounting Standards.
The District receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 26.
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Central Coast Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
ae) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards
(i)
(ii)
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and associated amending standards AASB 2014-5, AASB 2015-8, AASB 2016-3, AASB 2016-7 and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 for not-for-profit entities. AASB 15 establishes a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers. This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at the transaction price. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction.
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities extends the scope of AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to include application by not-for-profit public sector entities. The application of this standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management Personnel compensation.
AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities is applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. The Entity early adopted this standard in the financial year ended 30 June 2016, which allows for exemption from making certain Level 3 'Fair Value Measurement' disclosures held primarily for current service potential rather than the generation of future net cash inflows.
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 are applicable for reporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. AASB 9 also introduces a forward-looking 'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.
AASB 16 Leases applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard introduces a new approach to lease accounting that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases. The application of this standard will likely have a significant transitional impact as all leases, except short term (<12 months) and low value leases, brought on balance sheet.
AASB 1058 Income of Not-for-Profit Entities applies to not-for-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less than the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be impacted depending on whether there is a liability or other performance obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.
AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with current practice under AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless NSW Treasury determines otherwise. The following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been applied and are not yet effective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:
Issued but not yet effective
Effective for the first time in 2016-17
The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised Australian Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:

b) Valuation Techniques, Inputs and Processes
The non-current assets categorised in a) above have been measured as either level 2 or level 3 based on the following valuation techniques and inputs:
For land, buildings and infrastructure systems the District obtains external valuations by independent valuers at least every three years. The last revaluation was performed by Liquid Pacific Holdings Pty Ltd for the 2016/17 financial year. Liquid Pacific Holdings Pty Ltd is an independent entity and is not an associated entity of the District.
At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to whether any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 19 reconcilation.

20. Fair Value Measurement of Non-Financial Assets
Central Coast Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
For buildings and infrastructure, many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method is depreciated replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs. However, residential properties are valued on a market approach and included in level 2.
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most significant input is price per square metre.
All commercial and non-restricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands are not identical.
All of the restricted land has been classified as level 3 as, although observable inputs have been used, a significant level of professional judgement is required to adjust inputs in determining the land valuations. Certain parcels of land have zoning restrictions, for example hospital grounds, and values are adjusted accordingly.

Total Cash Flow is $5.4 million favourable to budget as at 30 June 2017.
This position is a result of increased cash earned and held by the Special Purpose funds over budget at 30 June 2016 as well as increased cash receipts from the Treasury Managed Fund hindsight received.
Movements in the level of the NSW Ministry of Health Recurrent Allocation that have occurred since the time of the initial allocation on 25 July 2016 are as follows:
The actual Net Result was higher than adjusted budget by $2 million, primarily due to:
Assets are favourable to budget by $9M primarily driven by the increase in Property, Plant & Equipment values due to the Land & Building Revaluation actioned during the year.
Liabilities are favourable to budget by $3M primarily from a decrease in Creditors of $6M over the year, offset by an increase in Provisions of $4M driven by an increase in staff numbers over the year as well as the recognition of the 2.5% award increase and actuarial adjustment.
A $3M favourability in the result of Special Purpose funds from the Rights of Private Practice revenue received offset by small unfavourabilities in Loss on Disposals of $0.3M, driven by disposals as part of the Gosford Hospital Redevelopment, as well as a $0.5M unfavourable position on the District's Capital Subsidy resulting from the District not needing to draw down all the funds allocated for Capital programs.

The District's principal financial instruments are outlined below. These financial instruments arise directly from the District's operations or are required to finance its operations. The District does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
The District's main risks arising from financial instruments are outlined below, together with the District's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk. Further quantitative and qualitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.
The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the District, to set risk limits and controls and to monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed on a continuous basis.

(b) Credit Risk
Cash
Receivables - trade debtors
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the District. The maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk associated with the District's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment of minimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
The TCorp Hour-Glass cash facility is discussed in paragraph (d) below.
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover outstanding amounts, including letters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised when there is objective evidence that the District will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and current and expected changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.
Credit risk arises from financial assets of the District, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by the District. The District has not granted any financial guarantees.
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. Interest is earned on daily bank balances at rates of approximately 2.37% in 2016/17 compared to 2.81% in the previous year.
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either 'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of the Statement of Financial Position. Patient Fees Ineligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.
In addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes to settle legal claims. Most of the District's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatient treatments.
The District is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors that are not past due (2017: $5.768M ; 2016: $12.349M) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $602M ; 2016: $495M) are not considered impaired.

2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures and excludes receivables that are not past due and not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of financial position.
The District has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.
During the current and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
The District has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These deposits are similar to money market or bank deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed for the term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest rate of -28.00% (2016: -1.93%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 8.16% (2016: 0.96%) on a weighted average balance during the year of $7.1M (2016: $6.7M). None of these assets are past due or impaired.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the District will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. The District continuously manages risk through monitoring future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid assets and liabilities.
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.
The District has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual service agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the District fails to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to suppliers (which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular 11/12. For small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered invoice. For other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an invoice or a statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing contract specifies otherwise.

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The District's exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on the District's borrowings and other price risks associated with the movement in the unit price of the Hour-Glass Investment facilities. The District has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.
Central Coast Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
However, the District is not permitted to borrow external to the NSW Ministry of Health (except energy loans which are negotiated through NSW Treasury).
The District's exposure to interest rate risk is set out below.
Carrying Amount
The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and other price risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which the District operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through the District's interest bearing liabilities.
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. The District does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financial instruments, a change of interest rates would not affect net result or equity.
A reasonably possible change of +/-1% is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last five years). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.

Exposure to 'other price risk' primarily arises through the investment in the NSW TCorp Hour-Glass Investment Facilities, which are held for strategic rather thantrading purposes. The District has no direct equity investments. The District holds units in the following Hour-Glass investment trusts:
Long-term growth facility
NSW TCorp as trustee for each of the above facilities is required to act in the best interest of the unit holders and to administer the trusts in accordance with the trust deeds. As trustee, NSW TCorp has appointed external managers to manage the performance and risk of each facility in accordance with a mandate agreed by the parties. NSW TCorp has also leveraged off internal expertise to manage certain fixed income assets for the Hour-Glass facilities. A significant portion of the administration of the facilities is outsourced to an external custodian
NSW TCorp provides sensitivity analysis information for each of the Investment facilities, using historically based volatility information collected over a ten year period, quoted at two standard deviations (ie 95% probability). NSW TCorp Hour-Glass Investment facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss and therefore any change in unit price impacts directly on profit (rather than equity).
As discussed, the value of the Hour-Glass Investments is based on the District's share of the value of the underlying assets of the facility, based on the market value. All of the Hour-Glass facilities are valued using 'redemption' pricing.
(The table above only includes financial assets as no financial liabilities were measured at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position.)
There were no transfers between level 1 and 2 during the period ended 30 June 2017.
Financial instruments are generally recognised at cost, with the exception of the NSW TCorp Hour-Glass facilities, which are measured at fair value.
The amortised cost of financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position approximates the fair value, because of the short term nature of many of the financial instruments.
Therefore the fair value of the financial instruments do not differ from the carrying amount.
7 years and over
The unit price of each facility is equal to the total fair value of net assets held by the facility divided by the total number of units on issue for that facility. Unit prices are calculated and published daily.
A reasonably possible change is based on the percentage change in unit price (as advised by NSW TCorp) multiplied by the redemption value as at 30 June each year for each facility (balance from Hour-Glass Statement).
Investment in the Hour-Glass facilities limits the District's exposure to risk, as it allows diversification across a pool of funds with different investment horizons and a mix of investments.

Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
(the District), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year
then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the District and
the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
• are in accordance with section 45E of Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and the
Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015.
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. My responsibilities under the
standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’ section
of my report.
I am independent of the District and the consolidated entity in accordance with the requirements of the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have also fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament further promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of New
South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor–
General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit
opinion.
2
Emphasis of Matter – Presentation of Budget Information
Without modification to the opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting adjusted
budget information detailed in Note 1(ae). The note states that AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ is not
applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ to
present original budget information, the District’s financial statements present adjusted budget
information.
The Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act, and for such internal control as the
Chief Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and the
consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will be dissolved by an Act of
Parliament or otherwise cease. The assessment must, disclose, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements. Misstatements
can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take based on the financial
statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing and
The accompanying notes form part of these financial statements.

ISLHD has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.
ISLHD has developed an Efficiency and Improvement Plan (EIP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies. Benefits from
the EIP are retained by ISLHD and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the Ministry throughout the
financial year.
Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for sale
are measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specified
otherwise.
Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.
The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. It also
encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 15 and 25), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses by
the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent entity.
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the ISLHD on 1 January 2011 in
accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable ISLHD to exercise its functions.
ISLHD, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:
The Reporting Entity
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District (ISLHD) was established under the provisions of the Health Services Act 1997 with effect from 1 January
2011.
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Basis of Preparation
ISLHD's financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with
applicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act 1997 and
its regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983
and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015 (the Act), and the Financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act. The financial
statements comply with the NSW Treasury mandates circular for NSW General Government Sector Entities. Further information on the adjusted
budget figures can be found at Note 1(ae).
As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises the
parent and special purpose service entity. In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements consisting of the controlling and controlled
entities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions and other events are accounted for using uniform
accounting policies.
ISLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is also
controlled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. The
reporting entity is a not-for-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the Chief Executive on 7 September 2017.
The financial statements of ISLHD have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Secretary of Health, the Chair of Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreement have
agreed to service and funding levels for the forward financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for public health
services under ISLHD's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management to control its financial
liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where ISLHD fails to meet Service Agreement performance standards, the
Ministry of Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including financial support and
increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:

Other provisions exist when ISLHD has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Employee Benefits and Other Provisions
Insurance
Finance Costs
Salaries & Wages, Annual Leave, Sick Leave and On-Costs
Comparative Information
Except when an Australian Accounting Standard permits or requires otherwise, comparative information is disclosed in respect of the previous period
for all amounts reported in the financial statements.
Statement of Compliance
The financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting Interpretations.
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to not-for-profit NSW
general government sector entities.
ISLHD's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities. The
expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience.The TMF is managed by Insurance and Care NSW (iCare), a
controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
Long Service Leave and Superannuation
Consequential On-Costs
Other Provisions
Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of
the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at the undiscounted amounts of the benefits.
Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees
render the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although
short-cut methods are permitted).
Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury , a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confirmed that using the nominal annual leave
balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual leave
liability. On-costs of 17.2% are applied to the value of leave payable at 30 June 2017 (comparable on-costs for 30 June 2016 were 16.7%).
ISLHD has assessed the actuarial advice based on the ISLHD’s circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is immaterial to
annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater
than the benefits accrued in the future.
ISLHD's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and State
Superannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity , which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
ISLHD accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetary revenue
item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.
Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by ISLHD as shown in Note 27.
Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of certain
factors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using current rates of pay. These factors
were determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.
The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer’s Directions. The expense for
certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For other
superannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as a
multiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have been
recognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers’ compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.

ISLHD or individuals within it.
Use of Hospital Facilities
Where material, the cost method of accounting is used for the initial recording of all such services. Cost is determined as the fair value of the services
given and is then recognised as revenue with a matching expense.
Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policies
for the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when ISLHD transfers the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue is
recognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicare
and reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement provides
for the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admitted
patients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
Patient Fees
Department of Veterans' Affairs
An agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of health
services to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by ISLHD on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions. Non-
admitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge for the use of hospital facilities at rates determined by the NSW
Ministry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
ISLHD uses a number of facilities owned and maintained by the local authorities in the area to deliver community health services for which no charges
are raised by the authorities.
Income Recognition
Sale of Goods
Rendering of Services
Investment Revenue
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those persons
hospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. ISLHD recognises the revenue on an accruals basis from the
time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.
Debt Forgiveness
Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when ISLHD obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control over
contributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.

Individual items of Property, Plant & Equipment and Intangibles are capitalised where their cost is $10,000 or above.
Interstate Patient Flows
Land and buildings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which are
operated/occupied by ISLHD are deemed to be controlled by ISLHD and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given to
acquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised in
accordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date.
Where payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the deferred payment amount is effectively
discounted over the period of credit.
Interstate patient flows are funded through the State Pool, based on activity and consistent with the price determined in the service level agreement.
The funding is recognised as recurrent allocation received from the immediate parent.
Refer to Note 1(ab) for assets transferred as a result of equity transfer.
Most assets are acquired through Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the immediate parent.
amount of GST incurred by ISLHD as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an asset's
cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
NSW Ministry of Health Allocations
Accounting for the Goods & Services Tax (GST)
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for ISLHD as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly for salary
agreements and approved enhancement projects.
This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned in
return for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
Capitalisation Thresholds
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing and
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.

Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumed
over its useful life to ISLHD. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their useful lives.
- Linen
To ensure that the carrying amount for each asset does not differ materially from its fair value at reporting date, indices are sourced. The indices reflect
an assessment of movements made in the period between revaluations.
Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. The entity has assessed
that any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Current Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper
(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and AASB
140 Investment Property.
- Electro Medical Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible and
financially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the asset
being measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. In most cases, after taking into account these considerations, the
highest and best use is the existing use. In limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are no
restrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants’ perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, cost
approach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 19 and Note 24 for further
information regarding fair value.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported. Depreciation
rates have not changed from the previous year.
* Costing less than $200,000
* Costing more than or equal to $200,000
- Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings
Infrastructure Systems
“Infrastructure Systems” means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of the
economy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
- Computer Equipment
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.
For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of those
assets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation increments
or decrements.

o) Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment
p) Restoration Costs
q) Non-Current Assets (or disposal groups) Held for Sale
r) Intangible Assets
s) Maintenance
Where an asset is acquired at no or nominal cost, the cost is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. All research costs are expensed. Development
costs are only capitalised when certain criteria are met.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite.
ISLHD recognises intangible assets only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to ISLHD and the cost of the asset can be measured
reliably. Intangible assets are measured initially at cost.
ISLHD at times has certain non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale, where their carrying amount will be recovered principally
through a sale transaction, not through continuing use.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are recognised at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. These assets
are not depreciated while they are classified as held for sale.
Computer software developed or acquired by ISLHD are recognised as intangible assets and are amortised over four years using the straight line
method based on the useful life of the asset for both internally developed assets and direct acquisitions. Most computer software is acquired through
the Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the parent.
As a not-for-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-current assets, but not otherwise.
Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset is transferred
to accumulated funds.
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as a
liability.
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrement in
respect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the net
result.
Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists in
the revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
Day-to-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or component of
an asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.
Intangible assets are subsequently measured at fair value only if there is an active market. As there is no active market for ISLHD's intangible assets,
the assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount the
carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount and the reduction is recognised as an impairment loss.
As a not-for-profit entity with no cash generating units, impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant and
equipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where the
costs of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for not-for-profit entities given that AASB 136 modifies the recoverable amount test
for non-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, where
depreciated replacement cost is also fair value.

T-Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The
facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair
value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. Information about these assets is provided internally to ISLHD's key
management personnel.
ISLHD subsequently measures investments classified as 'held for trading' or designated upon initial recognition “at fair value through profit or
loss” at fair value.
Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified
as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.
Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments and
measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed or
impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for the
year. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financial
assets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for any
impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. ISLHD
determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial year end.
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation are
recognised on the trade date; i.e. the date ISLHD commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The movement in the fair value of the T Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised
movements in fair value and is reported in the line item ‘investment revenue’.
Held-to-maturity investments – Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that ISLHD has the positive
intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held-to-maturity'.
These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are recognised in the net result for the year
when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
The risk management strategy of ISLHD has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of the Public
Authorities (Financial Arrangements) Act.
T Corp Hour-Glass investments are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing
secure investments.
The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close of
business on the Statement of Financial Position date.
Inventories held for distribution are measured at cost, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Inventories (other than those held for
distribution) are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to
ownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.
Where a non-current asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair value or,
if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the same amount.
Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to ISLHD and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.
Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables with no stated interest rate are measured at the
original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
where ISLHD has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if ISLHD has not retained control.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if ISLHD transfers the financial asset:
where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairment
losses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as “available for sale”, must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses of
financial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there not
been an impairment loss.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to ISLHD.
ISLHD recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Refer to Note 24 and Note 36 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets.
A number of ISLHD’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and
liabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, ISLHD categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based on the
inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
Where ISLHD has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transferred control, the asset is recognised to the extent of
ISLHD's continuing involvement in the asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impairment. An allowance for
impairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value
of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for the year.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result for the
year, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment
loss previously recognised in the net result for the year.

ab) Equity Transfers
ac) Equity and Reserves
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
ad) Trust Funds
ae) Adjusted Budgeted Amounts
af) Emerging Asset
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by the
transferor because there is no active market, ISLHD recognises the asset at the transferor's carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibited from
recognising internally generated intangibles, ISLHD does not recognise that asset.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount at
which the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fair
value.
Accumulated Funds
The category "accumulated funds" includes all current and prior period retained funds.
Revaluation Surplus
The revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with ISLHD's policy
on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment as discussed in Note 1(n).
Separate Reserves
Separate reserve accounts are recognised in the financial statements only if such accounts are required by specific legislation or Australian
Accounting Standards.
ISLHD receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 29.
ISLHD's emerging interest in the Grand Pacific Health Centre at 107 Scenic Drive, Nowra has been valued in accordance with the Ministry of Health's
policy for Accounting for Privately Financed Projects. This policy required ISLHD to initially determine the estimated written down replacement cost by
reference to the project's historical cost escalated by a construction index and the asset's estimated working life. The estimated written down
replacement cost was then allocated on a systematic basis over the concession period of 30 years using the annuity method and the Government Bond
rate of 2.98% at commencement of the concession period.
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative restructure, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof between
entities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,
Contributions and Australian Accounting Interpretation 1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
As ISLHD performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of ISLHD's own
objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statements.
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). ISLHD's
budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary
Reporting’ to present original budget information, ISLHD's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjusted budgeted amounts are
drawn from the initial Service Agreements between ISLHD and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of the financial year, as well as any
adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budget at year end (i.e. adjusted
budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financial statements are denoted as
"Unaudited".
Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note 35.

ag) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards
(i)
(ii)
NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless NSW Treasury determines otherwise.
The following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been
applied and are not yet effective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:
Issued but not yet effective
Effective for the first time in 2016-17
The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised Australian
Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:
AASB 16 Leases applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard introduces a new approach to lease accounting
that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases. The application of this standard will likely
have a significant transitional impact as all leases, except short term (<12 months) and low value leases, will be brought on balance sheet.
AASB 1058 Income of Not-for-Profit Entities applies to not-for-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less than
the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be impacted
depending on whether there is a liability or other performance obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.
AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be
measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with current practice under
AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and associated amending standards AASB 2014-5, AASB 2015-8, AASB 2016-3, AASB
2016-7 and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018 for not-for-profit entities. AASB 15 establishes a
contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers.
This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at the transaction
price. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction.
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities
extends the scope of AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to include application by not-for-profit public sector entities. The application of this
standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management Personnel
compensation.
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 applies to annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding
financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 are applicable for
reporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and
establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. AASB 9 also introduces a
forward-looking 'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.

b) Valuation Techniques, Inputs and Processes
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale (Note 23)
For land, buildings and infrastructure systems the ISLHD obtains external valuations by independent valuers at least every three years. The last
revaluation was performed by Savills Valuation Pty Ltd for the 2014/15 financial year. Savills Valuation Pty Ltd is an independent entity and is not an
associated entity of ISLHD.
At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to whether
any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 20 reconcilation.
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Fair value measurements recognised in the Statement of Financial Position are categorised into the following levels.
The non-current assets categorised in a) above have been measured as either level 2 or level 3 based on the following valuation techniques and
inputs:

24. Fair Value Measurement of Non-Financial Assets
Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale is a non-recurring item that is measured at fair value less cost to sell, which is less than its carrying amount. These
assets are categorised as level 2.
For buildings and infrastructure, many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method is depreciated
replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs. However, residential properties
are valued on a market approach and included in level 2.
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most
significant input is price per square metre.
All commercial and non-restricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands are
not identical.
The majority of the restricted land has been classified as level 3 as, although observable inputs have been used, a significant level of professional
judgement is required to adjust inputs in determining the land valuations. Certain parcels of land have zoning restrictions, for example hospital
grounds, and values are adjusted accordingly.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Movements in the level of the NSW Ministry of Health Recurrent Allocation that have occurred since the time of the initial allocation on 30 June 2016 are
as follows:
The actual Net Result was lower than adjusted budget by $2.2 million, primarily due to:
Employee Related expenses (including use of Visiting Medical Officers) as a result of higher activity and District investment in specific clinical safety
initiatives. Non-cash impact of annual leave expense for additional staff and take-up of increase in leave provisions for Award increases due in July 2017
were also significant contributors. Patient Fee revenue target was not achieved due to lower than required take-up rate of private insurance usage.
Other Revenue sources were favourable, mainly due to TMF Hindsight favourable return and various Industry and Community donations. The District
also received $7.3m in Subsidy above budgeted amount. Since 2011, the District has operated at Performance Level '0'. This level requires minimal
Ministry intervention and is the highest rating in the Ministry of Health performance matrix for Local Health Districts.

Initial Allocation, 30 June 2016
Cash and Cash Equivalents were $3.6m higher than budgeted mostly due to timing difference in ATO processing payments and settlement of Intra
Health transactions. Total Liabilities are $9.3m higher due to clearing ATO timing difference, increase in employee provisions and settlement of Intra
Health creditors.
Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities was influenced by higher than budgeted employee related expenses but was more than off-set by higher cash
from revenue. Net cashflows from Investing Activities recorded an outflow of $25.5m reflecting a period of investment in property and equipment. This
resulted in an overall Net Cash increase of $7.3m for the year.

Loans and receivables (at amortised cost)
**Excludes statutory payables and unearned revenue (i.e. not within scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures).
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to ISLHD. The
maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk associated with ISLHD's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment of
minimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
The TCorp Hour-Glass cash facility is discussed in paragraph (d) below.
Credit risk arises from financial assets of ISLHD, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by ISLHD. ISLHD has not
granted any financial guarantees.
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. Interest is earned on daily bank balances at rates
of approximately 2.35% in 2016/17 compared to 2.81% in the previous year.

ISLHD's principal financial instruments are outlined below. These financial instruments arise directly from ISLHD's operations or are required to finance its
operations. ISLHD does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
ISLHD's main risks arising from financial instruments are outlined below, together with ISLHD's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and
managing risk. Further quantitative and qualitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.
The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing
each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by ISLHD, to set risk limits and controls and to
monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed on a regular basis.

Notes
1 Each column in the table reports "gross receivables".
Authority Deposits
In addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes to
settle legal claims. Most of ISLHD's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatient treatments.
ISLHD is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors that are
not past due (2017: $7.269M ; 2016: $8.832M) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $725K ; 2016: $623K) are not considered impaired.
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either 'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of the
Statement of Financial Position. Patient Fees Ineligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.
2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures and excludes
receivables that are not past due and not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of financial
position.
ISLHD has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These deposits are similar to money market or bank
deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed for the
term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest rate of
0.2% (2016: 0.16%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 2.37% (2016: 2.96%) on a weighted average balance during the year of
$22.162m (2016: $21.626m). None of these assets are past due or impaired.
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as
established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover
outstanding amounts, including letters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised when
there is objective evidence that ISLHD will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and current and expected
changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
(c) Liquidity Risk
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with
creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.
ISLHD has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual service
agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where ISLHD fails
to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework
requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to suppliers
(which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular 11/12. For
small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered invoice. For
other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an invoice or a
statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing
contract specifies otherwise.
ISLHD has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.
During the current and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
Liquidity risk is the risk that ISLHD will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. ISLHD continuously manages risk through monitoring
future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance between
continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid assets and liabilities.

The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and other
price risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which ISLHD operates
and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in existence
at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis was performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain
constant.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through ISLHD's interest bearing liabilities.
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. ISLHD
does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financial instruments,
a change of interest rates would not affect net result or equity.
A reasonably possible change of +/-1% is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last five
years). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.
+1%-1%
*Accrued Salaries Wages, On-Costs and Payroll Deductions have been excluded from payables as not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments
Disclosures. Prior year comparatives have been restated as a result.
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. ISLHD's exposures
to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on ISLHD's borrowings and other price risks associated with the movement in the unit price of the Hour-
Glass Investment facilities. ISLHD has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.

However, ISLHD is not permitted to borrow external to the NSW Ministry of Health (except energy loans which are negotiated through NSW Treasury).
ISLHD's exposure to interest rate risk is set out below.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
(e) Fair Value Measurement
(i) Fair value compared to carrying amount
(ii) Fair Value recognised in the Statement of Financial Position
As discussed, the value of the Hour-Glass Investments is based on ISLHD's share of the value of the underlying assets of the facility, based on the market
value. All of the Hour-Glass facilities are valued using 'redemption' pricing.
(The table above only includes financial assets as no financial liabilities were measured at fair value in the Statement of Financial Position.)
There were no transfers between level 1 and 2 during the period ended 30 June 2017.
Financial instruments are generally recognised at cost, with the exception of the NSW TCorp Hour-Glass facilities, which are measured at fair value.
The amortised cost of financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position approximates the fair value, because of the short term nature
of many of the financial instruments.
Therefore the fair value of the financial instruments do not differ from the carrying amount.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Nepean Blue Mountains Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion

information of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the District
and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended inaccordance with Australian Accounting Standards
• are in accordance with section 45E of Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and the
Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015.
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion

standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’
section of my report.
I am independent of the District and the consolidated entity in accordance with the requirements of
the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics forProfessional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have also fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament further promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of
New South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor–General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my
audit opinion.
2
Emphasis of Matter
Without modification to the audit opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting
adjusted budget information detailed in Note 1(af). The note states that AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary
Reporting’ is not applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055
‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the District’s financial statements present
adjusted budget information.
The Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act, and for such internal control
as the Chef Executive determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and
the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will be dissolved by an
Act of Parliament or otherwise cease. The assessment must, disclose, as applicable, matters related
to going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or
in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take
based on the financial statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing
and Assurance Standards Board website at:
http://www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar3.pdf. The description forms part of my auditor’s
report.
My opinion does not provide assurance:
• that the District or the consolidated entity carried out their activities effectively, efficiently andeconomically
• about the assumptions used in formulating the budget figures disclosed in the financialstatements
• about the security and controls over the electronic publication of the audited financialstatements on any website where they may be presented
• about any other information which may have been hyperlinked to/from the financial statements.

Northern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe yearended 30 June 2017
l. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) The Reporting Entity
The Northern Sydney Local Health District (the NSLHD) was established under the provisions of the Health Services Act 1997 with effect from 1
January 2011.
The NSLHD, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:
* The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. lt also
encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 16 and24), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses by
the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent ent¡ty.
. The Northern Sydney Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the NSLHD on 1 January 2011
in accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable the NSLHD to exercise its functions.
As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises theparent and special purpose service entity. ln the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements consisting of the controlling and controlled
entities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions and other events are accounted for using uniform
accounting policies.
NSLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is also
controlled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. The
reporting entity is a notfor-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the l/Chief Executive on 4 September2017.
b) Basis of Preparation
The NSLHD's financial statemenls are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with
applicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting lnterpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act ',l997
and its regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act
1983 and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015 (the Act), and the financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act. The
financial statements comply with the NSW Treasury mandates circular for NSW General Government Sector Entities. Further information on the
adjusted budget figures can be found at Note 1 (af).
The financial statements of the NSLHD have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Secretary of Health, the Chair of the Northern Sydney Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreement have
agreed to service and funding levels for the fon¡vard financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for public health
services under the NSLHD's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management to control its
financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the NSLHD fails to meet Service Agreement performance
standards, the Ministry of Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including
financial support and increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:
. Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
- The NSLHD has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.
- The NSLHD has developed an Efficiency and lmprovement Plan (ElP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies.
Benefits from the EIP are retained by the NSLHD and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the
Ministry throughout the financial year.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for saleare measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specified
othenryise.
Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.
c) Comparativelnformation
Except when an Australian Accounting Standard permits or requires otherwise, comparative information is disclosed in respect of the previous period
for all amounts reported in the financial statements.
Northern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe yearended 30 June 2017
1. SummaryofSignificantAccountingPolicies
d) Statement of Compliance
Ïhe financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting lnterpretations.
e) Employee Benefits and Other Provisions
i) Salaries & Wages, Annual Leave, Sick Leave and On.Costs
Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the endof the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at lhe undiæounted amounts of the benefits.
Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employeesrender the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although
short-cut methods are permitted).
Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury , a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confìrmed that using the nominal annual leave
balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual leaveliability.On-costsof 17.2o/oareappliedtothevalueof leavepayableat 30June2017(comparableon+ostsfor30June2016were16.7%).TheNSLHD has assessed the actuarial advice based on the NSLHD's circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is immaterial
to annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater
than the benefits aærued in the future.
ii) Long Service Leave and Superannuation
The NSLHD's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and StateSuperannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity , which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
The NSLHD accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetaryrevenue item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.
Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by the NSLHD as shown in Note 27.
Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 1 19, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of certainfactors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using cunent rates of pay. These factorswere determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.
The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer's Directions. The expensefor certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For othersuperannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as amultiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
iii) Consequential On.Gosts
Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have beenrecognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers' compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.
iv) Other Provisions
Other provisions exist when the NSLHD has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow ofresources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
lnsurance
The NSLHD's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities.ïhe expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience.The TMF is managed by lnsurance and Care NSW(iCare), a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
S) Finance Gosts
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to notfor-profit NSWgeneral government sector entities.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
h) lncome Recognition
lncome is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policies
for the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Sa/e ofGoods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when the NSLHD transfers the signifìcant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.
Rendering of Seruices
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient Fees
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue is
recognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
H ighly S peci a lised D rugs
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicare
and reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement provides
for the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admittedpatients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
State Insurance Regulatory Authoríty (SIRA)
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those persons
hospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. The NSLHD recognises the revenue on an accruals basis fromthe time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Departnent of Veterans' Affairs
An agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of health
services to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by the NSLHD on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions. Non
admitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Investment Revenue
lnterest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial lnstruments: Recognition and Measurement.
Debt Forgiveness
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.
Use of Hospital Facilities
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge forthe use of hospital facilities at rates determined by the NSW
Ministry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
* a monthly charge raised by the NSLHD based on a percentage of receipts generated.* the residual of the Private Practice Trust Fund at the end of each financial year, such sum being credited for the NSLHD use in the
advancement of the NSLHD or individuals within it.
Refer to Note 9(b) for further details.
Use of Outside Facilities
The NSLHD uses a number of facilities owned and maintained by the local authorities in the area to deliver community health services for which no
charges are raised by the authorities.
Where material, the cost method of accounting is used for the initial recording of all such services. Cost is determined as the fair value of the servicesgiven and is then recognised as revenue with a matching expense.
G ra nts and Co ntrib utions
Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when the NSLHD obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control overcontributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.
Northern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe yearended 30 June 2017
l. SummaryofSignificantAccountingPolícies
NSW Ministry of Health Allocations
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for the NSLHD as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly for salaryagreements and approved enhancement projects.
This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive lncome before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned in
return for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
General operating expenses/revenues of Greenwich & Neringah Hospitals (HammondCare) and Royal Rehabilitation Centre, Sydney have only beenincluded in the Statement of Comprehensive lncome prepared to the extent of the cash payments made to the Health Organisations concerned. TheNSLHD is not deemed to own or control the various assets/liabilities of the aforementioned Health Organisations and such amounts have been
excluded from the Statement of Financial Position. Any exceptions are specifically listed in the notes that follow.
i) Accounting for the Goods & Services Tax (GST)
lncome, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
* amount of GST incurred by the NSLHD as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an
asset's cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; and
* receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing and
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.
j) lnterstate Patíent Flows
lnterstate patient flows are funded through the State Pool, based on activity and consistent with the price determined in the service level agreement.ïhe funding is recognised as recurrent allocation received from the immediate parent.
k) Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given toacquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised in
accordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Most assets are acquired from Health Adm¡nistration Corporation, a controlled entity of the immediate parent.
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date.
Where payment for an asset is defened beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the defened payment amount iseffectively discounted over the period of credit.
Land and buiHings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which areoperated/occupied by the NSLHD are deemed to be controlled by the NSLHD and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
l) Capitalisation Thresholds
lndividual items of Property, Plant & Equipment and lntangibles are capitalised where their cost is $10,000 or above.
Northern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe year ended 30 June 2017
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
m) Depreciation of Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumed
over its useful life to the NSLHD. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their useful lives.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings 2.5o/o
lnfrastructure Systems 2.5%
Plant and Equipment
- Computer Equipment 20.00/o
- Electro Medical Equipment* Costing less than $200,000 10.0%.
Costing more than or equal to $200,000 12.5Yo
- Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings 5.00/o
- Linen 25.0o/o
- Motor Vehicle Sedans 12.5Yo
- Motor Vehicles, Trucks & Vans 20.0Yo
- Office Equipment 10.0%
- Plant and Machinery 10.0%
"lnfrastructure Systems" means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of the
economy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported.
n) RevaluationofNon.CurentAssets
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Cunent Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper
(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and
AASB 140 lnvestment Property.
lnvestment property is separately discussed at Note 1(q).
Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible and
financially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the asset
being measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. ln most cases, after taking into account these considerations, the
highest and best use is the existing use. ln limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are no
restrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants' perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, cost
approach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 20 and Note 23 for further
information regarding fair value.
To ensure that the carrying amount for each asset does not differ materially from its fair value at reporting date, indices are sourced. The indices reflect
an assessment of movements made in the period between revaluations.
Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. Ihe entity has assessed
that any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.
For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of those
assets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation increments
or decrements,
p)
Northern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe year ended 30 June 2017
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrement in
respect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the net
result.
Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists in
the revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
As a notfor-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-curent assets, but not otherwise.
Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset istransferred to accumulated funds.
o) lmpairment of Property, Plant and Equipment
As a notfor-profit entity with no cash generating units, lmpairment under AASB 136 lmpairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant and
equipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where the
costs of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for notfor-profit entities given that AASB ',l36 modifies the recoverable amount test
for non-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, where
depreciated replacement cost is also fair value.
Restoration Costs
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as a
liability.
q) lnvestmentProperties
lnvestment property is held to earn rentals orfor capital appreciation, or both. However, for not-for-profit entities, property held to meet service delivery
objectives rather than to earn rental or for capital appreciation does not meet the definition of investment property and is accounted for under AASB
116, Property, Plant and Equipment.
The NSLHD does not have any property that meets the definition of lnvestment Property.
r) lntangible Assets
The NSLHD recognises intangible assets only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the NSLHD and the cost of the asset can be
measured reliably. lntangible assets are measured initially at cost.
Where an asset is acquired at no or nominal cost, the cost is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. All research costs are expensed. Development
costs are only capitalised when certain criteria are met.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite.
lntangible assets are subsequently measured at fair value only if there is an active market. As there is no active market for the NSLHD's intangible
assets, the assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Computer software developed or acquired by the NSLHD are recognised as intangible assets and are amortised over four years using the straight line
method based on the useful life of the asset for both internally developed assets and direct acquisitions. Most computer software is acquired from theHealth Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the parent.
lntangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists. lf the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount the
carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount and the reduction is recognised as an impairment loss.

L Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
s) Maintenance
Day{o-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or componentof an asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.
Leased Assets
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental toownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.
Where a non-cunent asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair value
or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the same
amount. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
Operating lease payments are recogn¡sed as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
u) lnventories
lnventories held for distribution are measured at cost, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potentlal. lnventories (other than those held fordistribution) are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.
v) Loans and Receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financial
assets are recognised in¡tially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance forany impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
w) lnvestments
lnvestments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. The NSLHD
determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial year
end.
* The NSLHD subsequently measures investments classifìed as'held fortrading'or designated upon initial recognition ''at fair value through profit
or loss" at fair value.
Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified
as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.
T-Corp Hour-Glass lnvestment facilities are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The
facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair
value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. lnformation about these assets is provided internally to the NSLHD'S
key management personnel.
The risk management strategy of the NSLHD has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of thePublic Authorities (Financial Anangements) Act.
T Corp Hour-Glass investments are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing
secure investments.
The movement in the fair value of the T Corp Hour-Glass lnvestment facilities incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised
movements in fairvalue and is reported in the líne item'investment revenue'.
* Held-to-maturity investments - Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the NSLHD has thepositive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held{o-maturity'.
ïhese investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are reægnised in the net result for the year
when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
* Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments and
measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed orimpaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for theyear. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
forthe year ended 30 June 2017
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation arerecognised on the trade date; i.e. the date the NSLHD commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close ofbusiness on the Statement of Financial Position date.
x) lmpairment of Financial Assets
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impa¡rment. An allowance forimpairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value
of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for the year.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result for theyear, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any
impairment loss previously recognised in the net result for the year.
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairment
losses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as "available for sale", must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses offinancial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there not
been an impairment loss.
y) De.recognition of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if the NSLHD transfers the financialasset:
* where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or* where the NSLHD has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if the NSLHD has not retained control.
Where the NSLHD has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transfered control, the asset is recognised to the
extent of the NSLHD's continuing involvement in the asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
zl Payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the NSLHD and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.
Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short{erm payables with no stated interest rate are measured at
the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the NSLHD.
aa) Bonowings
Loans are not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss and are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method. Gains or losses are recognised in the net result for the year on derecognition.
Borrowings include finance lease liabilities. The finance lease liability is determined in accordance with AASB 117, Leases.
ab) Fair Value Hierarchy
A number of the NSLHD's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non{inancial assets and
liabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use ofunobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, the NSLHD categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based on
the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
* Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.* Level 2 - inputs otherthan quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.* Level 3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The NSLHD recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occuned.
Refer to Note 23 and Note 38 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non{inancial assets.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
ac) Equity Transfers
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative reskucture, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof between
entities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,
Contributions and Australian Accounting lnterpretation '1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount atwhich the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fairvalue.
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by the
transferor because there is no active market, the NSLHD recognises the asset at the transferois carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibited
from recognising internally generated intangibles, the NSLHD does not recognise that asset.
ad) Equity and Reserves
(i) Accumulated Funds
The category "accumulated funds" includes all cunent and prior period retained funds.
(ii) Revaluation Surplus
The revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with the NSLHD'spolicy on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment as discussed in Note 1(n).
(iii) Separate Reserves
Separate reserve accounls are recognised in the financial statements only if such accounts are required by specific legislation or Australian
Accounting Standards,
ae) Trust Funds
The NSLHD receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 30.
As the NSLHD performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of the NSLHD's
own objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statemenls.
af) Adjusted Budgeted Amounts
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). The
NSLHD's budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055'Budgetary Reporting' to present original budget information, the NSLHD's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjusted
budgeted amounts are drawn from the initial Service Agreements between the NSLHD and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of the financialyear, as well as any adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budget at year
end (i.e. adjusted budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financial statements are
denoted as "Unaudited".
Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note 36.
ag) Emerging Asset
The NSLHD's emerging interest in the Royal North Shore Hospital Car Park has been valued in accordance with the Ministry of Health's policy forAccounting for Privately Financed ProJects. This policy required the NSLHD to initially determine the estimated written down replacement cost by
reference to the project's historical cost escalated by a construction index and the asset's estimated working life. The estimated written down
replacement cost was then allocated on a systematic basis over the concession period of 28 (22 years remaining) years using the annuity method and
the Government Bond rate of 6% at commencement of the concession period.

1. SummaryofSignificantAccountingPolicies
ah) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards
(i) Effective for the first time in 2016.17
The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised
Australian Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Extending Related Party Dr'sc/osures to Not-for-Profit Publlc Secfor Entilres
extends the scope of MSB 124 Related Party Dlsc/osures to include application by nolfor-profit public sector entities. The application of this
standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management Personnel
compensation.
AASB2015-TAmendnentstoAustralianAccountingStandards-FairValue Dlsc/osures of Not-for-ProfitPublicsectorEntities is applicableto
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. The Entity early adopted this standard in the financial year ended 30 June 2016, which
allows for exemption from making certain Level 3 'Fair Value Measuremenf disclosures held primarily for current service potential rather than
the generation of future net cash inflows.
(ii) lssued but not yet effective
NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless NSW Treasury determines othenrise.
The following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been
applied and are not yet efiective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:
AASB 2016-2 Amendmentsto Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure lnitiative: Amendnentsto AASB 107 applies to annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2017.The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding
financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 9 Financial lnstrunenfs and AASB 2014-7 Am endments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB g are applicable forreporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace MSB 139 Financial lnstruments: Recognition and Measurement and
establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. MSB g also introduces a
forwardlooking'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.
2016-T and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 for notfor-profit entities. MSB 15 establishes a
contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers.
This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transfened to the customer at the transactionprice. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction
AASB 1058 lncome of Not-forProfit Entities applies to nolfor-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less than
the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be impacted
depending on whether there is a liability or other performanæ obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.
AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be
measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with cunent practice under
AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.

23. Fair Value Measurement of l{on.Financial Asseb
b) Valuation Techniques, lnpub and Processes
For land, buildings and infastructure systems the NSLHD obtains extemal valuations by independent valuers at least every three years. The last
revaluation was performed by Liquid Pacific for the 2016117 financial year. Liquid Pacific is an independent entity and is not an associated entity ofthe NSLHD.
At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to whether
any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 20 reconcilation.
The noncurrent assets categorised in a) above have been measured as either level 2 or level 3 based on the following valuation techniques and
inputs:
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most
significant input is price per square metre,
All commercial and non+estricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands are
not identical.
For buildings and infrastructure, many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method is depreciated
replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs. However, residential properties
are valued on a market approach and included in level 2.

36. Adjusted Budget Review - Parent and Consolidated
Net Result
The actual Net Result was higher than adjusted budget by $2 Million, primarily due to:
Revenue being favourable by $7 Million which was largely attributable to higher than expected Grants & Contributions and Sale of Goods and Services.
Expenditure being unfavourable by $5 Million, largely attributable to employee related expenses as a result of higher than expected acute and
emergency department activity across the District.
Assets and Liabilities
Actual Consolidated Total Assets are $268 Million favourable to budget due to Asset Revaluation.
Actual Consolidated Total Liabilitiæ were $3 Million favourable to budget. The main variance to budget related to the decrease in Payables of $2 Million
and Other (lncome in Advance) $1 Million.
Cash Flows
Actual Operating Cash Flows were $0.5 Million unfavourable to budget. The variance to the budget is related to additional employee related expenditureincuned due to higher than expected activity.

(b) Credit Risk
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the NSLHD.
The maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk arises from financial assets of the NSLHD, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by the NSLHD. The NSLHDhas not granted any financial guarantees.
Credit risk associated with the NSLHD's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment ofminimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
Cash
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. lnterest is earned on daily bank balances at rates
of approximately 2.35o/o in 2016117 conpared to 2.6o/o in the previous year.
The TCorp Hour-Glass cash facility is discussed in paragraph (d) below.
Receivables - trade debtors
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as
established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover
outstanding amounts, including lefters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised whenthere is objective evidence that the NSLHD will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and cunent and expected
changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.
The NSLHD is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors thatare not past due (2017: $40.9 Million ; 2016: $36.8 Million) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $5 Million ; 2016: $4.3 Million) are not consideredimpaired.
ln addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes tosettle legal claims. Most of the NSLHD's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatienttreatments.
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of theStatement of Financial Position. Patient Fees lneligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.

Notes
1 Each column in the table reports "gross receivables'.
2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASBT Financial lnstruments Disclosures and excludes
receivables that are not past due and not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of fìnancial
position.
Authority Deposits
The NSLHD has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poo/s. These deposits are similar to money market or
bank deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed
for the term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest rate
of 2.4o/o (2016:2.1%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 2.37o/o (2016,2.470/o) on a weighted average balance during the year of$65,7 Million (2016: $63.6 Million). None of these assets are past due or impaired.
(c) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the NSLHD will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. The NSLHD continuously manages risk through
monitoring future cash flows and maturitiæ planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid æsets and liabilities.
The NSLHD has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.
During the cunent and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
The NSLHD has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual
service agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the
NSLHD fails to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual
performance framework requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or servicæ received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to suppliers(which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular 11112.For
small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered invoice. For
other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an invoice or a
statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing
contract specifies otherwise.
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with
creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.

38. Financiallnstruments
(d) Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a fìnancial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market priæs. The NSLHD's
exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on the NSLHD's borrowings and other pdce risks associated with the movement in the unitprice of the Hour-Glass lnvestment facilities. The NSLHD has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.
The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and otherprice risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which the NSLHD
operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in
existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other variablesremain constant.
lnterest rate risk
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through the NSLHD's interest bearing liabilities.
However, the NSLHD is not permitted to borrow external to the NSW Ministry of Health (except energy loans which are negotiated through NSW Treasury).
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. TheNSLHD does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financialinskuments, a change of interest rates would not afiect net result or equity.
A reasonably possible change of +l-1To is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last fiveyears). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
Exposure to 'other price risk' primarily arises through the investment in the NSW TCorp Hour-Glass lnvestment Facilities, which are held for strategic rather
than trading purposes. The NSLHD has no directequity investments. The NSLHD holds units in thefollowing Hour-Glass investmenttrusts:
Cash facility Cash and money market instruments Up to 1.5 years 66,365 64,828
The unit price of each facility is equal to the total fair value of net assets held by the facility divided by the total number of units on issue for that facility. Unitprices are calculated and published daily.
NSW TCorp as trustee for each of the above facilities is required to act in the best interest of the unit holders and to administer the trusts in accordance with
the trust deeds. As trustee, NSW TCorp has appointed external managers to manage the performance and risk of each facility in accordance with amandate agreed by the parties. NSW TCorp has also leveraged off internal expertise to manage certain fìxed income assets for the Hour-Glass facilities. Asignificant portion of the administration of the facilities is outsourced to an external cuslodian.
lnvestment in the Hour-Glass facilities limits the NSLHD's exposure to risk, as it allows diversification across a pool of funds with different investment
horizons and a mix of investments.
NSW TCorp provides sensitivity analysis information for each of the lnvestment facilities, using historically based volatility information collected over a ten
year period, quoted at two standard deviations (ie 95% probability). NSW TCorp Hour-Glass lnvestment facilities are designated at fair value through profit
or loss and therefore any change in unit price impacts directly on profit (rather than equity).
A reasonably possible change is based on the percentage change in unit price (as advised by NSW TCorp) multiplied by the redemption value as at 30 June
each year for each facility (balance from Hour-Glass Statement).
Financial instruments are generally recognised at cost, with the exception of the NSW TCorp Hour-Glass facilities, which are measured at fair value.
The amortised cost of financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position approximates the fair value, because of the short term nature
of many of the financial instruments.
Therefore the fair value of the financial instruments do not differ from the carrying amount.

South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
(the District), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the
year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the District
and the entity it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
• are in accordance with section 45E of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and
the Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. My responsibilities under the
standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’
section of my report.
I am independent of the District in accordance with the requirements of the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of
New South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor-
General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my
audit opinion.
2
Emphasis of Matter – Presentation of Budget Information
Without modification to the opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting
adjusted budget information detailed in Note 1(ah). The note states that AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary
Reporting’ is not applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055
‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the District’s financial statements present
adjusted budget information.
The Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act, and for such internal control
as the Chief Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and
the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will be dissolved by an
Act of Parliament or otherwise cease. The assessment must disclose, as applicable, matters related to
going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take based
on the financial statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing
and Assurance Standards Board website at: www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar3.pdf.
The description forms part of my auditor’s report.
My opinion does not provide assurance:
• that the District or the consolidated entity carried out its activities effectively, efficiently and
economically
• about the assumptions used in formulating the budget figures disclosed in the financial
statements
• about the security and controls over the electronic publication of the audited financial
statements on any website where they may be presented
• about any other information which may have been hyperlinked to/from the financial statements.
We state, pursuant to section 45F of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983:
The financial statements exhibit a true and fair view of the financial position and the financial performance of the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District; and
We are not aware of any circumstances which would render any particulars in the financial statements to be misleading or inaccurate.
The financial statements of the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been prepared in accordance with:
financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act.
the requirements of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983, the Public Finance and Audit Regulation2015 (the Act); and
Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations);

The SESLHD has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.
The SESLHD has developed an Efficiency and Improvement Plan (EIP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies. Benefits from the EIP are retained by the SESLHD and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the Ministry throughout the financial year.
Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for saleare measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specifiedotherwise.
Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.
The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. It also encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 16 and 25), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses by the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent entity.
The South Eastern Sydney Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the SESLHD on 1 January 2011 in accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable the SESLHD to exercise its functions.
The SESLHD, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:

South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Basis of Preparation
The SESLHD's financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance withapplicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act 1997and its regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act1983 and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015 (the Act), and the Financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act. Thefinancial statements comply with the NSW Treasury mandates circular for NSW General Government Sector Entities. Further information on theadjusted budget figures can be found at Note 1(ah).
As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises theparent and special purpose service entity. In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements consisting of the controlling and controlledentities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions and other events are accounted for using uniformaccounting policies.
SESLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is alsocontrolled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. Thereporting entity is a not-for-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the Chief Executive on 8 September2017.
The financial statements of the SESLHD have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Secretary of Health, the Chair of the South Eastern Sydney Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreementhave agreed to service and funding levels for the forward financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for publichealth services under the SESLHD's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management tocontrol its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the SESLHD fails to meet Service Agreementperformance standards, the Ministry of Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements,including financial support and increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:

Other provisions exist when the SESLHD has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Employee Benefits and Other Provisions
Insurance
Finance Costs
Salaries & Wages, Annual Leave, Sick Leave and On-Costs
Comparative Information
Except when an Australian Accounting Standard permits or requires otherwise, comparative information is disclosed in respect of the previous periodfor all amounts reported in the financial statements.
Statement of Compliance
The financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting Interpretations.
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to not-for-profit NSWgeneral government sector entities.
The SESLHD's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities.The expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience.The TMF is managed by Insurance and Care NSW(iCare), a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
Long Service Leave and Superannuation
Consequential On-Costs
Other Provisions
Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at the undiscounted amounts of the benefits.
Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although short-cut methods are permitted).
Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confirmed that using the nominal annual leave balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual leave liability. On-costs of 17.2% are applied to the value of leave payable at 30 June 2017 (comparable on-costs for 30 June 2016 were 16.7%).The SESLHD has assessed the actuarial advice based on the SESLHD’s circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is immaterial to annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater than the benefits accrued in the future.
The SESLHD's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and State Superannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity, which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
The SESLHD accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetary revenue item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.
Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by the SESLHD as shown in Note 27.
Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of certain factors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using current rates of pay. These factors were determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.
The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer’s Directions. The expense for certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For other superannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as a multiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have been recognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers’ compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.

Use of Hospital Facilities
Where material, the cost method of accounting is used for the initial recording of all such services. Cost is determined as the fair value of the servicesgiven and is then recognised as revenue with a matching expense.
Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policiesfor the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when the SESLHD transfers the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue isrecognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicareand reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement providesfor the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admittedpatients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
Patient Fees
Department of Veterans' Affairs
An agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of healthservices to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by the SESLHD on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions.Non admitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge (fee) for the use of hospital facilities at rates determined by theNSW Ministry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
The SESLHD uses a number of facilities owned and maintained by the local authorities in the area to deliver community health services for which nocharges are raised by the authorities.
Income Recognition
Sale of Goods
Rendering of Services
Investment Revenue
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those personshospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. The SESLHD recognises the revenue on an accruals basis fromthe time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.
Debt Forgiveness
Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when the SESLHD obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control overcontributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.

Individual items of Property, Plant & Equipment and Intangibles are capitalised where their cost is $10,000 or above.
Interstate Patient Flows
Land and buildings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which areoperated/occupied by the SESLHD are deemed to be controlled by the SESLHD and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given toacquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised inaccordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date.
Where payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the deferred payment amount iseffectively discounted over the period of credit.
Interstate patient flows are funded through the State Pool, based on activity and consistent with the price determined in the service level agreement.The funding is recognised as recurrent allocation received from the immediate parent.
Refer to Note 1(ae) for assets transferred as a result of equity transfer.
Most assets assets are acquired from Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the immediate parent.
amount of GST incurred by the SESLHD as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an asset's cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
NSW Ministry of Health Allocations
Accounting for the Goods & Services Tax (GST)
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for the SESLHD as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly forsalary agreements and approved enhancement projects.
This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned inreturn for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
General operating expenses/revenues of Calvary Health Care Sydney, War Memorial Hospital Waverley and Eastern Sydney SCARBA Centre haveonly been included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income prepared to the extent of the cash payments made to the Health Organisationsconcerned. The SESLHD is not deemed to own or control the various assets/liabilities of the aforementioned Health Organisations and such amountshave been excluded from the Statement of Financial Position. Any exceptions are specifically listed in the notes that follow.
Capitalisation Thresholds
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing andfinancing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.

Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumedover its useful life to the SESLHD. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their usefullives.
To ensure that the carrying amount for each asset does not differ materially from its fair value at reporting date, indices are sourced. The indicesreflect an assessment of movements made in the period between revaluations and are applied when a class of asset has a movement of 10% ormore.
Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. The entity has assessedthat any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Current Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment andAASB 140 Investment Property.
- Electro Medical Equipment
Investment property is separately discussed at Note 1(s).
Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible andfinancially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the assetbeing measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. In most cases, after taking into account these considerations, thehighest and best use is the existing use. In limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are norestrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants’ perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, costapproach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 20 and Note 24 for furtherinformation regarding fair value.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported.
* Costing less than $200,000
* Costing more than or equal to $200,000
- Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings
Infrastructure Systems
“Infrastructure Systems” means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of theeconomy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
- Computer Equipment
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.
For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of thoseassets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation incrementsor decrements.

p) Assets Not Able to be Reliably Measured
q) Restoration Costs
r) Non-Current Assets (or disposal groups) Held for Sale
s) Investment Properties
t) Intangible Assets
Where an asset is acquired at no or nominal cost, the cost is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. All research costs are expensed.Development costs are only capitalised when certain criteria are met.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite.
The SESLHD does not have any property that meets the definition of Investment Property.
The SESLHD recognises intangible assets only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the SESLHD and the cost of the asset can bemeasured reliably. Intangible assets are measured initially at cost.
The SESLHD has certain non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale, where their carrying amount will be recovered principallythrough a sale transaction, not through continuing use.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are recognised at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. Theseassets are not depreciated while they are classified as held for sale.
Investment property is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. However, for not-for-profit entities, property held to meet service deliveryobjectives rather than to earn rental or for capital appreciation does not meet the definition of investment property and is accounted for under AASB116, Property, Plant and Equipment.
Computer software developed or acquired by the SESLHD are recognised as intangible assets and are amortised over four years using the straightline method based on the useful life of the asset for both internally developed assets and direct acquisitions. Most computer software is acquired fromthe Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the parent.
As a not-for-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-current assets, but not otherwise.
Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset istransferred to accumulated funds.
The SESLHD holds certain assets that are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position because the SESLHD is unable to measure reliablythe value of the assets and those assets are unlikely to be material.
The SESLHD holds a unique collection of pathology specimens of which their normal place of residence is at Sydney Hospital. Parts of the collectionare currently on loan to a range of associated educational and health institutions.
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as aliability.
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrementin respect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the netresult.
Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists inthe revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
Intangible assets are subsequently measured at fair value only if there is an active market. As there is no active market for the SESLHD's intangibleassets, the assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount thecarrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount and the reduction is recognised as an impairment loss.
As a not-for-profit entity with no cash generating units, impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant andequipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where thecosts of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for not-for-profit entities given that AASB 136 modifies the recoverable amount testfor non-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, wheredepreciated replacement cost is also fair value.

T Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. Information about these assets is provided internally to the SESLHD's key management personnel.
The SESLHD subsequently measures investments classified as 'held for trading' or designated upon initial recognition “at fair value through profit or loss” at fair value.
Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.
Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments and measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed or impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for the year. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financialassets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance forany impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. The SESLHDdetermines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial yearend.
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.
The movement in the fair value of the T Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised movements in fair value and is reported in the line item ‘investment revenue’.
Held-to-maturity investments – Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the SESLHD has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held-to-maturity'.
These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are recognised in the net result for the year when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
The risk management strategy of the SESLHD has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of the Public Authorities (Financial Arrangements) Act.
T Corp Hour-Glass investments are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing secure investments.
Inventories held for distribution are measured at cost, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Inventories (other than those held fordistribution) are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental toownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.
Where a non-current asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair valueor, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the sameamount. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Day-to-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or componentof an asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the SESLHD and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.
Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables with no stated interest rate are measured atthe original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
where the SESLHD has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if the SESLHD has not retained control.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if the SESLHD transfers the financialasset:
where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairmentlosses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as “available for sale”, must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses of financial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there notbeen an impairment loss.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the SESLHD.
Loans are not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss and are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest ratemethod. Gains or losses are recognised in the net result for the year on derecognition.
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation arerecognised on the trade date; i.e. the date the SESLHD commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The SESLHD recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Refer to Note 24 and Note 37 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets.
Borrowings include finance lease liabilities. The finance lease liability is determined in accordance with AASB 117, Leases.
A number of the SESLHD’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets andliabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use ofunobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, the SESLHD categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based onthe inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
Where the SESLHD has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transferred control, the asset is recognised to theextent of the SESLHD's continuing involvement in the asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close ofbusiness on the Statement of Financial Position date.
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impairment. An allowance forimpairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the presentvalue of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for theyear.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result forthe year, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less anyimpairment loss previously recognised in the net result for the year.

af) Equity and Reserves
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
ag) Trust Funds
ah) Adjusted Budgeted Amounts
ai) Emerging Asset
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by thetransferor because there is no active market, the SESLHD recognises the asset at the transferor's carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibitedfrom recognising internally generated intangibles, the SESLHD does not recognise that asset.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount atwhich the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fairvalue.
Accumulated FundsThe category "accumulated funds" includes all current and prior period retained funds.
Revaluation SurplusThe revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with the SESLHD's policy on the revaluation of non-current assets as discussed in Note 1(n).
Separate Reserves
Separate reserve accounts are recognised in the financial statements only if such accounts are required by specific legislation or Australian Accounting Standards.
The SESLHD receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 30.
The SESLHD's emerging interest in the St George (STG), Sydney (SYD) and Prince of Wales (POW) Hospital Car Parks has been valued inaccordance with the Ministry of Health's policy for Accounting for Privately Financed Projects. This policy required the SESLHD to initially determinethe estimated written down replacement cost by reference to the project's historical cost escalated by a construction index and the asset's estimatedworking life. The estimated written down replacement cost was then allocated on a systematic basis over the concession period of 25 years using theannuity method and the Government Bond rate of 6.61% (STG), 9.47% (SYD) & 7.23% (POW) at commencement of the concession period.
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative restructure, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof betweenentities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,Contributions and Australian Accounting Interpretation 1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
As the SESLHD performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of theSESLHD's own objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statements.
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). TheSESLHD's budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the SESLHD's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjustedbudgeted amounts are drawn from the initial Service Agreements between the SESLHD and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of thefinancial year, as well as any adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budgetat year end (i.e. adjusted budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financialstatements are denoted as "Unaudited".
Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note36.

South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
aj) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards
(i)
(ii)
NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless NSW Treasury determines otherwise. The following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been applied and are not yet effective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:
Issued but not yet effective
Effective for the first time in 2016-17
The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised Australian Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:
AASB 16 Leases applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard introduces a new approach to lease accounting that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases. The application of this standard will likely have a significant transitional impact as all leases, except short term (<12 months) and low value leases, will need to be brought on to the balance sheet.
AASB 1058 Income of Not-for-Profit Entities applies to not-for-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less than the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be impacted depending on whether there is a liability or other performance obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.
AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with current practice under AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and associated amending standards AASB 2014-5, AASB 2015-8, AASB 2016-3, AASB 2016-7 and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 for not-for-profit entities. AASB 15 establishes a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers. This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at the transaction price. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction.
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities extends the scope of AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to include application by not-for-profit public sector entities. The application of this standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management Personnel compensation.
AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities is applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. The Entity early adopted this standard in the financial year ended 30 June 2016, which allows for exemption from making certain Level 3 'Fair Value Measurement' disclosures held primarily for current service potential rather than the generation of future net cash inflows.
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 are applicable for reporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. AASB 9 also introduces a forward-looking 'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.

b) Valuation Techniques, Inputs and Processes
For land, buildings, infrastructure systems, and other assets the SESLHD obtains external valuations by independent valuers at least every three years. The last revaluation was performed by CBRE Valuations Pty Ltd for the 2014/15 financial year. CBRE Valuations Pty Ltd is an independent entity and is not an associated entity of the SESLHD.
At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to whether any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 20 reconcilation.

South Eastern Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale is a non-recurring item that is measured at fair value less cost to sell, which is less than its carrying amount. These assets are categorised as level 2.
For buildings, infrastructure, and other assets, many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method is depreciated replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs.
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most significant input is price per square metre.
All commercial and non-restricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands are not identical.
All of the restricted land has been classified as level 3 as, although observable inputs have been used, a significant level of professional judgement is required to adjust inputs in determining the land valuations Certain parcels of land have zoning restrictions, for example hospital grounds, and values are adjusted accordingly.

Movements in the level of the NSW Ministry of Health Recurrent Allocation that have occurred since the time of the initial allocation on 21 Jun 2016 are as follows:
The actual Net Result was higher than adjusted budget by $20 million, primarily due to:
The District received unbudgeted cash assistance of $15M from the immediate parent and made a gain on disposal of $11M on the sale of Primrose House at Dolls Point.
* Excludes statutory receivables and prepayments (i.e. not within scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures)

Loans and receivables (at amortised cost)
**Excludes statutory payables (i.e. not within scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures). In addition Accrued Salaries, Wages and On-Costs are have been excluded as not within the scope of AASB7. Prior year comparatives have been restated as a result.
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the SESLHD. The maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk associated with the SESLHD's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment of minimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
Credit risk arises from financial assets of the SESLHD, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by the SESLHD. The SESLHD has not granted any financial guarantees.
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. Interest is earned on daily bank balances at rates of approximately 2.4% in 2016/17 compared to 2.8% in the previous year.

The SESLHD's principal financial instruments are outlined below. These financial instruments arise directly from the SESLHD's operations or are required to finance its operations. The SESLHD does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
The SESLHD's main risks arising from financial instruments are outlined below, together with the SESLHD's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk. Further quantitative and qualitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.
The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the SESLHD, to set risk limits and controls and to monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed on a continuous basis.

Notes
1 Each column in the table reports "gross receivables".
Authority Deposits
In addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes to settle legal claims. Most of the SESLHD's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatient treatments.
The SESLHD is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors that are not past due (2017: $40.9M ; 2016: $29.2M) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $4M ; 2016: $2.7M) are not considered impaired.
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either 'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of the Statement of Financial Position. Patient Fees Ineligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.
2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures and excludes receivables that are not past due and not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of financial position.
The SESLHD has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These deposits are similar to money market or bank deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed for the term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest rate of 2.49% (2016: 2.5%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 1.35% (2016: 1.3%) on a weighted average balance during the year of $77.7M (2016: $80.7M). None of these assets are past due or impaired.
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover outstanding amounts, including letters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised when there is objective evidence that the SESLHD will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and current and expected changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.

(c) Liquidity Risk
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.
The SESLHD has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual service agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the SESLHD fails to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1(b)).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to suppliers (which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular 11/12. For small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered invoice. For other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an invoice or a statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing contract specifies otherwise.
The SESLHD has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.
During the current and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the SESLHD will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. The SESLHD continuously manages risk through monitoring future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid assets and liabilities.

The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and other price risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which the SESLHD operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through the SESLHD's interest bearing liabilities.
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. The SESLHD does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financial instruments, a change of interest rates would not affect net result or equity.
A reasonably possible change of +/-1% is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last five years). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.
+1%-1%
*Accrued Salaries Wages, On-Costs and Payroll Deductions have been excluded from payables as not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures. Prior year comparatives have been restated as a result.
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The SESLHD's exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on the SESLHD's borrowings and other price risks associated with the movement in the unit price of the Hour-Glass Investment facilities. The SESLHD has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.

South Western Sydney Local Health District
Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
South Western Sydney Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of South Western Sydney Local Health District
(the District), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows and service
group statement for the year then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting
policies and other explanatory information of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated
entity comprises the District and the entity it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the
financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards
• are in accordance with section 45E of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and
the Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. My responsibilities under the
standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’
section of my report.
I am independent of the District and the consolidated entity in accordance with the requirements of
the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have also fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament further promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of
New South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor-
General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my
audit opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
Without modification to the opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting adjusted budget information detailed in Note 1 (ag). The note states that AASB 1055 'Budgetary Reporting' is not applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 'Budgetary Reporting' to present original budget information, the District's financial statements present adjusted budget information.
Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act and for such internal control as
the Chief Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and
the consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will cease as a result
of an administrative restructure. The assessment must disclose, as applicable, matters related to
going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or
in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take
based on the financial statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing

The SWSLHD has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.The SWSLHD has developed an Efficiency and Improvement Plan (EIP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies. Benefits from the EIP are retained by the SWSLHD and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the Ministry throughout the financial year.
Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for saleare measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specifiedotherwise.Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.Comparative InformationExcept when an Australian Accounting Standard permits or requires otherwise, comparative information is disclosed in respect of the previous periodfor all amounts reported in the financial statements.
The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. It also encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 16 and 24), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses by the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent entity.The South Western Sydney Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the SWSLHD on 1 January 2011 in accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable the SWSLHD to exercise its functions.
The SWSLHD, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:
The Reporting EntityThe South Western Sydney Local Health District (the SWSLHD) was established under the provisions of the Health Services Act 1997 with effect from 1January 2011.
South Western Sydney Local Health DistrictNotes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Basis of PreparationThe SWSLHD's financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance withapplicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act 1997 andits regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015 (the Act), and the financial Reporting Directions issued by the Treasurer under the Act. The financialstatements comply with the NSW Treasury mandates circular for NSW General Government Sector Entities. Further information on the adjusted budgetfigures can be found at Note 1(ag).
As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises theparent and special purpose service entity. In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements consisting of the controlling and controlledentities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions and other events are accounted for using uniformaccounting policies.SWSLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is alsocontrolled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. Thereporting entity is a not-for-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the Chief Executive on 01 September,2017.
The financial statements of the SWSLHD have been prepared on a going concern basis.The Secretary of Health, the Chair of the South Western Sydney Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreementhave agreed to service and funding levels for the forward financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for publichealth services under the SWSLHD's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management tocontrol its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the SWSLHD fails to meet Service Agreementperformance standards, the Ministry of Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements,including financial support and increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:

Other provisions exist when the SWSLHD has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Employee Benefits and Other Provisions
Insurance
Finance Costs
Salaries & Wages, Annual Leave, Sick Leave and On-Costs
Statement of ComplianceThe financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting Interpretations.
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to not-for-profit NSWgeneral government sector entities.
The SWSLHD's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities.The expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience.The TMF is managed by Insurance and Care NSW(iCare), a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
Long Service Leave and Superannuation
Consequential On-Costs
Other Provisions
Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at the undiscounted amounts of the benefits. Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although short-cut methods are permitted).Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confirmed that using the nominal annual leave balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual leave liability. On-costs of 17.2% are applied to the value of leave payable at 30 June 2017 (comparable on-costs for 30 June 2016 were 16.7%).The SWSLHD has assessed the actuarial advice based on the SWSLHD’s circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is immaterial to annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater than the benefits accrued in the future.
The SWSLHD's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and State Superannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity , which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.The SWSLHD accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetary revenue item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by the SWSLHD as shown in Note 27. Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of certain factors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using current rates of pay. These factors were determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer’s Directions. The expense for certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For other superannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as a multiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have been recognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers’ compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.

Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policiesfor the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when the SWSLHD transfers the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue isrecognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicareand reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement providesfor the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admittedpatients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
Patient Fees
Department of Veterans' AffairsAn agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of healthservices to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by the SWSLHD on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions.Non admitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge for the use of hospital facilities at rates determined by the NSWMinistry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
Income Recognition
Sale of Goods
Rendering of Services
Investment Revenue
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those personshospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. The SWSLHD recognises the revenue on an accruals basis fromthe time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.Debt Forgiveness
Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when the SWSLHD obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control overcontributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.

Interstate Patient Flows
Land and buildings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which areoperated/occupied by the SWSLHD are deemed to be controlled by the SWSLHD and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given toacquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised inaccordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date. Where payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the deferred payment amount is effectivelydiscounted over the period of credit.
Interstate patient flows are funded through the State Pool, based on activity and consistent with the price determined in the service level agreement.The funding is recognised as recurrent allocation received from the immediate parent.
Refer to Note 1(ad) for assets transferred as a result of equity transfer.
Most assets assets are acquired from Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the immediate parent.
amount of GST incurred by the SWSLHD as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an asset's cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; andreceivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
NSW Ministry of Health Allocations
Accounting for the Goods & Services Tax (GST)
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for the SWSLHD as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly forsalary agreements and approved enhancement projects.This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned inreturn for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
General operating expenses/revenues of $32.5m (net expense), for the following Affiliated Health Organisations, (Braeside Hospital, CarringtonCentennial Care, Karitane, South Western Sydney Scarba Service and STARTTS), have only been included in the Statement of ComprehensiveIncome prepared to the extent of the cash payments made to the Health Organisations concerned. The SWSLHD is not deemed to own or control thevarious assets/liabilities of the aforementioned Health Organisations and such amounts have been excluded from the Statement of Financial Position.Any exceptions are specifically listed in the notes that follow.
Capitalisation Thresholds
Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing andfinancing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.

Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumedover its useful life to the SWSLHD. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their useful lives.
- Linen
To ensure that the carrying amount for each asset does not differ materially from its fair value at reporting date, indices are sourced. The indices reflectan assessment of movements made in the period between revaluations.Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. The entity has assessedthat any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Current Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and AASB140 Investment Property.
- Electro Medical Equipment
Investment property is separately discussed at Note 1(r).Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible andfinancially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the assetbeing measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. In most cases, after taking into account these considerations, thehighest and best use is the existing use. In limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are norestrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants’ perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, costapproach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 20 and Note 23 for furtherinformation regarding fair value.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported.
* Costing less than $200,000 * Costing more than or equal to $200,000 - Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings
Infrastructure Systems
“Infrastructure Systems” means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of theeconomy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
- Computer Equipment
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of thoseassets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation incrementsor decrements.

o) Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment
p) Restoration Costs
q) Non-Current Assets (or disposal groups) Held for Sale
r) Investment Properties
s) Intangible Assets
Where an asset is acquired at no or nominal cost, the cost is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. All research costs are expensed. Developmentcosts are only capitalised when certain criteria are met.The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite.
The SWSLHD does not have any property that meets the definition of Investment Property.
The SWSLHD recognises intangible assets only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the SWSLHD and the cost of the asset can bemeasured reliably. Intangible assets are measured initially at cost.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale are recognised at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. These assetsare not depreciated while they are classified as held for sale.
Investment property is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. However, for not-for-profit entities, property held to meet service deliveryobjectives rather than to earn rental or for capital appreciation does not meet the definition of investment property and is accounted for under AASB 116, Property, Plant and Equipment.
Computer software developed or acquired by the SWSLHD are recognised as intangible assets and are amortised over four years using the straightline method based on the useful life of the asset for both internally developed assets and direct acquisitions. Most computer software is acquired fromthe Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the parent.
As a not-for-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-current assets, but not otherwise.Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset is transferredto accumulated funds.
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as aliability.
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrement inrespect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the netresult.Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists inthe revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
Intangible assets are subsequently measured at fair value only if there is an active market. As there is no active market for the SWSLHD's intangibleassets, the assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount thecarrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount and the reduction is recognised as an impairment loss.
As a not-for-profit entity with no cash generating units, impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant andequipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where thecosts of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for not-for-profit entities given that AASB 136 modifies the recoverable amount test fornon-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, wheredepreciated replacement cost is also fair value.

T-Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The facilities are designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. Information about these assets is provided internally to the SWSLHD's key management personnel.
The SWSLHD subsequently measures investments classified as 'held for trading' or designated upon initial recognition “at fair value through profit or loss” at fair value.Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also classified as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.
Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments and measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed or impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for the year. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financialassets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for anyimpairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. The SWSLHDdetermines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial yearend.
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation arerecognised on the trade date; i.e. the date the SWSLHD commits to purchase or sell the asset.
The movement in the fair value of the T Corp Hour-Glass Investment facilities incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised movements in fair value and is reported in the line item ‘investment revenue’.Held-to-maturity investments – Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the SWSLHD has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held-to-maturity'.These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are recognised in the net result for the year when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
The risk management strategy of the SWSLHD has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of the Public Authorities (Financial Arrangements) Act.T Corp Hour-Glass investments are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing secure investments.
Inventories held for distribution are measured at cost, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Inventories (other than those held fordistribution) are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental toownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.Where a non-current asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair value or,if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the same amount.Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Day-to-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or component ofan asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.

***
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the SWSLHD and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables with no stated interest rate are measured at theoriginal invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
where the SWSLHD has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if the SWSLHD has not retained control.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if the SWSLHD transfers the financialasset: where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairmentlosses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as “available for sale”, must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses offinancial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there notbeen an impairment loss.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the SWSLHD.
Loans are not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss and are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest ratemethod. Gains or losses are recognised in the net result for the year on derecognition.
The SWSLHD recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.Refer to Note 23 and Note 36 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets.
Borrowings include finance lease liabilities. The finance lease liability is determined in accordance with AASB 117, Leases.
A number of the SWSLHD’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets andliabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use ofunobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, the SWSLHD categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based onthe inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
Where the SWSLHD has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transferred control, the asset is recognised to theextent of the SWSLHD's continuing involvement in the asset.A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close ofbusiness on the Statement of Financial Position date.
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impairment. An allowance forimpairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present valueof estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for the year.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result for theyear, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairmentloss previously recognised in the net result for the year.

ad) Equity Transfers
ae) Equity and Reserves(i)
(ii)
(iii)
af) Trust Funds
ag) Adjusted Budgeted Amounts
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by thetransferor because there is no active market, the SWSLHD recognises the asset at the transferor's carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibitedfrom recognising internally generated intangibles, the SWSLHD does not recognise that asset.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount atwhich the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fairvalue.
Accumulated FundsThe category "accumulated funds" includes all current and prior period retained funds.Revaluation SurplusThe revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with the SWSLHD's policy on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment as discussed in Note 1(n).Separate ReservesSeparate reserve accounts are recognised in the financial statements only if such accounts are required by specific legislation or Australian Accounting Standards.
The SWSLHD receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 30.
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative restructure, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof betweenentities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,Contributions and Australian Accounting Interpretation 1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
As the SWSLHD performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of theSWSLHD's own objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statements.
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). TheSWSLHD's budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the SWSLHD's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjustedbudgeted amounts are drawn from the initial Service Agreements between the SWSLHD and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of thefinancial year, as well as any adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budgetat year end (i.e. adjusted budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financial statementsare denoted as "Unaudited".Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note 35.

ah) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards(i)
(ii)NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless NSW Treasury determines otherwise. The following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been applied and are not yet effective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:
Issued but not yet effective
Effective for the first time in 2016-17The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised Australian Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:
AASB 16 Leases applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard introduces a new approach to lease accounting that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases. The application of this standard will likely have a significant transitional impact as all leases, except short term (<12 months) and low value leases, brought on balance sheet.
AASB 1058 Income of Not-for-Profit Entities applies to not-for-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less than the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be impacted depending on whether there is a liability or other performance obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with current practice under AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and associated amending standards AASB 2014-5, AASB 2015-8, AASB 2016-3, AASB 2016-7 and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 for not-for-profit entities. AASB 15 establishes a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers. This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at the transaction price. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction.
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities extends the scope of AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to include application by not-for-profit public sector entities. The application of this standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management Personnel compensation.
AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities is applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. The Entity early adopted this standard in the financial year ended 30 June 2016, which allows for exemption from making certain Level 3 'Fair Value Measurement' disclosures held primarily for current service potential rather than the generation of future net cash inflows.
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 are applicable for reporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. AASB 9 also introduces a forward-looking 'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.

b) Valuation Techniques, Inputs and Processes
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale (Note 22)
For land, buildings and infrastructure systems the SWSLHD obtains external valuations by independent valuers at least every three years. The last revaluation was performed by Liquid Pacific Holdings P/L for the 2015/16 financial year. Liquid Pacific Holdings P/L is an independent entity and is not an associated entity of the SWSLHD.At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to whether any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 20 reconcilation.
South Western Sydney Local Health DistrictNotes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
Fair value measurements recognised in the Statement of Financial Position are categorised into the following levels.
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale is a non-recurring item that is measured at fair value less cost to sell, which is less than its carrying amount. These assets are categorised as level 2.
For buildings and infrastructure, many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method is depreciated replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs. However, residential properties are valued on a market approach and included in level 2.
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most significant input is price per square metre.
All commercial and non-restricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands are not identical.
All of the restricted land has been classified as level 3 as, although observable inputs have been used, a significant level of professional judgement is required to adjust inputs in determining the land valuations. Certain parcels of land have zoning restrictions, for example hospital grounds, and values are adjusted accordingly.
The non-current assets categorised in a) above have been measured as either level 2 or level 3 based on the following valuation techniques and inputs:

The Actual cashflows were favourable to the Adjusted Budget by $6.4m. This was a result of Actual Cash being $10.4m more in Operating Activities, $1.1m less in Investing Activities and $5.1m less in Financing Activities.
Movements in the level of the NSW Ministry of Health Recurrent Allocation that have occurred since the time of the initial allocation on 21 June, 2016 are as follows:
The actual Net Result was higher than adjusted budget by $1 million, primarily due to:
The variance of Net Assets budget to actual was $1m favourable. This was a result of higher Cash and Cash Equivalents actuals to budget due to the additional cash provided to fund Locally Funded Capital Initiatives in the coming financial year. This favourable impact in Assets was offset by higher Liability actuals to budget, particulary in Payables.
Favourability in Total Revenue of $7.1m, mainly due to the TMF Workers Compensation Hindsight Revenue Adjustment (FY11/12 & FY 13/14) of $6.7m. Expense was un-favourable by $2.0m largely as a result of the unfunded portion of the FY17 Workers Compensation premium of $2.6m - refer to Note 2.Additionally there was a $3.7m un-favourability in Other Items, specifically the Patient Fees Provision for Doubtful Debts line item of $3.2m. Management judged the increased provision necessary due to the year on year increase in Ineligible Patient revenue being recognised and the ageing of those Debtor balances being considered impaired.

The SWSLHD's principal financial instruments are outlined below. These financial instruments arise directly from the SWSLHD's operations or are required to finance its operations. The SWSLHD does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.The SWSLHD's main risks arising from financial instruments are outlined below, together with the SWSLHD's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk. Further quantitative and qualitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.
The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the SWSLHD, to set risk limits and controls and to monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed on a continuous basis.
36. Financial Instruments
South Western Sydney Local Health DistrictNotes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
Notes1 Each column in the table reports "gross receivables".
In addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes to settle legal claims. Most of the SWSLHD's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatient treatments.
The SWSLHD is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors that are not past due (2017: $43.569M ; 2016: $49.932M) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $1.258M ; 2016: $1.695M) are not considered impaired.
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either 'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of the Statement of Financial Position. Patient Fees Ineligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.
2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments Disclosures and excludes receivables that are not past due and not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of financial position.
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the SWSLHD. The maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk associated with the SWSLHD's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment of minimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
The TCorp Hour-Glass cash facility is discussed in paragraph (d) below.
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover outstanding amounts, including letters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised when there is objective evidence that the SWSLHD will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and current and expected changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.
Credit risk arises from financial assets of the SWSLHD, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by the SWSLHD. The SWSLHD has not granted any financial guarantees.
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. Interest is earned on daily bank balances at rates of approximately 2.37% in 2016/17 compared to 2.60% in the previous year.

Authority Deposits
(c) Liquidity Risk
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.
The SWSLHD has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual service agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where the SWSLHD fails to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to suppliers (which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular 11/12. For small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered invoice. For other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an invoice or a statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing contract specifies otherwise.
The SWSLHD has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.During the current and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
The SWSLHD has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These deposits are similar to money market or bank deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed for the term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest rate of 2.40% (2016: 1.96%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 2.37% (2016: 2.47%) on a weighted average balance during the year of $38.5m (2016: $37.6m). None of these assets are past due or impaired.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the SWSLHD will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. The SWSLHD continuously manages risk through monitoring future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid assets and liabilities.

2 Accrued Salaries Wages, On-Costs and Payroll Deductions have been excluded from payables as not within the scope of AASB7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. Prior year comparatives have been restated as a result.
The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and other price risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which the SWSLHD operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures in existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through the SWSLHD's interest bearing liabilities.
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. The SWSLHD does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financial instruments, a change of interest rates would not affect net result or equity.A reasonably possible change of +/-1% is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last five years). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The SWSLHD's exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on the SWSLHD's borrowings and other price risks associated with the movement in the unit price of the Hour-Glass Investment facilities. The SWSLHD has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.

Sydney Local Health District
Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2017
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Sydney Local Health District
To Members of the New South Wales Parliament
Opinion
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Sydney Local Health District (the District),
which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2017, the statement of
comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity, the statement of cash flows for the year
then ended, notes comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
information, of the District and the consolidated entity. The consolidated entity comprises the District
and the entities it controlled at the year’s end or from time to time during the financial year.
In my opinion, the financial statements:
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of the District and the consolidated entity as at
30 June 2017, and of their financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.
• are in accordance with section 45E of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983 (PF&A Act) and
the Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015.
My opinion should be read in conjunction with the rest of this report.
Basis for Opinion
I conducted my audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. My responsibilities under the
standards are described in the ‘Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements’
section of my report.
I am independent of the District and the consolidated entity in accordance with the requirements of
the:
• Australian Auditing Standards
• Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants’ (APES 110).
I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with APES 110.
Parliament promotes independence by ensuring the Auditor-General and the Audit Office of
New South Wales are not compromised in their roles by:
• providing that only Parliament, and not the executive government, can remove an Auditor-
General
• mandating the Auditor-General as auditor of public sector agencies
• precluding the Auditor-General from providing non-audit services.
I believe the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my
audit opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
Without modification to the opinion expressed above, I draw attention to the basis of presenting adjusted budget information detailed Note 1 (ae). The note states that AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ is not applicable to the District. It also states that, unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary Reporting’ to present original budget information, the District’s financial statements present adjusted budget information.
The Chief Executive’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Chief Executive is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the PF&A Act, and for such internal control
as the Chief Executive determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Chief Executive must assess the ability of the District and
consolidated entity to continue as a going concern except where operations will cease as a result of
an administrative restructure. The assessment must disclose, as applicable, matters related to going
concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting.
Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Financial Statements
My objectives are to:
• obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error
• issue an Independent Auditor’s Report including my opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not guarantee an audit conducted in
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect material misstatements.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. Misstatements are considered material if, individually or in
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions users take based
on the financial statements.
A description of my responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Auditing
and Assurance Standards Board website at: www.auasb.gov.au/auditors_responsibilities/ar4.pdf.
The description forms part of my auditor’s report.
My opinion does not provide assurance:
• that the District or the consolidated entity carried out its activities effectively, efficiently and
economically
• about the assumptions used in formulating the budget figures disclosed in the financial
statements
• about the security and controls over the electronic publication of the audited financial
statements on any website where they may be presented
• about any other information which may have been hyperlinked to/from the financial statements.
The accompanying notes form part of these financial statements.

SLHD's financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared on an accrual basis and in accordance with
applicable Australian Accounting Standards (which include Australian Accounting Interpretations), the requirements of the Health Services Act 1997
and its regulations (including observation of the Accounts and Audit Determination for Public Health Organisations), the Public Finance and Audit Act
1983 and Public Finance and Audit Regulation 2015, and the Treasurers' Directions. Further information on the unaudited adjusted budget figures can
be found at Note 1(ae).
As a consequence the values in the financial statements presented herein consist of the parent entity and the consolidated entity which comprises the
Parent, Anzac Health and Medical Research Foundation and Special Purpose Service Entity. In the process of preparing the consolidated financial
statements consisting of the controlling and controlled entities, all inter-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated, and like transactions
and other events are accounted for using uniform accounting policies.
SLHD is a NSW Government entity and is controlled by the NSW Ministry of Health, which is the immediate parent. The reporting entity is also
controlled by the State of New South Wales (and is consolidated as part of the NSW Total State Sector Accounts), which is the ultimate parent. The
reporting entity is a not-for-profit entity (as profit is not its principal objective).
These consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2017 have been authorised for issue by the Chief Executive on 5 September
2017.
The financial statements of SLHD have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Secretary of Health, the Chair of Sydney Local Health District Board and the Chief Executive, through the Service Agreement have agreed to
service and funding levels for the forward financial year. The Service Agreement sets out the level of financial resources for public health services
under SLHD's control and the source of these funds. By agreement, the Service Agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity
and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where SLHD fails to meet Service Agreement performance standards, the Ministry of
Health as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance framework requirements, including financial support and
increased management interaction by the Ministry.
Other circumstances why the going concern assumption is appropriate include:
The Anzac Health and Medical Research Foundation is a controlled entity of SLHD conducting medical research on the Concord Hospital
campus and the consolidated entity comprises the Parent, Special Purpose Service Entity and Anzac Health and Medical Research
Foundation.
The parent entity, comprises all the operating activities of the Hospital Facilities and the Community Health Centres under its control. It also
encompasses the Restricted Assets (as disclosed in notes 16 and 24), which, while containing assets which are restricted for specified uses
by the grantor or the donor, are nevertheless controlled by the parent entity.
Sydney Local Health District Special Purpose Service Entity which was established as a Division of the SLHD on 1 January 2011 in
accordance with the Health Services Act 1997. This Division provides personnel services to enable SLHD to exercise its functions.
Basis of Preparation
SLHD, as a reporting entity, comprises all the entities under its control, namely:
The Reporting Entity
Sydney Local Health District (SLHD) was established under the provisions of the Health Services Act 1997 with effect from 1 January 2011.
Sydney Local Health District
Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017
SLHD has the capacity to review timing of subsidy cashflows to ensure that debts can be paid when they become due and payable.
SLHD has developed an Efficiency and Improvement Plan (EIP) which identifies revenue improvement and cost saving strategies. Benefits
from the EIP are retained by SLHD and assist in meeting its overall budget target. The EIP is monitored and evaluated by the Ministry
throughout the financial year.
Allocated funds, combined with other revenues earned, are applied to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
Property, plant and equipment, assets (or disposal groups) held for sale and financial assets at 'fair value through profit and loss' and available for sale
are measured at fair value. Other financial statement items are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention except where specified
otherwise.
Judgements, key assumptions and estimations management has made are disclosed in the relevant notes to the financial statements.
All amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand dollars and are expressed in Australian currency.
Comparative Information
Except when an Australian Accounting Standard permits or requires otherwise, comparative information is disclosed in respect of the previous period
for all amounts reported in the financial statements.

Salaries and wages (including non-monetary benefits) and paid sick leave that are expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the
end of the period in which the employees render the service are recognised and measured at the undiscounted amounts of the benefits.
Annual leave is not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees
render the related service. As such, it is required to be measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119 Employee Benefits (although
short-cut methods are permitted).
Actuarial advice obtained by NSW Treasury, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent, has confirmed that using the nominal annual leave
balance plus the annual leave entitlements accrued while taking annual leave can be used to approximate the present value of the annual
leave liability. On-costs of 17.2% are applied to the value of leave payable at 30 June 2017 (comparable on-costs for 30 June 2016 were
16.7%).SLHD has assessed the actuarial advice based on the SLHD’s circumstances and has determined that the effect of discounting is
immaterial to annual leave.
Unused non-vesting sick leave does not give rise to a liability as it is not considered probable that sick leave taken in the future will be greater
than the benefits accrued in the future.
SLHD's liability for Long Service Leave and defined benefit superannuation (State Authorities Superannuation Scheme and State
Superannuation Scheme) are assumed by the Crown Entity, which is a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
SLHD accounts for the liability as having been extinguished resulting in the amount assumed being shown as part of the non-monetary
revenue item described as 'Acceptance by the Crown Entity of employee benefits'.
Specific on-costs relating to Long Service Leave assumed by the Crown Entity are borne by SLHD as shown in Note 27.
Long Service Leave is measured at present value in accordance with AASB 119, Employee Benefits. This is based on the application of
certain factors (specified in NSW Treasury Circular 15/09) to employees with five or more years of service, using current rates of pay. These
factors were determined based on an actuarial review to approximate present value.
The superannuation expense for the reporting period is determined by using the formulae specified in the Treasurer’s Directions. The expense
for certain superannuation schemes (i.e. Basic Benefit and First State Super) is calculated as a percentage of the employee's salary. For other
superannuation schemes (i.e. State Superannuation Scheme and State Authorities Superannuation Scheme), the expense is calculated as a
multiple of the employee's superannuation contributions.
Consequential costs to employment are recognised as liabilities and expenses where the employee benefits to which they relate have been
recognised. This includes outstanding amounts of workers’ compensation insurance premiums and fringe benefits tax.
The financial statements and notes comply with Australian Accounting Standards which include Australian Accounting Interpretations.
Long Service Leave and Superannuation
Consequential On-Costs
Other Provisions
Finance costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred in accordance with NSW Treasury's Mandate to not-for-profit NSW
general government sector entities.
SLHD's insurance activities are conducted through the NSW Treasury Managed Fund (TMF) Scheme of self insurance for government entities. The
expense (premium) is determined by the Fund Manager based on past claims experience. The TMF is managed by Insurance and Care NSW (iCare),
a controlled entity of the ultimate parent.
Employee Benefits and Other Provisions
Salaries & Wages, Annual Leave, Sick Leave and On-Costs
Statement of Compliance
Other provisions exist when SLHD has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event; it is probable that an outflow of
resources will be required to settle the obligation; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Grants and contributions are recognised as revenues when SLHD obtains control over the assets comprising the contributions. Control over
contributions is normally obtained upon the receipt of cash.
Specialist doctors with rights of private practice are subject to an infrastructure charge for the use of hospital facilities at rates determined by the NSW
Ministry of Health. Charges consist of two components:
SLHD uses a number of facilities owned and maintained by the local authorities in the area to deliver community health services for which no charges
are raised by the authorities.
Rendering of Services
Investment Revenue
A bulk billing agreement exists in which motor vehicle insurers effect payment directly to NSW Health for the hospital costs for those persons
hospitalised or attending for inpatient treatment as a result of motor vehicle accidents. SLHD recognises the revenue on an accruals basis from the
time the patient is treated or admitted into hospital.
Debts are accounted for as extinguished when and only when settlement occurs through repayment or replacement by another liability.
Debt Forgiveness
Use of Outside Facilities
State Insurance Regulatory Authority (SIRA)
Revenue is recognised when the service is provided or by reference to the stage of completion (based on labour hours incurred to date).
Patient fees are derived from chargeable inpatients and non-inpatients on the basis of rates specified by the NSW Ministry of Health. Revenue is
recognised on an accrual basis when the service has been provided to the patient.
Revenue for highly specialised drugs is paid by the Commonwealth in accordance with the terms of the Commonwealth agreement through Medicare
and reflects the recoupment of costs incurred under Section 100 of the National Health Act 1953 for highly specialised drugs. The agreement provides
for the provision of medicines for the treatment of chronic conditions where specific criteria are met in respect of day admitted patients, non admitted
patients or patients on discharge. Revenue is recognised when the drugs have been provided to the patient.
Patient Fees
Department of Veterans' Affairs
An agreement is in place with the Commonwealth Department of Veterans' Affairs through which direct funding is provided for the provision of health
services to entitled veterans. For inpatient services, revenue is recognised by SLHD on an accrual basis by reference to patient admissions. Non
admitted patients are recognised by the Ministry of Health in the form of a block grant.
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest method as set out in AASB 139, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.
a monthly charge raised by SLHD based on a percentage of receipts generated.
the residual of the Private Practice Trust Fund at the end of each financial year, such sum being credited for SLHD use in the advancement of
SLHD or individuals within it.
Use of Hospital Facilities
Where material, the cost method of accounting is used for the initial recording of all such services. Cost is determined as the fair value of the services
given and is then recognised as revenue with a matching expense.
Dividend revenue is recognised in accordance with AASB 118 Revenue, when SLHD's right to receive payment is established.
Grants and Contributions
Highly Specialised Drugs
Income Recognition
Sale of Goods
Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration or contribution received or receivable. Additional comments regarding the accounting policies
for the recognition of revenue are discussed below.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised as revenue when SLHD transfers the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the assets.

Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. However, the GST components of cash flows arising from investing and
financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office are classified as operating cash flows.
Where payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal credit terms, its cost is the cash price equivalent, i.e. the deferred payment amount is
effectively discounted over the period of credit.
Capitalisation Thresholds
Payments are made by the immediate parent on the basis of the allocation for SLHD as adjusted for approved supplementations mostly for salary
agreements and approved enhancement projects.
This allocation is included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income before arriving at the "Net Result" on the basis that the allocation is earned in
return for the health services provided on behalf of the Ministry. Allocations are normally recognised upon the receipt of cash.
Income, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except that the:
General operating expenses/revenues of $12.143 million (Tresillian and Scarba) have only been included in the Statement of Comprehensive Income
prepared to the extent of the cash payments made to the Health Organisations concerned. SLHD is not deemed to own or control the various
assets/liabilities of the aforementioned Health Organisations and such amounts have been excluded from the Statement of Financial Position. Any
exceptions are specifically listed in the notes that follow.
amount of GST incurred by SLHD as a purchaser that is not recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office is recognised as part of an
asset's cost of acquisition or as part of an item of expense; and
receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included.
NSW Ministry of Health Allocations
Accounting for the Goods & Services Tax (GST)
Land and buildings are owned by the Health Administration Corporation, an entity controlled by the immediate parent. Land and buildings which are
operated/occupied by SLHD are deemed to be controlled by SLHD and are reflected as such in the financial statements.
Assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Cost is the amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the other consideration given to
acquire the asset at the time of its acquisition or construction or, where applicable, the amount attributed to that asset when initially recognised in
accordance with the requirements of other Australian Accounting Standards.
Acquisition of Assets
Assets acquired at no cost, or for nominal consideration, are initially recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at measurement date.
Most assets are acquired from Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the immediate parent.
Individual items of Property, Plant & Equipment and Intangibles are capitalised where their cost is $10,000 or above.
Refer to Note 1(ab) for assets transferred as a result of equity transfer.

m) Revaluation of Non-Current Assets
When revaluing non-current assets using the cost approach, the gross amount and the related accumulated depreciation are separately restated.
For other assets valued using other valuation techniques, any balances of accumulated depreciation existing at the revaluation date in respect of those
assets are credited to the asset accounts to which they relate. The net asset accounts are then increased or decreased by the revaluation increments
or decrements.
Non-specialised assets with short useful lives are measured at depreciated historical cost, as an approximation of fair value. The entity has assessed
that any difference between fair value and depreciated historical cost is unlikely to be material.
Details of depreciation rates initially applied for major asset categories are as follows:
Buildings
Physical non-current assets are valued in accordance with the 'Valuation of Physical Non-Current Assets at Fair Value' Policy and Guidelines Paper
(TPP 14-01). This policy adopts fair value in accordance with AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment and AASB
140 Investment Property.
Electro Medical Equipment
Investment property is separately discussed at Note 1(p).
Property, plant and equipment is measured at the highest and best use by market participants that is physically possible, legally permissible and
financially feasible. The highest and best use must be available at a period that is not remote and takes into account the characteristics of the asset
being measured, including any socio-political restrictions imposed by government. In most cases, after taking into account these considerations, the
highest and best use is the existing use. In limited circumstances, the highest and best use may be a feasible alternative use, where there are no
restrictions on use or where there is a feasible higher restricted alternative use.
To ensure that the carrying amount for each asset does not differ materially from its fair value at reporting date, indices are sourced. The indices reflect
an assessment of movements made in the period between revaluations.
Fair value of property, plant and equipment is based on a market participants’ perspective, using valuation techniques (market approach, cost
approach, income approach) that maximise relevant observable inputs and minimise unobservable inputs. Also refer Note 20 and Note 23 for further
information regarding fair value.
Depreciation rates are subsequently varied where changes occur in the assessment of the remaining useful life of the assets reported.
- Costing less than $200,000
- Costing more than or equal to $200,000
Furniture, Fittings and Furnishings
Infrastructure Systems
“Infrastructure Systems” means assets that comprise public facilities and which provide essential services and enhance the productive capacity of the
economy including roads, bridges, water infrastructure and distribution works, sewerage treatment plants, seawalls and water reticulation systems.
Computer Equipment
*Buildings - Leasehold
Motor Vehicle Sedans
Motor Vehicles, Trucks & Vans
Office Equipment
Plant and Machinery
Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the depreciable amount of each asset as it is consumed
over its useful life to SLHD. Land is not a depreciable asset. All material identifiable components of assets are depreciated over their useful lives.

for the year ended 30 June 2017
n) Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment
o) Restoration Costs
p) Investment Properties
q) Intangible Assets
r) Maintenance
s) Leased Assets
The estimated cost of dismantling and removing an asset and restoring the site is included in the cost of an asset, to the extent it is recognised as a
liability.
Intangible assets are tested for impairment where an indicator of impairment exists. If the recoverable amount is less than its carrying amount the
carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount and the reduction is recognised as an impairment loss.
As a not-for-profit entity with no cash generating units, impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets is unlikely to arise. As property, plant and
equipment is carried at fair value or an amount that approximates fair value, impairment can only arise in the rare circumstances such as where the
costs of disposal are material. Specifically, impairment is unlikely for not-for-profit entities given that AASB 136 modifies the recoverable amount test
for non-cash generating assets of not-for-profit entities to the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and depreciated replacement cost, where
depreciated replacement cost is also fair value.
Revaluation increments are credited directly to the revaluation surplus, except that, to the extent that an increment reverses a revaluation decrement in
respect of that class of asset previously recognised as an expense in the net result, the increment is recognised immediately as revenue in the net
result.
Revaluation decrements are recognised immediately as expenses in the net result for the year, except that, to the extent that a credit balance exists in
the revaluation surplus in respect of the same class of assets, they are debited directly to the revaluation surplus.
As a not-for-profit entity, revaluation increments and decrements are offset against one another within a class of non-current assets, but not otherwise.
Where an asset that has previously been revalued is disposed of, any balance remaining in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset is
transferred to accumulated funds.
A distinction is made between finance leases which effectively transfer from the lessor to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to
ownership of the leased assets, and operating leases under which the lessor effectively retains all such risks and rewards.
Where a non-current asset is acquired by means of a finance lease, at the commencement of the lease term, the asset is recognised at its fair value
or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments, at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability is established at the same
amount. Lease payments are allocated between the principal component and the interest expense.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Day-to-day servicing costs or maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred except where they relate to the replacement of a part or component
of an asset, in which case the costs are capitalised and depreciated.
Intangible assets are subsequently measured at fair value only if there is an active market. As there is no active market for SLHD's intangible assets,
the assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.
Computer software developed or acquired by SLHD are recognised as intangible assets and are amortised over four years using the straight line
method based on the useful life of the asset for both internally developed assets and direct acquisitions. Most computer software is acquired from the
Health Administration Corporation, a controlled entity of the parent.
Where an asset is acquired at no or nominal cost, the cost is its fair value as at the date of acquisition. All research costs are expensed. Development
costs are only capitalised when certain criteria are met.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be finite.
SLHD does not have any property that meets the definition of Investment Property.
SLHD recognises intangible assets only if it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to SLHD and the cost of the asset can be measured
reliably. Intangible assets are measured initially at cost.
Investment property is held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. However, for not-for-profit entities, property held to meet service delivery
objectives rather than to earn rental or for capital appreciation does not meet the definition of investment property and is accounted for under AASB
116, Property, Plant and Equipment.

The fair value of investments that are traded at fair value in an active market is determined by reference to quoted current bid prices at the close of
business on the Statement of Financial Position date.
Purchases or sales of investments under contract that require delivery of the asset within the timeframe established by convention or regulation are
recognised on the trade date; i.e. the date SLHD commits to purchase or sell the asset.
Available-for-sale investments - Any investments that do not fall into any other category are accounted for as available-for-sale investments
and measured at fair value. Gains or losses on available-for-sale investments are recognised in other comprehensive income until disposed or
impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in other comprehensive income is recognised in the net result for the
year. However, interest calculated using the effective interest method and dividends are recognised in the net result for the year.
The movement in the fair value of the T-CorpIM Funds incorporates distributions received as well as unrealised movements in fair value and is
reported in the line item ‘investment revenue’.
Held-to-maturity investments – Non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that SLHD has the
positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are classified as 'held-to-maturity'.
These investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Changes are recognised in the net result for the year
when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
The risk management strategy of SLHD has been developed consistent with the investment powers granted under the provision of the Public
Authorities (Financial Arrangements) Act.
T-CorpIM Funds are made in an effort to improve interest returns on cash balances otherwise available whilst also providing secure
investments.
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. These financial
assets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for
any impairment of receivables. Any changes are recognised in the Net Result when impaired, derecognised or through the amortisation process.
Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Investments are initially recognised at fair value plus, in the case of investments not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. SLHD
determines the classification of its financial assets after initial recognition and, when allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this at each financial year
Obsolete items are disposed of in accordance with instructions issued by the NSW Ministry of Health.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, adjusted when applicable for any loss of service potential. Costs are assigned to
individual items of stock mainly on the basis of weighted average costs.
T-CorpIM Funds are managed by New South Wales Treasury Corporation, a controlled entity of the ultimate parent. The facilities are
designated at fair value through profit or loss as the management and performance of these financial assets is undertaken on a fair value
basis, in accordance with a documented risk management strategy. and information about these assets is provided internally on that basis to
SLHD's key management personnel.
SLHD subsequently measures investments classified as 'held for trading' or designated upon initial recognition “at fair value through profit or
loss” at fair value.Financial assets are classified as 'held for trading' if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also
classified as held for trading. Gains or losses on these assets are recognised in the net result for the year.

Where SLHD has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards or transferred control, the asset is recognised to the extent of
SLHD's continuing involvement in the asset.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
All financial assets, except those measured at fair value through profit and loss, are subject to an annual review for impairment. An allowance for
impairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present
value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the net result for the
year.
When an available for sale financial asset is impaired, the amount of the cumulative loss is removed from equity and recognised in the net result for the
year, based on the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any
impairment loss previously recognised in the net result for the year.
Payables are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to SLHD.
Loans are not held for trading or designated at fair value through profit or loss and are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method. Gains or losses are recognised in the net result for the year on derecognition.
SLHD recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.
Refer Note 23 and Note 35 for further disclosures regarding fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets.
Borrowings include finance lease liabilities. The finance lease liability is determined in accordance with AASB 117, Leases.
Any reversals of impairment losses are reversed through the net result for the year, where there is objective evidence, except reversals of impairment
losses on an investment in an equity instrument classified as “available for sale”, must be made through the reserve. Reversals of impairment losses of
financial assets carried at amortised cost cannot result in a carrying amount that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had there not
been an impairment loss.
where substantially all the risks and rewards have been transferred; or
where SLHD has not transferred substantially all the risks and rewards, if SLHD has not retained control.
A financial asset is derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire; or if SLHD transfers the financial asset:
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to SLHD and other amounts. Payables are recognised initially at fair value.
Subsequent measurement is at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Short-term payables with no stated interest rate are measured at
the original invoice amount where the effect of discounting is immaterial.
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets / liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.
A number of SLHD’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and
liabilities. When measuring fair value, the valuation technique used maximises the use of relevant observable inputs and minimises the use of
unobservable inputs. Under AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement, SLHD categorises, for disclosure purposes, the valuation techniques based on the
inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

ag) Changes in Accounting Policy, including new or revised Australian Accounting Standards
(i)
As SLHD performs only a custodial role in respect of these monies, and because the monies cannot be used for the achievement of SLHD's own
objectives, these funds are not recognised in the financial statements.
NSW Health's budget is shown at a consolidated level when presented in parliament each year (i.e. in the NSW Government Budget Papers). SLHD's
budget is not presented in parliament, therefore AASB 1055 Budgetary Reporting is not applicable. Unlike the requirement in AASB 1055 ‘Budgetary
Reporting’ to present original budget information, SLHD's financial statements present adjusted budget information.The adjusted budgeted amounts
are drawn from the initial Service Agreements between SLHD and the NSW Ministry of Health at the beginning of the financial year, as well as any
adjustments for the effects of additional supplementation provided in accordance with delegations to derive a final budget at year end (i.e. adjusted
budget). The budget amounts are not subject to audit and, accordingly, the relevant column entries in the financial statements are denoted as
"Unaudited".
AASB 2015-6 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Extending Related Party Disclosures to Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities
extends the scope of AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures to include application by not-for-profit public sector entities. The application of this
standard has resulted in increased disclosures in the financial statements relating to related party transactions and Key Management
Personnel compensation.
The transfer of net assets between entities as a result of an administrative restructure, transfers of programs/functions and parts thereof between
entities controlled by the ultimate parent are recognised as an adjustment to "Accumulated Funds". This treatment is consistent with AASB 1004,
Contributions and Australian Accounting Interpretation 1038, Contributions by Owners Made to Wholly-Owned Public Sector Entities.
AASB 2015-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Fair Value Disclosures of Not-for-Profit Public Sector Entities is applicable
to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2016. The Entity early adopted this standard in the financial year ended 30 June 2016, which
allows for exemption from making certain Level 3 'Fair Value Measurement' disclosures held primarily for current service potential rather than
the generation of future net cash inflows.
Major variances between the original budgeted amounts and the actual amounts disclosed in the primary financial statements are explained in Note
34.
All other equity transfers are recognised at fair value, except for intangibles. Where an intangible has been recognised at (amortised) cost by the
transferor because there is no active market, SLHD recognises the asset at the transferor's carrying amount. Where the transferor is prohibited from
recognising internally generated intangibles, SLHD does not recognise that asset.
Transfers arising from an administrative restructure involving not-for-profit entities and for-profit government entities are recognised at the amount at
which the asset was recognised by the transferor immediately prior to the restructure. Subject to below, in most instances this will approximate fair
value.
Accumulated Funds
The category "accumulated funds" includes all current and prior period retained funds.
Revaluation Surplus
The revaluation surplus is used to record increments and decrements on the revaluation of non-current assets. This accords with SLHD's
policy on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment as discussed in Note 1(m).
SLHD receives monies in a trustee capacity for various trusts as set out in Note 30.
Effective for the first time in 2016-17
The accounting policies applied in 2016-17 are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as a result of new or revised
Australian Accounting Standards that have been applied for the first time as follows:
SLHD's emerging interest in the Lifehouse Class A Assets, Radiation Oncology Building and Lifehouse Main Building has been valued in accordance
with the Ministry of Health's policy for Accounting for Privately Financed Projects. This policy required SLHD to initially determine the estimated written
down replacement cost by reference to the project's historical cost escalated by a construction index and the asset's estimated working life. The
estimated written down replacement cost was then allocated on a systematic basis over the concession period of 40 years using the annuity method
and the Government Bond rate of 4.74% at commencement of the concession period.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial Statements

(ii)
AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2014-7 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 are applicable for
reporting period on or after 1 January 2018. AASB 9 will replace AASB 139 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and
establishes new principles for the financial reporting of financial assets, financial liabilities and hedge accounting. AASB 9 also introduces a
forward-looking 'expected credit losses' impairment model, which may significantly impact the timing and amount of impairment recognition.
AASB 2016-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards - Disclosure Initiative: Amendments to AASB 107 applies to annual periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2017. The standard amends AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows to require additional disclosures regarding
financing activities in the Statement of Cash Flows. The change is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
AASB 16 Leases applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. The standard introduces a new approach to lease
accounting that requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases. The application of this
standard will likely have a significant transitional impact as all leases, except short term (<12 months) and low value leases, brought on
balance sheet.
AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (and associated amending standards AASB 2014-5, AASB 2015-8, AASB 2016-3, AASB
2016-7 and AASB 2016-8) applies to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 for not-for-profit entities. AASB 15 establishes a
contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine the nature, amount and timing of revenue arising from contracts with customers.
This new standard requires revenue to be recognised when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at the transaction
price. This may impact the timing of recognising certain revenue currently recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the
transaction.
AASB 1058 Income of Not-for-Profit Entities applies to not-for-profit entities and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January
2019. This standard requires entities to recognise income where the consideration to acquire an asset, including cash, is significantly less
than the fair value principally to enable the entity to further its objectives. Under this standard, the timing of income recognition may be
impacted depending on whether there is a liability or other performance obligation associated with the acquired asset, including cash.
AASB 1058 also requires government agencies to recognise income for volunteer services received if the fair value of those services can be
measured reliably and the services would have been purchased if they had not been donated. This is consistent with current practice under
AASB 1004 Contributions and is not expected to materially impact the financial statements.
NSW public sector entities are not permitted to early adopt new Australian Accounting Standards, unless Treasury determines otherwise. The
following new Australian Accounting Standards, excluding standards not considered applicable or material to NSW Health, have not been
applied and are not yet effective. The possible impact of these Standards in the period of initial application includes:

b) Valuation Techniques, Inputs and Processes
Non-Current Assets Held for Sale is a non-recurring item that is measured at fair value less cost to sell, which is less than its carrying amount.
These assets are categorised as level 2.
For buildings and infrastructure and 'Other Assets', many assets are of a specialised nature or use, and thus the most appropriate valuation method
is depreciated replacement cost. These assets are included as Level 3 as these assets have a high level of unobservable inputs. However,
residential properties are valued on a market approach and included in level 2.
For land, the valuation by the valuers is made on a market approach, comparing similar assets (not identical) and observable inputs. The most
significant input is price per square metre.
All commercial and non-restricted land is included in Level 2 as these land valuations have a high level of observable inputs although these lands
are not identical.
The majority of the restricted land has been classified as level 3 as, although observable inputs have been used, a significant level of professional
judgement is required to adjust inputs in determining the land valuations. Certain parcels of land have zoning restrictions, for example hospital
grounds, and values are adjusted accordingly.
The non-current assets categorised in a) above have been measured as either level 2 or level 3 based on the following valuation techniques and
inputs:
For land, buildings and infrastructure systems and 'Other Assets' the SLHD obtains external valuations by independent valuers every three years.
The last revaluation was performed by AON for the 2015/16 financial year. AON is an independent entity and is not an employee of SLHD.
At the end of each reporting period a fair value assessment is made on any movements since the last revaluation, and a determination as to
whether any adjustments need to be made. These adjustments are made by way of application of indices refer, note 20 reconcilation.

SLHD's principal financial instruments are outlined below. These financial instruments arise directly from SLHD's operations or are required to finance
its operations. SLHD does not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
SLHD's main risks arising from financial instruments are outlined below, together with SLHD's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and
managing risk. Further quantitative and qualitative disclosures are included throughout these financial statements.
The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of risk management and reviews and agrees policies for managing
each of these risks. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by SLHD, to set risk limits and controls and to
monitor risks. Compliance with policies is reviewed on a continuous basis.

(b) Credit Risk
Cash
Receivables - trade debtors
Category
Credit risk arises when there is the possibility that the counterparty will default on their contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to SLHD. The
maximum exposure to credit risk is generally represented by the carrying amount of the financial assets (net of any allowance for impairment).
Credit risk associated with SLHD's financial assets, other than receivables, is managed through the selection of counterparties and establishment of
minimum credit rating standards. Authority deposits held with NSW TCorp are guaranteed by the State.
The TCorpIM Cash Funds is discussed in paragraph (d) below.
All trade debtors are recognised as amounts receivable at balance date. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Procedures as
established in the NSW Ministry of Health Accounting Manual for Public Health Organisations and Fee Procedures Manual are followed to recover
outstanding amounts, including letters of demand. Debts which are known to be uncollectable are written off. An allowance for impairment is raised
when there is objective evidence that SLHD will not be able to collect all amounts due. This evidence includes past experience and current and
expected changes in economic conditions and debtor credit ratings. No interest is earned on trade debtors.
Credit risk arises from financial assets of SLHD, including cash, receivables and authority deposits. No collateral is held by SLHD. SLHD has not
granted any financial guarantees.
Cash comprises cash on hand and bank balances deposited within the NSW Treasury banking system. Interest is earned on daily bank balances at
rates of approximately 2.35% to 2.60% in 2016/17 compared to 2.60% to 2.85% in the previous year.
In addition Patient Fees Compensables are frequently not settled within 6 months of the date of the service provision due to the length of time it takes
to settle legal claims. Most of SLHD's debtors are health insurance companies or compensation insurers settling claims in respect of inpatient
treatments.
Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost
N/A
Loans and receivables (at amortised cost)
SLHD is not materially exposed to concentrations of credit risk to a single trade debtor or group of debtors. Based on past experience, debtors that are
not past due (2017: $62.351M ; 2016: $43.566M) and not more than 3 months past due (2017: $4.947M ; 2016: $6.199M) are not considered impaired.

Notes
1 Each column in the table reports "gross receivables".
Authority Deposits
Financial assets that are past due or impaired could be either 'Sales of Goods and Services' or 'Other Debtors' in the 'Receivables' category of the
Statement of Financial Position. Patient Fees Ineligibles represent the majority of financial assets that are past due or impaired.
2 The ageing analysis excludes statutory receivables, as these are not within the scope of AASB 7 and excludes receivables that are not past due and
not impaired. Therefore, the "total" will not reconcile to the receivables total recognised in the statement of financial position.
SLHD has placed funds on deposit with TCorp, which has been rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These deposits are similar to money market or
bank deposits and can be placed 'at call' or for a fixed term. For fixed term deposits, the interest rate payable by TCorp is negotiated initially and is fixed
for the term of the deposit, while the interest rate payable on at call deposits can vary. The deposits at balance date were earning an average interest
rate of 2.37% (2016: 2.44%), while over the year the weighted average interest rate was 2.35% (2016: 2.44%) on a weighted average balance during
the year of $26.525M (2016: $24.921M). None of these assets are past due or impaired.

(c) Liquidity Risk
SLHD has negotiated no loan outside of arrangements with the NSW Ministry of Health or Treasury.
During the current and prior years, there were no defaults of loans payable. No assets have been pledged as collateral.
Liquidity risk is the risk that SLHD will be unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due. SLHD continuously manages risk through
monitoring future cash flows and maturities planning to ensure adequate holding of high quality liquid assets. The objective is to maintain a balance
between continuity of funding and flexibility through effective management of cash, investments and liquid assets and liabilities.
For other suppliers, where settlement cannot be effected in accordance with the above, e.g. due to short term liquidity constraints, contact is made with
creditors and terms of payment are negotiated to the satisfaction of both parties.
SLHD has exposure to liquidity risk. However, the risk is minimised by the service agreement with the NSW Ministry of Health, as the annual service
agreement requires local management to control its financial liquidity and in particular meet benchmarks for the payment of creditors. Where SLHD fails
to meet service agreement performance standards, the Ministry as the state manager can take action in accordance with annual performance
framework requirements, including providing financial support and increased management interaction (refer Note 1).
The liabilities are recognised for amounts due to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not invoiced. Amounts owing to
suppliers (which are unsecured) are settled in accordance with the policy set by the NSW Ministry of Health in accordance with NSW Treasury Circular
11/12. For small business suppliers, where terms are not specified, payment is made not later than 30 days from date of receipt of a correctly rendered
invoice. For other suppliers, if trade terms are not specified, payment is made no later than the end of the month following the month in which an
invoice or a statement is received.
For small business suppliers, where payment is not made within the specified time period, simple interest must be paid automatically unless an existing
contract specifies otherwise.

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. SLHD's
exposures to market risk are primarily through interest rate risk on SLHD's borrowings and other price risks associated with the movement in the unit price
of the Hour-Glass Investment facilities. SLHD has no exposure to foreign currency risk and does not enter into commodity contracts.

However, SLHD is not permitted to borrow external to the NSW Ministry of Health (except energy loans which are negotiated through NSW Treasury).
SLHD's exposure to interest rate risk is set out below.
The effect on net result and equity due to a reasonably possible change in risk variable is outlined in the information below, for interest rate risk and other
price risk. A reasonably possible change in risk variable has been determined after taking into account the economic environment in which SLHD
operates and the time frame for the assessment (i.e. until the end of the next annual reporting period). The sensitivity analysis is based on risk exposures
in existence at the Statement of Financial Position date. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2016. The analysis assumes that all other
variables remain constant.
Exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily through SLHD's interest bearing liabilities.
Both NSW Treasury and NSW Ministry of Health loans are set at fixed rates and therefore are generally not affected by fluctuations in market rates. SLHD
does not account for any fixed rate financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale. Therefore, for these financial
instruments, a change of interest rates would not affect net result or equity.
A reasonably possible change of +/-1% is used consistent with current trends in interest rates (based on official RBA interest rate volatility over the last
five years). The basis will be reviewed annually and amended where there is a structural change in the level of interest rate volatility.
