Defence Annual Reports


Annual reports and portfolio budget and additional estimates statements are the principal formal accountability mechanisms between government, departments and the Parliament. Portfolio budget statements set out performance targets for departmental outputs and contributions to desired Government outcomes when funds are appropriated, portfolio additional estimates statements may contain revised targets, and annual reports describe achievement against those targets. Portfolio budget and additional estimates statements for 1997 onwards are also available on our Internet site.

Further information about the Department of Defence can be found under the Information Publication Scheme.

All Statutory Reports have been produced in PDF format and require Acrobat Reader for viewing. If you do not have Acrobat Reader, you can download it from the Adobe web site.
