  33. Australian Constitution澳大利亚宪法 • Specifies exclusive powers of Australian Government: • defence, international trade, external affairs, immigration, currency, postal services etc. • certain tax powers (customs, excise). • Residual powers are left to States but may also be exercised by the Australian Government. • Local government not referred to in Constitution. • Local governments manage local services - roads, water, town planning, rubbish collection.

  35. Size of 3 levels of government三级政府规模

  36. Australian Government Tax Revenue, 2006-07 • Total tax revenue – $217 billion • Personal income taxes - $116 billion (53% of total tax revenue) • Company tax - $59 billion • Excise and customs - $28 billion • 税务收入总额 – $2170 亿 • 个人所得税 - $1160 亿 (占总税收的53%) • 公司税 - $590 亿 • 货物税和关税 - $280 亿 澳大利亚政府税务收入 (2006-07年度)

  37. State tax revenue, 2006-07州政府税务收入 (2006-07年度) • Total State and Territory tax revenue – $85 billion • 州政府税务收入总额 – $850 亿 • 机动车辆税 – $59 亿

  38. 州政府税务收入 (2006-07年度) • 州政府税务收入总额 – $850 亿 • 增值税（GST） - $391 亿 • 自有资源税务收入 - $420 亿 • 薪金税 - $137 亿 • 财产转让税 - $105 亿 • 土地税 - $38 亿 • 赌博税 – $49 亿 • 保险税 – $38 亿 • 机动车辆税 – $59 亿

  39. Australian Loan Council • Established in 1927 to control and coordinate most national and State public sector borrowing. • LC now monitors public borrowings, rather than setting strict borrowing limits. • Intention is to increase transparency to facilitate market scrutiny of government borrowing practices . • LC meets annually in March to consider jurisdictions’ nominated total borrowings for the coming year. • 成立于1927年控制和协调多数国家和州公共部门借款 • 该委员会现在监督公共部门借款功能大于制定借款规定 -意图是提高政府借贷行为市场管理透明度 该委员会每年三月开会讨论下一年各行政区借贷计划

  40. 澳大利亚贷款委员会 • 成立于1927年控制和协调多数国家和州公共部门借款 • 该委员会现在监督公共部门借款功能大于制定借款规定 -意图是提高政府借贷行为市场管理透明度 该委员会每年三月开会讨论下一年各行政区借贷计划

  41. Fiscal Imbalance财政失调 • Ideal for each government to raise (by taxes or borrowings) all the money to fund its spending • States have large service delivery obligations – health, education, roads, police • Australian Government has relatively stronger revenue base to fund its spending obligations in comparison to the States • So Australia’s States rely on funding transfers from the Australian Government • This reduces incentives for States to control spending and provides opportunities for cost and blame shifting 理想的目标是每个政府筹集所有需求资金 州政府有提供大量服务的义务-卫生,教育,公路和警察 澳大利亚联邦政府在履行职责资金面比州政府雄厚 所以,州政府依赖联邦政府的转移支付 -这种状况使州政府控制开支大打折扣并为费用和责任划分提供了机会

  42. Taxation Principles税收政策原则 • Some fiscal imbalance may be justified. • National government best placed to levy taxes if: • The tax aims at economic stabilisation or income redistribution • The tax base is mobile • There are economies of scale in tax administration • There are high compliance costs for taxpayers facing differing tax regimes across different States, or • Tax bases are unevenly distributed among the States 通过税收政策,一些财政不平衡可能会得到调整 考虑下面的因素,中央政府集中征税是最佳选择: 税收目的是稳定经济或收入再分配 非固定的税基 税收统一管理 可以统一税收体制不同州纳税标准或者 对经济发展不同的州给予不同的税务收入返还份额

  43. Federal financial reforms in 2000 联邦与州政府财政关系改革 • 1 July 2000: a new system: • all GST revenue paid to the States • States can spend GST revenue according to their own priorities • removed State reliance on the Commonwealth for financial assistance grants; • States have a direct role in determining the GST base and rate and related operational matters • timetable for the abolition of a range of inefficient State taxes 2000年7月1日: 一个新的财政安排体系. • 在基于联邦与州政府财政关系改革上的政府间的协议中 • 所有给州和领地的增值税(GST)收入，将依照它们自己的预算优先权使用; • 州政府不依赖联邦财政补贴; • 州政府在决策增值税(GST)基数和比率及相关的运作事务上充当直接角色; • 废除一系列的低效的州税项的时间表; • 部委的联邦与州政府财政关系参议会

  44. Equalisation of States’ fiscal capacity州政府财政能力平衡 Equity of access to public services across Australia: • If States make same effort to raise revenue from own sources • And operate at same level of efficiency • Then each State should have the financial capacity to provide services of equal standard. • 澳大利亚各州有享受同等公共服务的权利: • 如果州行政区通过同等的努力在自己管辖的资源范畴内提高收入 • 同时在同等效率下操作 • 那么州行政区应该有能力提供平等标准的服务

  45. Equalisation mechanism均等化分配机制 • Equalisation achieved through distribution of GST revenue – approx $39 bn in 06-07 • Commonwealth Grants Commission (CGC) calculates relative shares for each State • CGC looks both States’ at revenue capacities and expenditure needs • The Treasurer determines each State’s share; States can spend their share as they wish • 均等化通过分配商品和服务税收入实现-06-07财政年度大约是390亿澳元 • 联邦政府拨款委员会计算每个州份额 • 该委员会根据各州收入能力和支出需求决定 • 各州的份额最后由国库部长批准;批准后,各州可以自行安排使用

  46. Effectof fiscal equalisation横向财政平等化的效果 商品和服务税比例 人口比例

  47. Grant revenueas a % of States’ total revenue政府拨款占州政府总收入比例

  48. Specific Purpose Payments专项拨款 • $29 billion in 2006-07 (accounts for 20% of State revenue) • Tied grants – national government specifies where money is spent • Allows the national government to influence policy in areas outside its Constitutional responsibility • 2006-07年290亿占州政府收入20% • 中央政府附加条件拨款-政府指定项目用途 • 允许中央政府在宪法规定权限外施加影响

  49. Accountability问责制 • Aim to enhance transparency • Uniform budget presentation of financial statements • the financial results and projections of all Australian governments must be reported in a uniform way to facilitate transparency and comparison. • Performance reporting requirements in SPP agreements • Auditing of State accounts • 目的是增加透明度 • 统一财政报告中的预算陈述方式 • 特殊拨款协议里有提供资金运行报告的要求 • 对州财政管理进行审计
