Australian Capital Territory
Every payment ACT has published, and nothing above it — this government's budget papers are not loaded.
New here? What these numbers mean
A payment is one deal with one company — to build something, run something, or supply something. The money beside it is what the whole deal is worth, from the day it starts to the day it ends. A ten-year deal shows its ten-year price, not one year of it.
So never add those two together. One is a single year of planned spending. The other is the lifetime value of deals, some signed years ago and running for decades. FOCUp keeps them apart for that reason, and so should you when you quote them.
Every figure here was published by the government itself, and every row links back to the page it came from. If FOCUp does not have something, it says so rather than filling the gap.

What ACT publishes
1 of 4 levels below this government
Every government is shown with the same four levels below it, in the same order, so the differences you see are differences in what governments publish — not in how FOCUp lays out a page. Where a level is empty, the reason is the sentence beside it. They are numbered 2 to 5 because the government itself is level 1 — the whole chain is here.

Every figure above comes from one of these publications, and every row in the register carries its own link back to the government's notice. Where a level has no source, it says so and why, rather than leaving a gap.
