MMR Helpful Hints

Monthly Management Report

‘Helpful Hints’

This Month’s Tips…

(1) Timeframe for Submission of Employment Agreements

Senators and Members and their employees are reminded of the requirement that completed
employment agreements, and variations to employment agreements, must be received by
Ministerial and Parliamentary Services (M&PS) within six weeks of the commencement date of
the agreement or variation.

Paragraph 5.1.3 of the Senators and Members’ Entitlements handbook refers to the responsibility
of the employing Senator or Member for ensuring that completed employment agreements and
associated documentation are received by M&PS within six weeks of an employee’s
commencement.

Where the above condition is not met, the Commonwealth’s liability for payment of entitlements
associated with the employment of the relevant employee is limited to the period commencing six
weeks prior to the employment agreement or variation being received by M&PS. In addition, until
employment documentation is completed, employees are not entitled to travel and Travelling
Allowance will not be paid.

(2) Proof of Identity

A certified copy of documentation that provides proof of identity and date of birth must be
submitted with each employment agreement under the following circumstances:
•
when commencing MOP(S) Act employment; or
•
upon a change of employing Senator or Member.
A document providing proof of identity may be certified by the Senator or Member or anyone who
is not an immediate family member.  Employment Agreements will not be processed until a
certified proof of identity is supplied.

(3) Original Documentation

When employing staff under the MOP(S) Act, the employing Senator or Member is responsible
for ensuring that the relevant employment agreement and any associated employment
documentation are completed, signed and submitted to Ministerial and Parliamentary Services
(M&PS) with original signatures.

CERTIFICATION OF USE OF ENTITLEMENTS
JULY 2009
I,……………………………………………………………….[print name] confirm that in relation
to the Monthly Management Report:
•  I have read and understand the following Certification Explanatory Statement that describes the
essential elements of each entitlement report;
•  I have examined the transaction details*; and
•  The transactions described** were accessed in accordance with the relevant legislation.
I understand that:
•  It is not appropriate for an authorised person to certify their own use of entitlements; and
•  Knowingly giving false or misleading information is a serious offence under the Criminal Code.
Senator or Member Certification
Part A and Part B (in respect of use of entitlements by an authorised person or all use of entitlements if there is no
authorised person)
Certified by: .................................................................... Date:........................................................
                     Senator or Member
Authorised Person Certification
Part B (Where completed by authorised***person)
Certified by: .................................................................... Date:........................................................
                     Authorised person
* Not including the LeasePlan Transaction Report which is provided for information only.
** If you identify a discrepancy in the Monthly Management Report, please sign the certification 'subject to qualification'. You
should then fax or email the details of the discrepancy to your Entitlements Manager or the Entitlements Management Branch on
facsimile (02) 6267 3279 or email xxx@xxxxxxx.xxx.xx. The record will be reviewed and, if necessary, an updated record sent to
you.
*** Please be aware that a specific authorisation for signing Monthly Management Reports is required.
Senators and Members are asked to certify that their use of entitlements has been in accordance with the Parliamentary
Entitlements Act 1990 (including the Regulations), relevant determinations of the Remuneration Tribunal and the Members of
Parliament (Staff) Act 1984 (together referred to as 'the relevant legislation').

The following Certification Explanatory Statement details the essential elements of each entitlement that may have been accessed
by you, your staff or other persons entitled under the relevant legislation and reported in this Monthly Management Report.
Because the entitlement accrues to you as a Senator or Member, you have the ultimate responsibility to ensure that entitlements
were accessed in accordance with the relevant legislation.

Certification is an important process by which Ministerial and Parliamentary Services is able to comply with its obligations under
the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1997. The certification process is also an integral part of the accountability
framework that serves to protect you from unwarranted criticism regarding your use of entitlements.

Some entitlements you will have personal knowledge of, for example, your own flights or that of your spouse. Other entitlements
may have been accessed by a staff member, of which you may not have personal knowledge, for example, Cabcharge usage or
stationery supplies.

Where you have certified use of an entitlement at a transactional level, you or an authorised person will not be required to certify it
again in this Monthly Management Report.

The certification above is divided into TWO PARTS: Part A: Certification for a Senator or Member personally - includes travel by
(a) self; (b) spouse (c) family (d) Telecard use and (e) residential telephones. Part B: Certification for all staff use of entitlements
and general office/administrative costs - either the Senator or Member or an authorised person may certify this section. ***
The signed certification should be returned to:
