Summary:The objective of this paper is to improve completeness, comparability and transparency of the treatment of superannuation in calculating government service costs for the annual Report on Government Services. The approach taken in this paper is to: compare the current treatment of superannuation costs for a number of services across jurisdictions; assess how the choice of the treatment of superannuation costs may affect reported unit cost information; and develop approaches that could be implemented over time to improve the treatment of superannuation costs where the impact of the choice of treatment is material.
