Cost recovery implementation statement (CRIS)

Charging framework

The Australian Government Charging Framework helps government agencies to plan, implement and review their charging activities.

The underlying principle is that, where an identifiable individual or group creates extra or specific demand for a specific regulatory activity, they should be charged for the activity. Key considerations for government regulation include whether:

  • there is an identifiable individual or group
  • it is efficient and effective to charge
  • the activity is consistent with Australian Government policy objectives

The Charging Framework has specific requirements for regulatory charging activities. An agency must have policy authority for cost recovery, a statutory basis for charging, expenses and revenue that align, and up-to-date, publicly available documentation and reporting through a CRIS.
