Cost Recovery Implementation Statement (CRIS)

Consistent with Australian Government decisions, ASQA will implement full cost recovery from 1 July 2022.

It is an Australian Government requirement that ASQA publish contemporary information about cost recovery via a Cost Recovery Implementation Statement (CRIS). This document provides key information on how ASQA calculates and implements charges for specific regulatory activity.

For more information on ASQA’s cost recovery, please read the new CRIS 2022-23. Further information about cost recovery is also available on the Department of Finance website.

Current Cost Recovery Implementation Statement
2021 - 22

Effective until 1 July 2022

Cost Recovery Implementation Statement from
1 July 2022

ASQA will begin operating as a full cost recovery agency from 1 July 2022. This will involve changes to ASQA’s cost recovery arrangements, including our fees and charges.

The Australian Government Budget 2018–19 announced ASQA would transition from partial cost recovery to full cost recovery by 2020–21. This transition was deferred to 2021-22 as part of a package of measures announced in April 2020 to lift the financial pressures on VET providers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. During this period, ASQA undertook 2 rounds of consultation with the VET sector. Read the 2019 consultation paper and the draft Cost Recovery Implementation statement for 2022-23.

DRAFT Cost Recovery Implementation Statement for 2022-23

As part of reviewing our fees and charges, ASQA engaged with VET sector stakeholders to seek feedback. The second round of consultation for the proposed fees and charges outlined in the draft Cost Recovery Implementation Statement (draft CRIS) closed on 9 February 2022.

ASQA
Two rounds of consultation in 2019 and 2022, which led to:

Effective from 1 July 2022 Cost Recovery Implementation Statement for 2022-23

The final Cost Recovery Implementation Statement for 2022-23 received ministerial approval on 17 March 2022. It incorporated feedback from the 2 rounds of consultation with stakeholders.
