| Retirement Leave: Employees are entitled to retirement leave or approved early retirement, providing they have completed ten or more years of service and the retirement is the permanent cessation of regular paid employment with the Ministry. Long service leave: Employees who have completed ten years' continuous government service may be granted ten working days' long service leave. A further ten working days are available after completion of twenty years' continuous service. Long service leave must be taken within five years of qualification. Employee entitlements to long service leave and retirement leave are valued on an actuarial basis at six monthly intervals. Mr Bernie Higgins of Aon Consulting New Zealand Limited, an independent consulting actuary, undertook this valuation at 31 December 2005 and 30 June 2006. For the purpose of this valuation the following key assumptions were used:

| 16 Financial instruments The Ministry is party to financial instrument arrangements as part of its everyday operations. These include instruments such as bank balances, accounts receivable and creditors. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk a third party will default on its obligations to the Ministry, causing the Ministry to incur a loss. In the normal course of its business, the Ministry incurs credit risk from debtors and transactions with financial institutions. The Ministry does not require any collateral or security to support financial instruments with financial institutions the Ministry deals with, as these entities have high credit ratings. For its other financial instruments, the Ministry does not have significant concentrations of credit risk. Maximum Credit Risk at 30 June

| Fair value The fair value of all financial instruments is equivalent to the carrying amount disclosed in the Statement of financial position. Currency risk and interest rate risk Currency risk is the risk the amounts recorded as debtors and creditors may fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. Interest rate risk is the risk the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Ministry has no significant exposure to either currency risk or interest rate risk. 17 Contingencies The Ministry does not have any contingent assets as at 30 June 2006 (2005: Nil). Contingent liabilities are separately disclosed in the Statement of contingent liabilities. 18 Related party information The Ministry is a wholly owned entity of the Crown and enters into transactions with other government departments, Crown agencies and state-owned enterprises on an arm's length basis. These transactions are not considered to be related party transactions. 19 Segment information The Ministry undertakes fisheries management activities throughout New Zealand. 20 Major budget variations Statement of financial performance The variations from the initial 2005/2006 Budget Night (Main) Estimates to Supplementary Estimates were due to:
