Statement of Expectations and Statement of Intent
A Statement of Expectations is issued by the Minister for Regional Development, Local Government and Territories to the National Capital Authority to provide clarity about the Australian Government's policies and objectives relevant to the NCA and the priorities the Minister expects the NCA to observe in its operations. The NCA responds to the Statement of Expectations through a Statement of Intent, outlining how the NCA will meet the Government's expectations.

E-Invoicing
As part of government’s Digital Business Plan, Federal Government agencies are to become e-invoicing enabled by July 2022. The good news is that the National Capital Authority has now enabled e-invoicing capability and as such will be able to pay invoices from you in five days if you are eligible and e-invoicing enabled. Other Federal Government agencies who are already e-invoicing enabled are now also paying eligible e-invoices for contracts up to $1 million in value within five days.
What is e-invoicing?
E-invoicing is the automated digital exchange of invoice information directly between a buyer's and supplier's accounting systems. Australia uses the internationally established Peppol e-invoicing framework. This framework contains common standards that allow invoice exchange between different accounting systems. It means invoice processing can be streamlined and invoices can be sent and received in a more secure way than email.
To start using e-invoicing you’ll need to check with your accounting software provider to see if they are offering Peppol accredited e-invoicing capability and what you need to do to be enabled.
Information for businesses who want to get started with e-invoicing is also available on the ATO website. You can also look up the ATO’s E-invoicing accredited service providers listto find who is already registered and offering e-invoicing.
