Statement of Intent
The Statement of Intent (SOI) outlines the XRB’s strategic intentions for the next five years.
It is prepared no less than every three years in accordance with the requirements of the Crown Entities Act 2004, which was amended in 2013 to require the SOI to have a more strategic content.
Since 2014 our SOI has included its outcome goals, strategic intentions, planned actions to give effect to those strategic intentions, and the basis on which we will report performance. It is intended to be enduring and apply for a minimum of three years.
Before 2014, the SOI was prepared annually and specified the XRB’s forecast performance for the forthcoming financial year, and the following two years. It included forecast outputs to be delivered (and the performance measures for these), and the forecast financial statements and the assumptions on which they are based. This annual performance information is now included in the Statement of Performance Expectations.

Statement of Performance Expectations
The Statement of Performance Expectations (SPE) outlines the XRB’s annual performance objectives.
It is prepared annually in accordance with the requirements of the Crown Entities Act 2004, which was amended in 2013 to require the preparation of an SPE each year from 2014.
Our SPE sets out its reportable output classes, a forecast statement of service performance, and forecast financial statements for the forthcoming year and the assumptions on which they are based. It also specifies how our performance for the year will be measured and reported.
Before 2014 we prepared an Output Agreement. This was an agreement between the XRB and the then Minister of Commerce that specified the outputs to be delivered in the financial year. The Agreement enabled the Minister to monitor and hold the Board accountable for its performance. The SPE has replaced the Output Agreement.
