Alternative Methods. Currently, DHS undertakes similar matching to this program under the Data-matching Program (Assistance and Tax) Act 1990. (DMP). While the DMP addresses similar compliance risks, restriction of the Act has meant overtime, that DHS haven’t been able to introduce efficiencies developed in other matching programs. This has led to DHS’s activity under the DMP to become inefficient for customers and third parties as well as DHS itself when compared to the other compliance activity. The NEIDM program not only opens the door for DHS to recognise efficiencies, it will form part of DHS’s innovative compliance platform for the future. DHS’s will be able to address significantly more non-compliance and do so by empowering customers with more information. It is not possible to conduct this type of compliance activity without the exchange and matching of data. The NEIDM program represent the most efficient and effective alternative to address compliance related to un/under-declared income.
Alternative Methods of Resolution Notwithstanding any/all contrary provisions of Article 22, the parties reserve the right to mutually agree on an alternative grievance resolution process (including but not limited to referring the matter to a single arbitrator), in which case the associated fees and expenses of such alternative process shall be borne equally by the parties to the grievance.

Alternative Methods. There are no practical alternatives to this data matching program, as the relevant data (payroll information) is held by the ATO. Prior Data-matching Programs There has been one data-matching program prior to this Program. This was the Supporting Apprentices and Trainees data matching program. Costs and benefits for Data-matching Programs DESE and the ATO will incur the costs to conduct the data-matching Program, however, these will be offset by the benefits delivered by the Program. The activities described in this Program are part of the 2019-20 Federal Budget Measure – ‘Single Touch Payroll – expansion and new Apprenticeship Data Management System (ADMS) build announced at 2020-21 Budget. The costs include: • New technical solutions to exchange STP data between DESE and the ATO • Data analysis resources to identify and analyse the data to detect data quality issues • Governance resources to ensure compliance with the Guidelines and Privacy Act, and quality assurance processes to ensure the rigor of the work undertaken by analysts and staff • Resources for the purpose of data discovery efforts • Storage of the data. There are benefits for stakeholder groups such as: Employers – A reduction in administrative burden and realisation of benefits of the STP investment due to fewer ad-hoc requests for information from government, accompanied with streamlined processes for ongoing reporting of payroll information. Individuals – Fewer touch points with Government, simplified reporting obligations and greater confidence in the accuracy of payments. Government – There will be more complete evidence base from which to make policy and payment decisions, enhanced integrity of the incentive payment system, reduced overpayments beyond the cessation of apprenticeships, and new opportunities to automate and enhance existing processes to improve government efficiency.

Alternative Methods. (i) You may use other methods to determine a base figure for your overall goal. Any meth- odology you choose must be based on demonstrable evidence of local market conditions and be designed to ulti- mately attain a goal that is rationally related to the relative availability of ACDBEs in your market area.
