* Items so marked are classified as payments 'through' the States.

(a) The split between the current and capital component has not yet been determined.

(b) The estimates of the 1999-2000 VETFA SPP's included supplementation for the 1998 calendar year but not for 1999 and the outyears. The amount of the supplementation is determined and approved each year by Parliament as an amendment to the Vocational Education and Training Funding Act. At the time of determining the estimates, the 1999 supplementation figure had not been approved and therefore was not included in the estimates calculated. The estimates of amounts to be paid to the States/Territories also did not include payments to be made from funds allocated for VET in Schools, Industry Based Skill Centres, Skill Centres for School Students and Toolbox Development Projects. This money is paid to the States on approval of proposals submitted to the Authority. At the time of preparing the estimates, the final split of funds between individual States and Territories was not known, therefore was not included in the estimated 1999-2000 VETFA SPP's. The actual SPP's made to the States and Territories in the 1999-2000 financial year included payments made from VET in Schools, Industry Based Skill Centres, Skill Centres for School Students and Toolbox Development Projects (approximately $44 million). The actual SPP"s made to theStates and Territories during the 1999-2000 financial year also included the payment of the 1999 supplementation (approximately $14 million). The remainder of the variance between the Estimated VETFA SPP's and the actual payments made to the States and Territories, is mainly due to projects being paid in the1999-2000 financial year that were earlier anticipated to be paid in the 2000-2001 financial year.

(c) The budget estimate for 1999-00 was compiled on a cash basis - $0.500 million was expensed in 1998-99 with $0.500 million cash paid in 1999-00.

(d) The budget estimate for 1999-00 was compiled on a cash basis - $2.777 million was expensed in 1998-99 with $0.906 million retained for 2001-02.
