Explanation
(This amendment captures a balance based on expected "increased participation" grants for the preschool for disadvantaged four-year-olds program. The introduced budget reserved $1.7 million for this purpose as authorized by previous budget language. As of January 31, it is expected that 13 school divisions will receive a total of $1.3 million to expand to serve an additional 575 children.)
