What is the estimate of my Financial Assistance Grant for next year?

The Commission does not provide estimates of future Financial Assistance Grant allocations for a number of reasons:

• As the annual pool is updated annually for consumer price index (CPI) and population growth, this can change the distribution depending on individual council population movements and if the prior year estimation of CPI was over or understated. The estimation is generally understated, resulting in a minimal increase in cash for each council the following year.
• Annual updates of data used in the calculation will also cause changes in the outcomes from year to year.
