Other factors affecting allocation
(1) This section applies to the allocation of new child care assistance hours
to * centre based long day care services for 1998 and 1999.
Note: After 1999,
* centre based long day care services are not required to hold an allocation
of child care assistance hours--see section 178.
(2) In deciding whether to grant an application for an allocation of new child
care assistance hours, the Secretary must take into account factors relevant
to the nature and quality of the service in respect of which the application
is made.
(3) If the total number of hours applied for in relation to a region or a
category of * centre based long day care service exceeds the number specified
for that region or category in the determination under section 200, the
Secretary must allocate the hours available among services that will best meet
child care assistance needs for centre based long day care in that region, or
in relation to that category (as the case requires).
(4) The guidelines may specify factors to be taken into account by the
Secretary for the purposes of subsections (2) and (3).
