The time remaining on these contracts varies, but can be as long as five years. The total value over the life of all current cleaning contracts is $174m. (2) Contract variations occur due to the movement of transportable classrooms, annual contract reviews and, in some cases, as a result of capital works. (3) The expected total contract cost for 2000-01 is approximately $29m. (4) The total annual cost of the day labour work force prior to the commencement of contract cleaning in 1996 was $37m. (5) At November 2000, 174 Education Department sites. (6) The current cost of cleaning in schools through day labour is $226 000 a fortnight. The total expected expenditure for 2000-01 is $5.9m.
