(a) At the time of the 2009-10 budget being presented, the final Capital Heritage and Maintenance allocation for Culture and the Arts portfolio agencies had not been completed. The increase relates to an internal reallocation to reflect the actual 2009-10 capital funding received by the State Library of WA. The net effect within the portfolio is a nil increase in capital funding. The funding is to be used for general maintenance issues.
(b) Nil
