18.2How do the changed figures affect any answers previously given to applicant’s questions?

These new figures mean that both question and answer 11.20 are now incorrect. The scope of services covered by the corrected funding includes:

• 
  each of the 12 areas that comprise the State of South Australia, and:
  
• 
  a start date for any contract of 1 March 2017;
  
• 
  ECEI Participants aged 0-6 years whose Initial Plans are due for approval from 1 March 2017 to 30 June 2019; and
  
• 
  existing Participants aged 0-6 years whose plan reviews are due for approval from 1 May 2017 to 30 June 2019 and costs that are associated with the Plan Review activities that occur up to 2 months prior to plan approval (ie. May and June 2017) are included in the months of March 2017 and April 2017.
  

The funding does not include:

• 
  children aged 0 to 6 living in remote areas as defined in Annex A; and
  
• 
  children aged 0 to 6 that are streamed as “super-intensive”.
  

The answer to question 4.2 can be extended with the following words: For the purposes of the draft Grant Agreement, the whole State of South Australia will be treated as one "Service Area" for the provision of ECEI Services.
