ne school year commencing September 1979, making a total of $2,259,906,000 over the 5 year period. In addition, a total Government capital contribution of $719,001,000 will be required for the ten year period September 1974 to September 1983 (see Table II). These are very substantial figures, and must be viewed against the background of escalating pressures from other social and community needs on our financial resources.
