Transportation allocation
 41. (1) The amount of the transportation allocation for a district school board for the fiscal year is determined as follows: 1. Take the amount determined in respect of the board under paragraph 6 of section 41 of the 2008-2009 grant regulation. 1.1 Add to the amount determined under paragraph 1 the amount set out in Column 3 of Table 1.1 opposite the name of the board. 2. Take the 2008-2009 day school average daily enrolment of pupils of the board, within the meaning of the 2008-2009 grant regulation. 2.1 Add to the number determined under paragraph 2 the total of the numbers set out in Columns 2, 3 and 4 of Table 9.2 opposite the name of the board. 3. Divide the 2009-2010 day school average daily enrolment of pupils of the board by the number determined under paragraph 2.1.  If the quotient is less than 1, it is deemed to be 1. 4. Multiply the amount determined under paragraph 1.1 by the number determined under paragraph 3. 5. Determine an amount using the following formula: A × B in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 1, and “B” is the route efficiency factor for the board as set out in Column 2 of Table 11 opposite the name of the board. 6. Total the amounts determined in respect of the board under the following provisions: i. Section 41 of the 2008-2009 grant regulation. ii. Subsection 35 (3) of the 2008-2009 grant regulation. iii. Paragraph 3 of subsection 35 (4) of the 2008-2009 grant regulation. 7. Determine the board’s transportation expenditures for the 2008-2009 school board fiscal year. 8. Subtract from the amount determined under paragraph 7 the board’s revenue from other sources, within the meaning of the 2008-2009 grant regulation, that was applied in the 2008-2009 school board fiscal year against the board’s transportation expenditures. 9. Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 8 from the amount determined under paragraph 6.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 10. Multiply the amount determined under paragraph 1 by 0.02. 11. Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 9 from the amount determined under paragraph 10.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 12. For each month in the fiscal year, other than July and August, calculate an amount using the following formula: [A/(1 + B) – C] ÷ C in which, “A” is the average diesel price for southern Ontario for the month or, in the case of a northern board, the average diesel price for northern Ontario for the month, as reported on the website of the Ministry of Energy, “B” is the current federal goods and services tax rate, and “C” is $0.918 or, in the case of a northern board, $0.938. 13. For each month in which the amount determined under paragraph 12 is greater than 0.03, calculate the amount determined using the following formula: (A – 0.03) × B × 0.012 in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 12, and “B” is the amount determined under paragraph 1.1. 14. For each month in which the amount determined under paragraph 12 is less than –0.03, calculate the amount determined using the following formula: (A + 0.03) × B × 0.012 in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 12, and “B” is the amount determined under paragraph 1.1. 15. Total the amounts, if any, determined under paragraphs 13 and 14. 15.1 Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 6 from the amount determined under paragraph 8.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 15.2 Determine an amount using the following formula: A ´ B in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 15.1, and “B” is, subject to paragraph 15.3, the product determined by multiplying the site participation factor set out in Column 2 of Table 11.1 opposite the name of the board by the effectiveness and efficiency rating set out in Column 3 of the Table opposite the site participation factor. 15.3 In the case of the Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board, the variable “B” in the formula set out in paragraph 15.2 is the sum of the products determined by multiplying each site participation factor for the board set out in Column 2 of Table 11.1 opposite the name of the board by the effectiveness and efficiency rating set out in Column 3 of the Table opposite the site participation factor. 16. Total the amounts determined under paragraphs 4, 5, 11, 15 and 15.2. 17. Determine the board’s expenditure in the fiscal year that is approved by the Minister, based on submissions by the board, in respect of transportation to and from the Ontario School for the Blind, an Ontario School for the Deaf or a demonstration school established by or operated under an agreement with the Minister for pupils with severe communicational exceptionalities. 18.
