Transportation allocation
 43. (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 20 of subsection 42 (1) of the 2010-2011 grant regulation. 2. Subtract the amount determined in respect of the board under paragraph 19 of subsection 42 (1) of the 2010-2011 grant regulation from the amount determined under paragraph 1. 3. Take the 2010-2011 day school average daily enrolment of pupils of the board, within the meaning of the 2010-2011 grant regulation. 4. Divide the 2011-2012 day school average daily enrolment of pupils of the board by the number determined under paragraph 3. 5. If the quotient obtained under paragraph 4 is equal to or greater than 1, multiply the quotient by the amount determined under paragraph 2. 6. If the quotient obtained under paragraph 4 is less than 1, calculate a number using the following formula: 1 – [(1 – A/B) × 0.5] in which, “A” is the 2011-2012 day school average daily enrolment of pupils of the board, and “B” is the number determined under paragraph 3. 7. If applicable, multiply the number determined under paragraph 6 by the amount determined under paragraph 2. 8. Determine an amount using the following formula: A × B in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 2, and “B” is the route efficiency factor for the board as set out in Column 2 of Table 16 opposite the name of the board. 9. Total the amounts determined in respect of the board under the following provisions: i. Section 42 of the 2010-2011 grant regulation. ii. Subsection 36 (3) of the 2010-2011 grant regulation. iii. Paragraph 3 of subsection 36 (4) of the 2010-2011 grant regulation. 10. Determine the board’s transportation expenses for the 2010-2011 school board fiscal year. 11. Subtract from the amount determined under paragraph 10 the board’s revenue from other sources, within the meaning of the 2010-2011 grant regulation, that was applied in the 2010-2011 school board fiscal year against the board’s transportation expenses. 12. Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 11 from the amount determined under paragraph 9.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 13. Multiply the amount determined under paragraph 2 by 0.02. 14. Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 12 from the amount determined under paragraph 13.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 15. 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 tax rate for the Harmonized Sales Tax under Part IX of the Excise Tax Act (Canada), and “C” is $0.936 or, in the case of a northern board, $0.957. 16. For each month in which the amount determined under paragraph 15 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 15, and “B” is the amount determined under paragraph 2. 17. For each month in which the amount determined under paragraph 15 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 15, and “B” is the amount determined under paragraph 2. 18. Total the amounts, if any, determined under paragraphs 16 and 17. 18.1 Subtract the amount determined under paragraph 9 from the amount determined under paragraph 11.  If the difference is a negative number, it is deemed to be zero. 18.2 Determine an amount using the following formula: A × B in which, “A” is the amount determined under paragraph 18.1, and “B” is the product determined by multiplying the site participation factor set out in Column 2 of Table 16.1 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. 19. Add the amounts determined under paragraphs 8, 14, 18 and 18.2 to the amount determined under paragraph 5 or 7, as the case may be. 19.1 Add the amount set out in Column 2 of Table 17 opposite the name of the board to the amount determined under paragraph 19. 20. Determine the board’s expenses 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. 21. Total the amounts determined under paragraphs 19.1 and 20. 22. In the case of the Lakehead District School Board, add $80,000 to the amount determined under paragraph 21.  O.
