 (5) For the purposes of subsection (6):
 (a) a student with disability and high cost needs is a domestic student enrolled with a provider, who has been assessed by the provider as having disability, and has received from the provider educational support and equipment related to that disability in a calendar year for an amount that exceeds $10,631 in 2023 (subject to indexation under section 40);
 (b) a claim for educational support and equipment means a claim made by a provider with the Department, in relation to the year preceding the year to which a grant relates, and which outlines expenses associated with educational support and equipment provided to a student with disability and high cost needs.
 (6) The amount for students with disability with high cost needs for a provider, for a year, subject to subsection (7), is to be calculated by:
 (a) dividing:
 (i) the sum of the claims for educational support and equipment submitted by the provider, as mentioned in subsection (5), that can be attributed to students with disability and high cost needs in the preceding year; by
 (ii) the total of all claims for educational support and equipment submitted by all Table A providers that can be attributed to students with disability and high cost needs in the preceding year; and
 (b) multiplying the result of (a) by 45 percent of the DSF yearly total (as mentioned in subsection (2)).
 (7) In any case where the amount for students with disability with high costs needs calculated for a provider in accordance is subsection (6) is higher than the expenses associated with the claims for educational support and equipment made by that provider (as mentioned in subparagraph (6)(a)(i)), the amount payable to the provider in respect of those claims is to be no more than the expenses associated with those claims.
 (8) In any year, if the sum of claims for educational support and equipment made by all providers is less than the total of the amounts for students with disability with high cost needs payable to all providers as calculated under subsection (6) (and, where applicable, subsection (7)), the difference is to be added to the enrolments based grant pool mentioned in subsection (4) when calculating the enrolments-based grant amount for a provider.
