All valid local applications received a grant offer determined by the following formula:
- The Maximum Grant for each valid application was multiplied by the Assessment Score for that application producing a weighted score (A);
- The total weighted scores (As) for all applications in a county were added together to give a total (T);
- This total figure (T) was divided into the Per Capita County Funding (C) giving a Ratio of total weighted score to the available funding (T to C); and
- The Ratio was then multiplied by A for each application to give the draft recommended allocation to each application.
For national and regional applications, the top scoring two-thirds of valid applications received a grant offer and the same formula was applied to calculate actual grant amounts. This formula was also used for allocations made on foot of successful appeals.
