The figures quoted in Budget Paper 3 are developed by the Department of Treasury and Finance. An amount of $13.4 million of the total of $30 million relates to concessions provided to school students for public transport by the Department for Education and Child Development.

The remaining amount relates to other agencies outside of the Department for Education and Child Development.
