The expenditure on the Government schools (including the cost of inmates boarded out), and the amounts recovered from charitable aid boards, from parents, from the sale of farm produce, &c, are shown in Table W.

TABLE W. —Expenditure on Government Schools, 1898.

Table X shows the payments made on account of inmates in private industrial schools, the recoveries, and the net expenditure by Government in respect of these schools. In the recoveries shown, however, the contributions from Charitable Aid Boards are not included, because the payments are made by the Boards directly to the managers of these schools.
