Interpretation.
2.—(1.) In this Act, unless the contrary intention appears—

(b) expenditure exceeding Five thousand pounds for the purchase of, or otherwise in connexion with, a single item of equipment;
“fees” means tuition, examination, matriculation and other fees payable to a University by a student enrolled at, or applying for enrolment at, the University in connexion with his course of study or attendance at the University, and including fees payable to the University in respect of

“residential college” means a residential college affiliated with, but not administered by, a University;
“special research purposes”, in relation to a University, means purposes in connexion with post-graduate research in the University approved by the Commission as special research purposes, being purposes of such a special nature that, in the opinion of the Commission, they justify the provision of financial assistance under this Act additional to that provided in relation to University purposes generally;

(2.) In this Act, a reference to a Schedule shall be read as a reference to a Schedule to this Act.
Grants for recurrent expenditure.
3.—(1.) In relation to each University specified in a Part of the First Schedule there is payable, in respect of the year to which that Part relates, to the State in which the University is situated, for the purposes of financial assistance—
(a) if the sum of the fees received by the University during that year and the State contributions paid in respect of the University during that year (other than fees or State contributions used for capital expenditure or expenditure on special research purposes) is not less than the amount specified in respect of that University in the second column of that Part—the amount specified in respect of that University in the third column of that Part; or
(b) in any other case—so much of the amount specified in respect of that University in the third column of that Part as bears to that amount the same proportion as the sum of those fees and State contributions bears to the amount specified in respect of that University in the second column of that Part.
(2.) Where the Minister is satisfied that a State contribution paid after the expiration of a year to which this Act applies related to university purposes in respect of that year, he may, in his discretion and with the approval of the State, direct that, for the purposes of this section, that contribution shall be treated as having been paid during that year.
(3.) The financial assistance to a State under this section in relation to a University is granted on the conditions that—
(a) the State will, in respect of each payment of that financial assistance and without undue delay, pay to the University an amount equal to that payment; and
(b) the State will ensure that each amount so paid is applied by the University for expenditure on university purposes, not being capital expenditure or expenditure on special research purposes.
(4.) In the application of this section in relation to the South Australian Institute of Technology—
(a) the reference in sub-section (1.) of this section to fees and State contributions shall be read as limited to fees and State contributions expended on courses of study recognized by the University of Adelaide for the purposes of courses for degrees at that University; and

Variation in salary rates.
4.—(l.) The rate of basic professorial remuneration that is the approved rate for the purposes of financial assistance under this Act is Four thousand two hundred and fifty pounds per annum.
(2.) Where the Minister is satisfied that a University, in a year to which this Act applies, has paid basic professorial remuneration at a rate higher than the approved rate for the purposes of financial assistance under this Act, the Minister may determine that the amount payable under the last preceding section in relation to that University in respect of that year shall be limited to such amount as he considers would have been the amount so payable but for increases in State contributions received by the University by reason of the payment of basic professorial remuneration at a rate in excess of the approved rate and by reason of the effect of the adoption of that rate on other rates of remuneration paid by the University.
Grants for expenditure on University building projects, &c.
5.—(1.) Subject to this section, if a State contribution received by a University specified in the first column of the Second Schedule in the period of three years to which this Act applies was made for the purpose of assisting the University to carry out a project of that University specified in respect of that University in the second column of that Schedule, there is payable under this section to the State in which the University is situated, for the purposes of financial assistance, an amount equal to the State contribution.

(3.) Where a project specified in the Second Schedule consists of, or includes, the erection, alteration or extension of a building, that project shall be deemed to include the provision of furnishings
and equipment, as approved by the Commission for the purposes of this section, for that building, or for the altered parts or the extensions of that building, as the case may be.
(4.) The financial assistance to a State under this section in relation to a project of a University is granted on the conditions that—

(6.) The Commission shall, after consultation with the Universities specified in the Second Schedule, furnish to the Minister, before the thirty-first day of May in each year to which this Act applies, a report on the progress made in the carrying out of the projects specified in that Schedule and as to the work in connexion with those projects that the respective Universities propose to have carried out during the twelve months commencing on the thirtieth day of June in that year.

(b) the amount so expended, and the purpose for which it is expended, have been approved, for the purposes of this section, by the Commission; and

under this section to a State in relation to that University, the Commission may, subject to the approval of the Minister, determine that this section shall have effect as if—
(a) an amount determined by the Commission, not exceeding the amount specified in the certificate of the Minister, were deducted from the amount specified in the Fourth Schedule in respect of that University; and
