For later years, a combined allocation of grant has been made for the core business and the Jubilee line extension project, as follows: 1996–97, £939 million; 1997–98, £648 million; 1998–99, £429 million. The apportionment of grant between the two areas will be determined by London Transport in the light of the precise requirements of the Jubilee line extension. The final allocation of grant at outturn will be reported in the DOT departmental report for the relevant year.
