| 1. In order to allow annual comparisons,
court expenditures for 1997-1998 and 1999-2000 are estimated, based on the
average between the reporting years immediately preceding and following
the reference period. Prosecutions expenditures for 1997-1998 and 1999-2000
were estimated in similar manner. |
| 2. These expenditures represent spending by legal aid plans only and may not equal government contributions to legal aid plans in a given year. |
| 3. Youth corrections costs are
estimates. The figures likely underestimate total costs. |
