The financing gap

What reaching a stated coverage target would cost, against what is being spent now. The requirement is a costed calculation, not a budget request — it is only as good as the unit cost, the target and the population it rests on, and all three are shown.

Scope

A district gap is computed, never apportionedEach district’s requirement is calculated from its own published population projection. The national total is not divided up between districts, so these rows do not sum to it and are not meant to.

Financing gap

No gap has been computed for 2026/27.

A gap needs a costed unit cost, a coverage target and a published population. Where any is missing the Hub reports no gap rather than an estimated one.
