22.—(1) Subject to paragraph (2), where two or more schools are federated under section 24 of the 2002 Act, the local authority may treat them as a single school for the purposes of these Regulations and, accordingly, allocate a single budget share to the governing body of the federation.
(2) Where the local authority decide to allocate a single budget share to the governing body of a federation under paragraph (1) and the amount of that share (‘X’) would be less than would have been allocated to the governing body had the authority allocated a budget share for each school within the federation (‘Y’), the authority must adjust X by adding to it an amount which equates to the difference between Y minus X.
