(1) The Minister may approve recurrent funding for a non-government service provider only if the service provider is an approved non-government service provider.

(3) If recurrent funding is approved for a non-government service provider under subsection (2)--

(a) the service provider must take action to become an approved non-government service provider as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving the funding; and
(b) the funding must stop 6 months after it is first given if the non-government service provider has not become an approved non-government service provider within that time.

(4) Recurrent funding may be given to a non-government service provider only if the service provider is a corporation.
