Taith operates on a multi-year project cycle, and Pathways projects are multiple years long and operate on academic years. Funding awarded in one financial year may be spent across several years depending on project delivery timelines. This naturally leads to fluctuations in annual spend, as some projects experience delays and actual spend rolls over into subsequent years.
