That sentence, in plain words

What this is about

The reserve pays to fight big fires. A bad year costs far more than a good one. The fund sits outside the normal caps.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
