5. (1) The Minister shall, before 31 December 1987:

   (a)  by instrument in writing, estimate the number of relevant enrolments
        in respect of the year 1988 at each relevant institution to which
        section 10, 18, 19 or 20 applies; and

   (b)  by instrument in writing, estimate the number of relevant enrolments
        in respect of the year 1988 at the
        Northern Territory tertiary education institution.

(2) Where:

   (a)  the Minister has made an estimate under subsection (1) of the number
        of relevant enrolments at a relevant institution in a State, or at the
        Northern Territory tertiary education institution, in respect of the
        year 1988; and

   (b)  the Minister is satisfied that there will be a significant difference
        between the number of enrolments so estimated and the number that is
        likely to be the number of actual enrolments at that
        relevant institution or at the
        Northern Territory tertiary education institution, as the case may be,
        in respect of the year 1988; the Minister may, before 31 December
        1988, by instrument in writing, revise the estimate so made and, that
        revised estimate shall, for the purposes of this Act, be deemed to
        have been an estimate made by the Minister under subsection (1).

(3) The Minister shall, as soon as practicable after making an estimate under
subsection (1) or revising such an estimate under subsection (2), give a copy
of the estimate or revised estimate to the relevant State Tertiary
Education Minister.
