What is national funding, exactly?

National funding is, as it sounds, national funds that have been used to support a group, individual, organisation or even a local government. National funding is generally taken from taxes and doled out to suitable applicants in the form of loans or loan guarantee programmes, grants or subsidies. Schools often fund programmes through national funding, as do regional and local governments. Small businesses use nationally backed loans and grants for small business expansion, etc. So there are a lot of recipients of national funding at all ranks and walks of life.
