Central sector schemes and Centrally Sponsored Scheme
 Central sector schemes are 100% funded by the Union government and implemented by the Central Government machinery.
 Central sector schemes are mainly formulated on subjects from the Union List. They account for 11% of the Central Government's expenditure.
 In Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) a certain percentage of the funding is borne by the States and the implementation is by the State Governments.
 Centrally Sponsored Schemes are formulated in subjects from the State List to encourage States to prioritise in areas that require more attention. They account for 10% of Central governments expenditure.
 Usually Centrally Sponsored Schemes are revisited at the end of each five year plan period.
 However, after the discontinuation of Five Year Plan, it has been decided that sunset date will be coterminous with Finance Commission Cycles.
 All the 28 centrally sponsored schemes have Sunset clauses except MGNREGA under Ministry of Rural Development.
