Info on Daniel Morcombe's award from wikipedia "As of 12 December 2008, a total reward of A$1,000,000 ($250,000 from the Government and another $750,000 donated privately) had been offered. The privately donated portion of the reward expired at midnight on 31 May 2009. On this day, the Seven Network reported that a known paedophile (identified by the media as Douglas Jackway) could be of interest to the police. Jackway had been released from prison in 2003, one month before Morcombe's disappearance.[9]"
So that was the same large sum, but it seems this money has all come from the government.
The reward for William is the highest in NSW and it does seem the whole amount is from the NSW government.
