HC Deb 18 March 1987 vol 112 cc508-13W
Mr. Dobson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will give for each year since 1979 the total income in each region under section 58, section 65 and section 66 of the National Health Service Act 1977; and if he will give these figures (a) in cash terms, (b) deflated to take account of inflation generally, (c) deflated to take account of the movement of National Health Service pay and prices and (d) as a percentage of total National Health Service expenditure.

Mr. Newton

[pursuant to his reply, 24 November 1986, c. 122]: The following figures are derived from the annual accounts of health authorities. Reliable figures for section 58 income are not available for years before 1983–84.

Notes:

  1. 1. The figures in columns b have been adjusted to 1985–86 prices using the gross domestic product deflator.
  2. 2. The figures in columns c have been adjusted to the same 1985–86 base using centrally assessed movements in NHS pay and prices. They should be interpreted with caution as the composition of expenditure in individual regions is bound to vary from the national average. The calculation takes account only of pay and price movements affecting current expenditure by health authorities and does not reflect the different elements making up capital expenditure and that of the family practitioner services.
  3. 3. The total expenditure figures used to calculate the percentages in columns d include all current and capital expenditure by authorities together with expenditure on family practitioner services. The latter expenditure cannot strictly be attributed to particular regions but has been assigned to regions on a geographical basis from the annual accounts of family practitioner committees. The totals used to calculate the percentages for special health authorities do not include any of this expenditure and these figures are therefore not strictly comparable with those for regions.
  4. 4. Percentages too low to round to 0.01 per cent. are omitted.
