Note: Formula assessments taking into account all outstanding funding for this revenue costs of new hospital development.

It should be noted that the authorities' target percentage formula shares have changed over time as a result of demographic changes and also changes to the structure of the formula.

It should also be noted that the assessments are made before the determination of revenue provision for the years in question and therefore each assessment is based on allocations in the year immediately preceding that for which the assessment is made. The assessments are then taken into account in determining allocations for the years in question via the distribution of such funding as is made

available for equalisation purposes. This is shown in the following tables which express initial revenue allocations for the years in question in terms of distance from the percentage formula targets given in the previous tables and thus show the impact of equalisation funding in reducing the range of difference from target as between authorities.
