NB=Non-Block. In 1994–95 the industry and training programmes became part of the block.

1 The totals shown for the block are not the sum of the figures for block programmes shown against individual votes. They include non-voted items such as local authority credit approvals, and for years before 1990–91, local authority grants which, although paid through the votes, did not score in the planning total.

2 The expenditure covered by these votes has changed over the years as follows: vote 12: 1988–1991, rate rebate grant; 1991–92, water privatisation; 1992–93, no vote; 1993 onwards, OHMCI; vote 13, 1988–89, transport supplementary grants; 1989–91, water privatisation; 1991–93, no vote; 1993 onwards, ERDF.
